Responses of 56 (32 women, 24 men) subjects to the Men's Adult Life Experiences Inventory, a 97-item self-report assessment of the frequency and intensity of 11 developmentally related domains (relationships with parent, spouse, children, friends, death, health, job, leisure, sex, self-reflection, and pressure of time) of concerns of middle-aged men and women in India were similar. The men and women differed only in their response to the self-reflection and health domains of the Men's Adult Life Experiences Inventory. This study indicates that there is no midlife crisis in India.
