Abstract：At present, the domestic long-term spatial behavior research has transformed from morphological description to process-oriented research, and pays more attention to process and mechanism of spatial behavior's constructing the urban social space in domestic. This paper attempts to integrate the socio-spatial elements into the life course theory and uses long-term spatial behavior and its socio-spatial effect as main parts of event state to analyze the development evolution and socio-spatial consequences of long-term spatial behavior from the angels of trajectory, transition and duration. Using the timing and transition of event state change to put dynamic change of event state under the historical situation, social power and external impacts in different realms on the macro level in event state changing as well as the impacts on the event state change from individual initiative could be analyzed. Life course theory also can relate the long-term spatial behavior and its social spatial impacts with the factors including institutional environment, and individual features etc. dynamically, and so construct the research framework of internal relationship between longterm spatial behavior (behavior route) and social route and individual route, and of internal relationship between "institutional environment change-individual initiative-spatial behavior (and its socio-spatial effect)". Qualitative research method which should be paid more attention to in life course paradigm for long-term spatial behavior should be laid stress on "reconstruction, shape, embody and regulation" of process of analyzing the social, cultural and institutional background for long-term spatial behaviors. Spatial showing ability should be enhanced for life course research. In addition to describe the describe long-term spatial behavior and its relative life events and social roles, the institutional and system change, individual initiative change also should be stressed as important dimensions for spatial depiction of life path.
