Determining reliability and validity of the Transition to Retirement Questionnaire and its relationship with resistance to change (case study: teachers nearing retirement)
The aim of this research was to determine reliability and validity of the Transition to Retirement Questionnaire (TRQ) and to study its relationship with resistance to change. Based on Schlossberg’s typology of the retired, the TRQ is designed by Maggiori, Nihil, Froidevaux and Rossier (2013) to assess five dimensions related to personal perceptions of transition to retirement, retirement, and personal plans and activities. The questionnaire on the sample of 315 teachers who have a history of more than twenty years was conducted. Cronbach's alpha was used to determine reliability of the questionnaire. From 0/70 to 0/94 reliability five factors were obtained. Confirmatory factor analysis was used to determine validity of the questionnaire. The results indicate suitability of the five-factor structure of the questionnaire. The results of the relationship between resistance to change and the transition to retirement also indicated that routine seeking has a negative relationship with adventure, but routine seeking, emotional reaction and short-term focus have the positive relationship with searcher and retreater (p<0.01).
