“…Even though evidence did not support retirement planning improving attitudes about retirement before retirement (Reitzes & Mutran, 2004), it does indicate that that those who planned for retirement had a better attitude during their retirement. While focused on a different aspect of retirement than our focus here, one study found that preretirement planning programs promote preretirement socialization, which entails the preparation for retirement through role preparation and development through activities such as learning about retirement, planning for it, and forming accurate expectations for it (Kamouri & Cavanaugh, 1986). This may also aid in creating a more positive attitude about retirement.…”

“…These expectations regarding post‐retirement work and social facets of retirement are important in post‐retirement satisfaction (Kamouri & Cavanaugh, 1986; Wan & Odell, 1983). Past research has suggested that there may be a positive relationship between pre‐retirement expectations and retirement adjustment (cf.…”

Attachment to one's former occupation and met expectations regarding retirement were proposed as predictors of the adjustment of military retirees. While results suggested that occupational attachment had a minimal impact, the extent to which expectations of civilian work, financial, and family aspects of life were met emerged as significant predictors of satisfaction and adjustment after military retirement. These findings suggest that the characteristics of the post‐retirement environment, and expectations regarding this environment, outweigh the importance of occupational attachment in determining post‐retirement adjustment in this setting.

“…Kamouri & Cavanaugh, 1986). For example, if older workers approaching retirement have unrealistic expectation about how they plan to spend their leisure time in retirement or how they are going to structure their time (as found in Beehr & Nielson, 1995), they are much more likely to experience problems in retirement (Shultz, Morton, & Weckerle, 1998).…”

Prospective expectations for retirement and retrospective accounts of past work experiences are typically used in cross-sectional empirical studies of retirement. Unfortunately, little is known about the accuracy of such accounts. Therefore, in the present longitudinal study, we built on the work of Beehr and Nielson (1995) by examining the consistency of these accounts over time using data from 672 military retirees over a four- to five-year period. Mixed evidence for the consistency of these attitudes across time was found. Specifically, our results are much weaker than Beehr and Nielson's results, thus suggesting that longer time intervals between measurements may erode the accuracy of prospective estimates and retrospective accounts. Results are discussed in terms of the uniqueness of the military retirement and how civilian retirement and military retirement are becoming similar.
