Abstract
Abstract This research investigated differences in retirement adjustment among workers in occupations classified by the RIASEC typology. The literature reports that this adjustment varies depending on individual access to resources such as health, finances, and personal attributes. The participants were 469 retirees, 65% women, aged between 47 and 88 years, who responded to the Retirement Resources Inventory, the Pearlin Mastery Scale and reported demographic data. The analysis revealed that retirees from social and investigative occupations have more resources and greater adjustment in retirement. Retirees from realistic occupations revealed an unfavorable perspective. Mastery proved to be the most important predictor of adjustment. The results indicate that retirement adjustment resources vary among workers from different occupational types.
