In the timing-of-events model,personality development is dependent on

A) specific, age-related maturational processes that occur in a fairly predictable way from one person to the next.
B) crises that occur when people turn 30, then 40, then 50 years old.
C) significant life events that occur at different times for different people.
D) changes in reproductive capacity.

The timing-of-events model suggests that significant life events, such as marriage, parenthood, or retirement, shape and influence personality development. These events occur at different times for different people and can have different effects depending on the individual's circumstances and experiences. The model does not propose specific, age-related maturational processes or define crises that occur at specific ages, so options A and B are incorrect. Option D, changes in reproductive capacity, is not directly related to personality development in the timing-of-events model.
