By Daniel Butcher<\/a><\/p>\n

Whether people increase or decrease the amount of alcohol they drink after retirement depends on a range of factors, including what role and industry they retire from.<\/p>\n

Academy of Management Scholar Peter Bamberger<\/a> of Tel Aviv University said that he and colleagues studied the implications of general work-related transitions on health and well-being, with a particular focus on subjects\u2019 behavior with regard to drinking alcohol, before and after retirement.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe actually started with people as they move towards retirement, and we did a 10-year study,\u201d Bamberger said. \u201cThe research was finding mixed effects of retirement on alcohol consumption; some studies found that retirement is a great way to address your drinking problems, because you\u2019re often removing people from a high-risk environment where people around them drink a lot.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut other studies were finding that people go into retirement and move into a retirement community and happy hour starts at noon,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Bamberger\u2019s and colleagues\u2019 question was, \u2018Is retirement good or bad with regard to alcohol consumption or misuse?\u2019 They were looking at various factors that determine when a person\u2019s level of drinking goes in one direction and when it goes in the other direction.<\/p>\n

\u201cA simple finding is, if you\u2019re coming out of a high-risk occupation, for example, iron workers, people who build skyscrapers\u2014this is an occupation that has its roots with very heavy drinking communities, so if you joined that occupation, at least in the past, you were likely to adopt those patterns, or you wouldn\u2019t stay in the occupation,\u201d Bamberger said. \u201cSo retiring from that is obviously going to be beneficial, because you\u2019re taking yourself out of a social context of high alcohol consumption.\u201d<\/p>\n

But there are other variables to consider, including relationships with friends, family, and spouses. A best practice for retirees is keeping busy with hobbies, volunteerism, or even some part-time work, any activity aimed at staying engaged and connected and ensuring a continuing sense of self-worth and contribution.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe looked at some of the factors that are associated with retirement, like financial stress and marital strain, with one member of a couple working the other one not, and we can find implications there as well for drinking,\u201d Bamberger said. \u201cThe routine is disrupted; there\u2019s more free time for one partner in the relationship but not the other.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s a vast array of moderating and conditioning factors that determine when retirement has one implication\u2014more drinking\u2014versus another\u2014less drinking,\u201d he said. \u201cRetirees who plan how to structure their time post-separation from work tend to have better health outcomes.<\/p>\n

\u201cOverall, work-related transitions can be difficult for people, and our current research has aimed at exploring the mental-health implications of other such transitions, including for students and soldiers transitioning into career employment for the first time.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
