What to Expect When You Retire
Women's labor force participation has steadily increased in the United States since the 1970s, making retirement a relevant concept to women. Current research frequently neglects the unique needs of retiring women and the manner in which women must effectively prepare for retirement. As part of a larger study exploring women's retirement satisfaction, we collected survey data from 230 retired women in a Midwestern state. The qualitative responses…
Development of Ethnic Identity in Young Adults from Immigrant Families
This article explores ethnic identity development among young adults from immigrant families from diverse countries of origin. Based on in-depth interviews with young women and men, the authors examined the formation of ethnic identity through childhood, adolescence, and into young adulthood. Analysis of the participants’ narratives revealed that, compared with fluent bilinguals, limited bilinguals reported weaker connections to their heritage cu…
Retired Women and Volunteering
In this article, we examine varied attitudes and practices toward volunteering in later life, as shared by a group of 40 retired women. We categorize women based on their engagement in retirement and label the categories according to societal expectations as follows: traditional volunteers as "good," nonvolunteers as "bad," and caregiving volunteers as "unrecognized." Using critical gerontology and a feminist framework, we juxtapose the lived exp…
Creating Retirement Paths
Through in-depth interviews with 40 retired women diverse in age, marital status, ethnicity, income, and occupational background, we explored how women experience retirement. Following our analysis, we identified five retirement pathways: family-focused, service-focused, recreation-focused, employment-focused, and disenchanted retirements. These pathways represent dominant activities and interests at the time the women were interviewed and challe…
Exploring the Relationship Between Employment History and Retired Women's Social Relationships
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…
Recruitment Strategies for Conducting Research on Women's Retirement
Currently, little information is available to inform new or returning researchers about designing and conducting research on the topic of women and retirement. Few published studies describe how to access non-probability samples of retired women, yet preliminary evidence suggests women possess distinctive characteristics that affect their retirement as well as complicate the recruitment process. In this article, certain challenges and benefits of…
Investigating Patterns of Social Support Use by Widowers during Bereavement
This study examined the patterns of social support available to widowers during early and late bereavement. It used a social integration framework to assess the levels of social support, social interactions, and sources of support available during bereavement. The analysis included 100 early bereaved widowers and 100 late bereaved widowers from a cross-sectional study on widowerhood among older men. Results indicated widowers from late bereavemen…

Participants provided personal and occupational histories and described their retirement decisions, transitions, and lives in retirement. The women's retirement experiences differed in five areas: (1) attachment to work, (2) professional identity, (3) social contacts, (4) fami…
