Book excerpt: "Research proves the positive impact of marriage support services on premarital and married couples. This research is relevant to nearly all adults, since most will marry in their lifetime. While statistics predict the population of older adults to grow to an unprecedented amount, only a modest amount of research examines long-term marriages. Change and loss are plentiful for older adults, which has an effect on marriage. This study explores three questions: (1) what are the issues and concerns long-term married couples face as one or both partners transition into retirement; (2) to what extent are professionals (clergy, counselors, researchers) working with older adult couples; and (3) what resources would professionals utilize to create more efficient and successful work with older couples. This study was a mixed-method approach including a couple satisfaction survey given to six couples and compared to a sample of 1,500 couples from PREPARE/ENRICH and interviews completed with couples and professionals. Couples appreciate adjustment within the marriage, leadership distribution, and look forward to growing old with each other. Communication, specifically regarding leisure time and scheduling, household tasks, and aging concerns became apparent themes. Professionals indicated a need for resources to enhance their work with older adult couples. Initiatives need to be taken by clergy, counselors, researchers, and other professionals to engage older adults in marriage support services in an attempt to create more successful aging. In particular, Life Innovations, Inc. needs to create additional resources to help professionals become more effective when working with older adult couples."--leaf 5.

Book excerpt: Successful marriages are not an accident. A lasting marital relationship is the result of loving commitment, self-giving, intimacy, and respect for another person. It is a relationship in which a man and a woman grow together not only in body, but also in spirit. Grow Old Along with Me looks at the many elements that make a marriage more loving and fulfilling as two people grow older. In a mature relationship, spouses recognize and appreciate the good in their marriage, not only in the past, but right here and now. A mature couple is in a unique position to eliminate frustrations as they are drawn ever closer. Intimacy finds a new dimension -- a dimension that moves beyond the physical encounter. This new intimacy binds the couple in a deeper union as they move away from things that disrupt their relationship to become joined in spirit as well as body. Couples growing together in mature intimacy find it easier to adapt to change and to stay interested in each other and in their world. Complete with spousal discussion starters and sections relating to adult children and remarriage after the death of a spouse, Grow Old Along with Me is a celebration of the joys of marriage in the mature years.

Book excerpt: In Retirement for Two, psychologist Maryanne Vandervelde, author of the breakthrough book The Changing Life of the Corporate Wife, and human resources consultant, picks up where the standard retirement guides leave off. Vandervelde helps spouses-- nearing or already in retirement--confront, with honesty, respect, and humour, the conflicts and adjustments unique at this stage of life. Vandervelde doesn't give tax or estate planning, or 401K advice; that she leaves to the money men and women (she does deal with the emotional fallout of money and spending, like not having enough). She explores the challenges for couples, who upon retirement find they have many more choices than ever before, and therefore ample room for disagreement and disappointment. Even couples who think they've experienced it all are often suprised by retirements' special challenges. Retirement for Two offers commonsense advice, tackling such issues as: *Where will you live? Will you downsize? Move south or west? Split time between city and country? Live apart/together for some time each year? *What will you do with your time? *What will your relationships with kids and grandkids be like? *What kind of social life do you want? *What do you each desire for the rest of your lives? What happens when you want different things? Have different goals? *Sex and intimacy. *getting strong, staying healthy, dealing with a spouse's illness. Whether you are already grappling with post-work issues, or are approaching retirement age and thinking about how it is all going to work out, here is an invaluable tool you can use to help your relationship--and yourself--survive and thrive through some of the best years of your life.

