| Sumario: | [EN]Background: This article presents the protocol for a randomized controlled trial designed to develop and evaluate a psychoeducational intervention aimed at preparing individuals for the challenges and opportunities of the retirement transition. The protocol was developed through a literature review and expert consultation. Methods: The study will be conducted at the Faculty of Psychology of the University of Salamanca (Spain). It will recruit individuals aged 60 years or older who are already retired or who will retire within the next five years. The participants will be randomly assigned to two groups: the intervention group, which will undergo a psychoeducational intervention programme, consisting of 12 sessions over 3 months and the control group, which will engage in a controlled follow-up. All participants will undergo an initial and a final assessment, as well as a 3-month follow-up, collecting socio-demographic data and different assessment instruments. Discussion: This protocol describes a comprehensive psychoeducational intervention aimed at improving quality of life and attitudes towards retirement, increasing life satisfaction, psychological flexibility, perceived social support and general health, self-efficacy and self-regulation, and reducing stereotypes about ageing. Reporting method: CONSORT 2010 guidelines for reporting randomised controlled trials. |
