AnnotationA sample of 805 Israelis (432 men, 373 women) on the verge of retirement were interviewed. This study points to the importance of distinguishing between perceptions of gains and losses in the retirement developmental transition; identification of blue collar workers with ambivalent attitudes as a high-risk group; and the importance of a strong sense of coherence in adopting attitudes presumably functional to coping with its developmental transition.
