[Change in daily activities in the transition to retirement in single persons and couples].
Basic changes of daily activities during the period of transition to retirement according to the concept of the household approach are described with the help of results of empirical research. From the point of view of the household approach the transition to the phase of post-professional life is a sophisticated movement which is integrated in households, affects cycles of individual biographies and families just as individual and social structures in general and is linked with one or more changes of position and status from the dual pattern of job and freetime to the monistic private time schedule at the disposition of each household. The interpretations of the singles and couples questioned about their views of the period of transition to retirement are taken into account.
