这项纵向研究使用 458 名已婚男女（年龄 50-72 岁）的数据调查了退休过渡与随后的心理健康之间的关系，这些人要么仍在其主要职业工作中，要么已经退休，要么在过去 2 年内刚刚过渡到退休。研究结果表明，退休与心理健康之间的关系必须在时间、生命历程的背景下看待。具体来说，在过去两年内过渡到退休与男性士气较高有关，而“持续”退休则与男性抑郁症状加重有关。结果表明，必须检查有关退休过渡的各种资源和背景（性别、先前的心理健康水平、配偶的情况以及个人控制力的变化、婚姻质量、主观健康状况和收入充足性），以了解退休过渡的动态及其与心理健康的关系。
This longitudinal study investigated the relationship between retirement transitions and subsequent psychological well-being using data on 458 married men and women (aged 50-72 years) who were either still in their primary career jobs, retired, or had just made the transition to retirement over the preceding 2 years. The findings show that the relationship between retirement and psychological well-being must be viewed in a temporal, life course context. Specifically, making the transition to retirement within the last 2 years is associated with higher levels of morale for men, whereas being "continuously" retired is related to greater depressive symptoms among men. The results suggest the importance of examining various resources and contexts surrounding retirement transitions (gender, prior level of psychological well-being, spouses' circumstance, and changes in personal control, marital quality, subjective health, and income adequacy) to understand the dynamics of the retirement transition and its relationship with psychological well-being.
