Area of Science:

  • Gerontology
  • Public Health
  • Sociology

Background:

  • Thailand faces a rapidly aging population, highlighting a critical need for structured pre-retirement planning support.
  • Existing societal recognition of aging's impact contrasts with a lack of formal programs for retirement preparation.
  • This study addresses the gap by developing and evaluating a targeted intervention for pre-retirement planning.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate a program designed to enhance pre-retirement preparation for middle-aged adults in Thailand.
  • To assess the program's impact on participants' knowledge and self-reported preparedness for aging.
  • To identify areas for improvement in future pre-retirement planning initiatives.

Main Methods:

  • A quasi-experimental, one-group pre-test/post-test design was utilized.
  • The intervention comprised four weekly 3-hour modules focused on pre-retirement preparation.
  • Participants (N=25, aged 50-59) were assessed before and after the program.

Main Results:

  • A statistically significant increase in overall knowledge of aging was observed post-program (p < .05).
  • Mean scores for self-reported preparedness improved across all aspects, despite no individual significant differences.
  • Participants demonstrated a proactive approach, with 80% reporting prior preparation for aging.

Conclusions:

  • The developed pre-retirement program effectively enhanced knowledge and self-reported preparedness for aging.
  • Findings indicate that such programs can motivate middle-aged adults to proactively plan for future well-being.
  • Future programs should adopt a holistic approach, integrating social life planning alongside health and financial considerations.
