Peer reviewedAdams, Gary A. – Journal of Vocational Behavior, 1999
A study of 172 older workers found that career commitment and occupational-goal attainment play a central role in planned retirement age. Age and retirement-income satisfaction had the most significant relationship to planned retirement age. Job satisfaction was not strongly related to retirement intentions. (SK)

Peer reviewedBeehr, Terry A.; Glazer, Sharon; Nielson, Norma L.; Farmer, Suzanne J. – Journal of Vocational Behavior, 2000
Three analyses of data from 197 older employees and their spouses identified work and nonwork factors influencing age of retirement. Finances predicted retirement but health and gender did not. Being tired of working and expecting to work for pay after retirement predicted earlier retirement. (SK)
