Abstract
This study, for the first time, examines the relationship between pre‐move relocation preparation with psychological well‐being to job relocation. Psychological reactions of 54 relocators were measured before and after their move. The greater the reported pre‐move relocation preparation the better was the relocators' post‐move mental health and job‐related contentment and enthusiasm. Furthermore, pre‐move relocation preparation was associated with reduced problems during the move and this, in turn, resulted in better post‐move adjustment.
