Given that it influences the appraisal of situations and the utilization of coping resources, attachment orientation may condition the effects of retirement-related stressors on retiree well-being. Focusing on depression, psychosomatic complaints and health, as well as income decline as a retirement-related stressor, we followed a sample of workers from just before retirement to up to 7 years postretirement. Results indicate that attachment avoidance-but not anxiety-moderates the adverse effects of income decline on well-being, with such effects more pronounced among individuals reporting higher levels of attachment avoidance. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
鉴于依恋取向会影响对情境的评估和应对资源的利用,因此它可能会影响与退休相关的压力源对退休人员幸福感的影响。本研究关注抑郁、心身症状和健康,以及收入下降作为与退休相关的压力源,我们跟踪了一组工人,从退休前一直到退休后 7 年。结果表明,依恋回避——而不是焦虑——调节了收入下降对幸福感的不利影响,对于报告依恋回避程度较高的个体,这种影响更为明显。本文讨论了理论和实践意义。
