During a seminar at the University of Nijmegen in Holland, Prof. Margaret Hellie Huyck examined the influence of sex and gender on development in the second half of life. She began by presenting a framework for analyzing problems during the phase of the life cycle. She then proceeded to examine the consequences of one's sex and sex role for love, friendship and intimacy, as well as for sexuality later in life. She also presented research evidence on the quality of marriage during the second half of the life cycle. Her discussion on personality changes in men and women at mid-life was more extensive and included consequences of these changes for mental health. Since research on these areas is scarce, many questions for research became evident in the course of the seminar. Prof. Huyck ended the seminar by comparing different visions on the development of men and women over the life cycle, including the model which she sees as ideal.
在荷兰奈梅亨大学举办的一次研讨会上，玛格丽特·赫利·惠克教授探讨了性别对人生后半程发展的影响。她首先展示了一个用于分析生命周期阶段问题的框架。接着，她探讨了一个人的性别和性别角色对爱情、友谊与亲密关系，以及对晚年性取向的影响。她还展示了有关生命周期后半程婚姻质量的研究证据。她对中年男性和女性性格变化的讨论更为广泛，包括这些变化对心理健康的影响。由于这些领域的研究稀缺，在研讨会过程中许多研究问题变得显而易见。惠克教授通过比较关于男性和女性在整个生命周期发展的不同观点来结束研讨会，其中包括她认为理想的模型。
