BRIEF INTERVENTION AS A STRATEGY FOR RETIREMENT PLANNING: TURNING INTENTIONS INTO ACTIONS
Abstract
The literature has shown that prior planning and participation in interventions are effective strategies for individuals to experience a successful retirement. The aim of this paper was to investigate relevant changes in the participants' behavior of a brief intervention group on retirement planning. The intervention was based on the transtheoretical model of change and in the implementation intentions theory. The study design was pre-experimental with two, four and eleven months of follow-up. Ten women public employees from 47 to 60 years-old (M = 56, SD = 4.06) participated in the brief intervention group. Content analysis was used to deal with research data. The results showed that the brief intervention enhanced cognitive, motivational and behavioral changes and the most frequent reports were related to the action and maintenance stages in health, social network and occupation. Limitations and recommendations for new studies are discussed.Downloads
