The Influence of Baby Boomers’ Perceptions of Well-Being on Their Preference in Post-retirement Residential Alternatives as Moderated by Their Affinity for Technology
Get PDFThis study was premised on the idea that baby boomers, like anyone else, desire to maximize their well-being. That is, they seek situations that provide positive emotion, engagement, relationships, meaning and accomplishment (PERMA) which determine their personal appraisal of well-being based on both objective and subjective measures.
Thus, the purpose of the research was to identify the most important PERMA elements of well-being that the baby boomer cohort who have decided to retire but have not yet done so (i.e., pre-retirees), seek in their preference in post-retirement residence. Moreover, this study investigates the degree to which this group sees that choice being influenced by their affinity for technology.
The data for this correlational study was collected through a survey instrument administered to respondents electronically. The responses were analyzed utilizing logistic regression to generate research findings and implications.
The results of this study suggest there is a relationship between the PERMA elements of well-being, singly and collectively, and their preference in post-retirement residence. Further, when considering the impact of affinity for technology on these two variables, the hypothesis of moderation was not significant.
Future research in these two areas is warranted as technological innovations continue to impact the delivery of the elements of well-being, and as baby boomers move through their retirement years, to consider the potential impact on their preferred post-retirement residential alternatives
The Stoic Trinity
Get PDFThe ancient philosophical school of Stoicism has experienced a revival in the past decades. Psychologists created the field of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, inspired by Stoic techniques; self-help authors picked and chose from the Stoic canon to provide strategies for personal effectiveness; and academics attempted to reformulate Stoic theory on purely rational grounds. Yet, can Stoicism be the answer to our modern predicament of anxiousness and confusion? Can it help us live happy lives today, that is to say, satisfying lives that makes sense, and are full of purpose and meaning? In this thesis, I argue that today one still needs to make Stoicism a ‘way of life’ in order to achieve the good life. To be effective, the modernized version of Stoicism must provide a complete and cohesive system grounded on a worldview and a set of values, reinterpreted for our age. It must also command an active engagement in society and a focus on practice
