dc.description.abstractThis study seeks to examine the relationship between current life satisfaction of retirees and the desire retirees, now that they are in retirement, have for further information to improve the quality of retirement life. The study's examination of current retirement life satisfaction and the retiree's desire for additional information to improve the quality of retirement should reinforce stated observations that pre-retirement planning minimizes the negative effects of retirement and increases retirement life satisfaction.en_US
dc.description.abstractA study was made of 180 retirees from a multinational corporation in the southwest to determine the relationship between state of health, educational level, financial level, marital status, and gender and positive life satisfaction in retirement. The retiree's concept of life in retirement was assessed. The results of this study showed that marital status was the most significant factor in positive life satisfaction in retirement for this sample. State of health was also a factor but the level of significance was not as great. There was no relationship between educational level, financial level, and gender and positive life satisfaction in retirement. The sample as a whole had done no pre-retirement planning.en_US
