Abstract

Military careers demand unwavering dedication and sacrifice, with retirement marking a significant transition to civilian life. This dissertation explores coping strategies, resilience, and retirement preparedness among Indian military personnel nearing retirement. Drawing on the Transactional Model of Stress and Coping, it examines how stressors, coping, and adaptation intersect during retirement. A literature review underscores the challenges of military retirement and the importance of coping and resilience. Using a quantitative approach, the study assesses coping and resilience in military personnel aged 40 to 60 approaching retirement. Findings reveal insights into coping strategies, resilience levels, and retirement readiness, informing policies and interventions to support military retirees. This research advances understanding of the transition from military to civilian life, addressing the unique needs of retiring military personnel.
