Causal Effects of Retirement Timing on Subjective Physical and Emotional Health

Using panel data from the Health and Retirement Study (HRS), we test 4 theory-based hypotheses about these effects-that retirements maximize health when they happen earlier, later, anytime, or on time. METHOD: We employ fixed and random effects regression models with instrumental variables to estimate the short- and long-term cau…

Men are similar across race in terms of emotional and practical help, although black men are les…
