这项前瞻性研究的目的是(1)评估退休的影响,(2)监测调整随时间的变化,(3)确定预测退休短期和长期调整的资源。本研究以117名男性退休人员为研究对象,分别于退休前2-4个月、退休后1年和退休后6-7年,对他们的身心健康、自我控制感、退休满意度和生活满意度进行了测评。结果支持退休的积极影响。因为退休人员在第一年的幸福感有所增加。还有证据表明,在福利方面(即,从短期退休到长期退休。最后,身体健康,收入和自愿退休状态预测短期调整,而内部控制点是长期调整的额外资源。随着时间的推移,资源的变化也不同地预测了短期和长期的调整(例如,内控点的增加预示着1年后活动满意度的增加,但在退休后6-7个档位时则不然。
The purpose of this prospective study was to (1) evaluate the impact of retirement, (2) monitor the change in adjustment across time, and (3) identify the resources predictive of short- and long-term adjustment in retirement. A sample of 117 male retirees was assessed on indices of physical and psychological health, perceived control, retirement satisfaction, and life satisfaction at 2-4 months preretirement, 1 year post-, and 6-7 years postretirement. The results provided support for a positive impact of retirement. as retirees evidenced increases in well-being during the first year. There was also evidence of a retirement adjustment process, in that aspects of well-being (i.e., psychological health) changed from short- to long-term retirement. Finally, physical health, income, and voluntary retirement status predicted short term adjustment, while internal locus of control was an additional resource for long-term adjustment. Changes in resources over time also differentially predicted short- and long-term adjustment (e.g., an increase in internal locus of control predicted an increase in activity satisfaction at 1 year but not at 6-7 gears postretirement).
