“…Our negative ndings might be because the current older adults with jobs include many of those who were not prepared for retirement and were forced to take a job. In these cases, their jobs are usually low-paying and unstable, so being employed was unlikely to be a protective factor for mental health [40,41]. Future research is needed to determine the in uence of employment status, including the type of job, on the mental health of older adults.…”

Purpose As the baby boomer generation moves into old age, the characteristics of the older population are changing. This study aimed to compare the prevalence of depression and suicidal behavior and examine the different impacts of sociodemographic risk factors based on two nationwide cross-sectional studies conducted a decade apart.Methods We compared representative samples of participants aged 60–74 years from two nationwide surveys in 2011 and 2021. Depression and suicidal behavior were assessed using the Korean version of the Composite International Diagnostic Interview, and the prevalence rates were compared according to study year and gender. We used multivariate logistic regression to determine how sociodemographic risk factors affected depression and suicidal behavior in each study period.Results The prevalence of depression in older adults was higher in 2021 than in 2011, with a notable increase among older men. The prevalence of suicidal behavior was slightly decreased but not statistically confirmed. In 2011, being female was the only risk factor for depression; however, several sociodemographic factors, including non-married, low income, and high education level, were identified as risk factors for depression in 2021. The impact of low-income status on both depression and suicidal behavior was twice as much in 2021 as it was in 2011.Conclusion The prevalence of depression has increased compared to a decade ago, especially among older men. Recently, sociodemographic risks have become more important in late-life depression and suicidal behavior. Mental health promotion for older adults needs to consider sociocultural characteristics and environmental changes.

PurposeDespite the merit of extant studies on career decision regrets, they are not well integrated, are developed at different speeds and differ in focus. Specifically, they do not address an important question about the levels and antecedents of regret arising from choosing entrepreneurship instead of paid employment and vice versa. The authors adopted the regret regulation theory as foundation to examining the moderated effect of entrepreneurial potential (EP) on career choice regret (CCR) among employees and entrepreneurs.Design/methodology/approachThe authors surveyed 721 employees and 724 entrepreneurs from a developing country and applied partial least squares-structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) to test the hypotheses.FindingsEmployees regretted their career choice three times more when compared with entrepreneurs. However, the authors failed to conclude that the latter had three times better living conditions when compared with the former. EP negatively influenced the regret of being an entrepreneur in lieu of an employee while it positively influenced the regret of being an employee in lieu of an entrepreneur. The perceived opportunity cost of being a higher EP employee was three times greater when compared with that of being a lower EP entrepreneur. The effect of EP on CCR was mitigated or amplified by duration in the career, former career status, decision justifiability, and perceived environment's supportiveness.Research limitations/implicationsThe design was cross-sectional, thus, the findings cannot be interpreted in the strict sense of causality.Originality/valueThe authors rely on an important yet often overlooked context of the choice between entrepreneurship and paid employment to test, clarify, and extend the regret regulation theory. The findings have novel human resource management and entrepreneurship policy implications.
