“…First, the study shows that occupational FTP was negatively associated with calendar age, and thereby proving to be a useful variable when testing lifespan theories considering retirement. While lifespan studies have mainly focused on adjustment in the change from work to retirement (Wang & Shultz, 2010), the influence of the decreasing time perspective until retirement has additional value in studies dealing with one's occupational lifespan (Schwall, 2012;Zacher & Frese, 2009). This study further showed that negative age stereotypes are related to early retirement intentions.…”

“…Indeed, it has recently been pointed out that chronological age is only an index and that it is of utmost importance to gain a better understanding of how age‐related changes in psychological variables affect organizational outcomes such as work attitudes (Ng & Feldman, , ; Schwall, ). Drawing on the rich literature on the dispositional sources of work‐related attitudes, one particular developmental process that has specifically been highlighted in this regard involves transitions in personality traits during adulthood.…”
