Form 15 (3/31/86) NSF PROJECT IST-850 5411 EXPERIMENTS ON THE COGNITIVE ASPECTS OF INFORMATION SEEKING AND INFORMATION RETRIEVING USER QUESTIONS FOR ONLINE SEARCHES QUESTION NUMBER: 016 A1. BRIEF TITLE: Prediction of type of activity during retirement A2. QUESTION STATEMENT: The question here concerns 1)what kinds of activities people engage in during retirement and 2)what charactistics and background factors prior to retirement indicate the retirement activity patterns. The notion here is that eventually such information would be useful in pre-retirement counseling. I am most interested in what people do in retirement, although it would probably be relevant to consider how they feel about what they do but not how they feel about retirement in general. TYPE OF SEARCH REQUESTED B. A precise or a broad search: Broad C. Research application: Faculty research-Psychology D. Retrieve articles in English only or any language: English E.
