This study explores the relationship between retired women's employment history and their social integration and social support networks in retirement. Employment history is defined by former occupation (professional, paraprofessional, nonprofessional) and job continuity (discontinuous and continuous). The sample consists of 330 retired women ranging in age from 50 to 83 years, with diverse occupational histories, who were retired an average of 3.5 years. Results indicate occupational status may influence women's social integration, part-time employment, caregiving tasks, and satisfaction with social support. Continuity of employment appears to only marginally influence social integration with no impact on social support or satisfaction with social support.
本研究探讨退休女性的就业历史与其退休后的社会融入及社会支持网络之间的关系。就业历史由以前的职业（专业、准专业、非专业）和工作连续性（间断和连续）来界定。样本包括330名年龄在50至83岁之间、职业历史各异且平均退休3.5年的退休女性。结果表明，职业地位可能会影响女性的社会融入、兼职工作、照料任务以及对社会支持的满意度。就业连续性似乎仅对社会融入有轻微影响，对社会支持或对社会支持的满意度没有影响。
