Popis: After a typology is developed based on work satsifaction and attitude toward retirement, profiles are examined of respondents appearing in four typological categories. Data at three points in time (1964, 1966, 1974) from 1,922 older (50 +) employed males suggest that members of some types wilt be more susceptible to negative consequences of life-cycle change (work to retirement) than others. Findings from socioeconomic status, age, social participation, health, community, housing, family, work, morale, and longevity variables indicate preretirement planning approaches should be developed for those having different work-retirement attitudes.
