TY - RPRT T1 - Psychological Adjustment To Widowhood: The Role Of Income, Wealth And Time Y1 - 2010 A1 - Karen C. Holden A1 - Jeungkun Kim A1 - Beatriz Novak KW - Net Worth and Assets KW - Women and Minorities AB - This paper uses data from two longitudinal surveys to examine the relationship between psychological well-being and financial well-being of older women and men, with specific interest in differences by marital status and duration of widowhood. The Wisconsin Longitudinal Study (WLS) provides a look at the consequences of relatively early widowhood. The Health and Retirement Study (HRS) has interviewed a representative sample of individuals 50 and older over the last two decades. We use the data from that survey to examine the adjustment to widow(er)hood over a larger age range, but with likely less precision to measure differences among women of a single age.
