Psychosocial Aspects of Retirement in Old Age
摘要
Retirement is a period in one’s life that many adults look forward to while in their career. One would hope that retirement is a time in which everyone is able to enjoy life with family and friends without the daily anxieties and stressors of being in the workforce. However, it seems that this transition comes with a change of pace in life with new and different stressors one might not anticipate. In this chapter, we will discuss the benefits and stressors of retirement and how this is influenced by age, gender, and country of origin.
