Abstract: The purpose of this study was to describe the relationship between psychophysiological disorders and psychological well-being during retirement in a group of Argentinian older adults. An ex post facto simple retrospective design was used. 150 older adults (self-sufficient, mixed-gender, of middle socioeconomic status, with stable and formal employment prior to retirement) answered a Socio-Demographic and Retirement Profile Background Questionnaire, a Health Status Questionnaire and the Psychological General Well-Being Index. The results show greater psychological well-being amongst those who presented less psychophysiological disorders related to retirement. These findings coincide with previous research and highlight the importance of studies on psychological well-being as a central aspect in older adult quality of life
