Objective. The research aimed to determine the extent to which a combination of personality and structural variables explains the perception of retirement losses and gains by educated people in pre-retirement age. Method. One hundred and three people with graduate degrees aged 40 to 68 (average 49 years), 43% women, completed an online questionnaire with socio-demographic items and scales to assess their perception of gains and losses resulting from retirement, willingness to work beyond retirement age, social model of retirement, retirement conceptualizations, leisure experience, financial retirement preparation, and commitments to one's profession. Results. Backward stepwise regression analyses showed that among the thirteen potential predictors of retirement perception, conceptualizations of retirement proved to be the most important. The more participants recognized retirement as an imposed disruption, the less they perceived gains of leaving paid employment and entering retirement, and the more they considered retirement losses. Higher commitments to the profession predicted the consideration of higher retirement gains. The more intense use of leisure time was associated with the perception of lower losses associated with retirement. Conclusions. The results highlight the importance of the way educated individuals transit to retirement since if they conceive retirement as a forced interruption it is associated with negative attitudes towards other aspects (including positive ones) of retirement as well. Limitations. Absence of longitudinal data and convenience sampling, which does not allow for a broader generalization of the results.