Book excerpt: Millions of baby boomers are just beginning to retire, and in doing so many are likely to run into adjustment problems, such as loss of identity, deterioration of marriage and social life, and feelings of disconnectedness to the world. Studies have found that as many as 40% of retirees have difficulty adjusting, and even those who claim to enjoy retirement may experience some uneasiness as they adapt to a life lacking in structure and direction. This book investigates the struggles faced by retirees in building a new life outside of the workforce. It provides an honest assessment of retirement, based on the not-always-acknowledged fact that it is a difficult transition with pitfalls and obstacles to be overcome. But along with uncovering problems, the authors also propose solutions to enable both current and future retirees to be better prepared, allowing them to avoid being blind-sided by unexpected situations. By reading about the experiences of their peers, current and future retirees will come to understand that others share their difficulties adjusting, and that tactics are available to improve their comfort level in retirement as well as their overall well-being. Retirees and those planning for retirement will find in these pages what they need to make retirement successful and enjoyable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our understanding of and interest in how retirement impacts the lives of individuals have grown over the past 20 years. Studies to date have ranged from small, convenience samples composed primarily of men to large, national longitudinal samples of men and women from different professional and socioeconomic backgrounds. There is consensus in the literature that older adults generally function better with a partner; however, gaps remain. We know little about the impact of retirement beyond the individual, although research in other areas on couples has produced evidence of crossover and contagion effects relative to depression and other outcomes, including absenteeism, job stress and positive spillover effects. A major objective of this research was to offer a more holistic perspective of the factors which contribute to retirement adjustment among using dyadic data. A cross-sectional research design was used. The final sample included 183 couples. Structural equation modeling identified predictors of retirement adjustment and well-being in couples. Husbands' and wives' retirement adjustment were found to be highly intercorrelated, but, differences in predictors were found between husbands and wives and their adjustment to retirement. Men were more adversely affected by a forced retirement, and wives had lower levels of well-being than husbands. A forced retirement was not a predictor of retirement adjustment for wives. The relationship between a wife's forced retirement and a husband's well-being was mediated by husband's retirement adjustment. Wives' and husbands' well-being was predicted by health problems. Other positive predictors of retirement adjustment and well-being for wives included maintenance of living standards, low levels of boredom and high levels of social support and leisure activity. These variables also predicted adjustment for husbands. In addition, three other predictors of husbands ' retirement adjustment were found, including: a fully retired work status, higher household income, and retirement plans that remained unaltered. These findings can inform the mental health and counseling practices of professionals serving older adults. It is hoped that this research serves as a basis from which future research may generate ideas and identify other instances of partner and actor effects in retirement adjustment and well-being in older couples.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, more American women than ever before stay in the workforce into their sixties and seventies. This trend emerged in the 1980s, and has persisted during the past three decades, despite substantial changes in macroeconomic conditions. Why is this so? Today’s older American women work full-time jobs at greater rates than women in other developed countries. In Women Working Longer, editors Claudia Goldin and Lawrence F. Katz assemble new research that presents fresh insights on the phenomenon of working longer. Their findings suggest that education and work experience earlier in life are connected to women’s later-in-life work. Other contributors to the volume investigate additional factors that may play a role in late-life labor supply, such as marital disruption, household finances, and access to retirement benefits. A pioneering study of recent trends in older women’s labor force participation, this collection offers insights valuable to a wide array of social scientists, employers, and policy makers.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today's older couples often look and function differently than those of yesteryear. Lifespans have increased, while many health challenges remain. Retirement, spousal role equity, and family caregiving needs look different now, and cultural shifts have shaped the prevalence and visibility of non-traditional older relationships, such as same-sex relationships and ""living apart-together"" relationships. With such an increased variety in relationship forms and social contexts, what does the research say about quality? What factors influence the nature and quality of today's older couple relationships, and what are the complex links between relationships and health? In this cutting-edge book, the authors present the latest theoretical, methodological, and empirical perspectives in the field of middle-age and older couple relationships. The chapters cover a broad range of topics, including the impact of health concerns, loneliness, chronic disease management, couple negotiation of everyday tasks, and coping across the lifespan. Implications for couples therapy and policy are included. In short, the book makes a significant stride into understanding the strengths and challenges of older couples.

Download or read book For Keeps written by Finnegan Alford-Cooper and published by Routledge. This book was released on 1998 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Derived from the author's own survey (the Long island Long-Term Marriage Survey), this book unveils the most important factors contributing to the longevity of marriages. It's based on completed questionnaires from 576 couples, and in-depth follow-up interviews with sixty of these couples, making this the largest survey to date of couples married fifty years or more. The interviews allowed the spouses to tell their life stories (excerpted in the book), and to contrast their marriages to those of younger generations, adding an intergenerational comparative perspective. The author organizes the book around the major life events experienced by her respondents: meeting, courtship, and marriage; having children; conflicts and their resolution; sharing household chores; working spouses; retirement. Throughout, Alford-Cooper has included longer vignettes in which couples tell the stories of their lives together, giving the book a freshness that only first-hand narrative can communicate.
