The Extent and Correlates of Partial Retirement.

Quinn, Joseph F.

Gerontologist, v21 n6 p634-43 Dec 1981

Examined partial retirement among older self-employed and wage and salary workers. Found much more partial retirement among the self-employed. Retirement status was correlated with health, age, Social Security and pension eligibility, and wealth. Suggests workers might choose part-time employment if opportunities were available.
