English term or phrase: simple trends

Geschichtsbuch/ Biografie vom Schweizer Jürg Jenatsch, der im 17.Jahrhundert gelebt, politisiert und gekämpft hat. Kontext: theoretischer Teil: "It is important to recognize that neither confessionalization nor secularization necessarily meant that people were becoming more or less spiritual: what these terms describe are shifting relationships between religious and other forms of identification and motivation, rather than the degree of religiosity itself.
Such general terms are not well suited to describing the complex internal dynamics of a single community or a single individual, though. Some of the most interesting recent studies have concentrated exactly on these dynamics, leaving the question of larger trends aside. What such studies show most clearly is that at the level of particular individuals, such as Jenatsch, simple trends and clear changes are hard to pin down. Transformation is therefore the key to this chapter, which follows Jenatsch's spiritual commitments from the young pastor's zeal to the seasoned soldier's prudence" larger trends hab ich mit generellen Entwicklungen übersetzt. Was meint ihr dazu? Und simpel trends= einfache Entwicklungen?
