Positive stereotypes (e.g., "older and wiser") may provide a benefit to the relevant groups. However, negative stereotypes of aging and of disability continue to persist and, in some cases, remain socially acceptable. Research has shown that when exposed to negative images of aging, older persons demonstrate poor physical and cognitive performance and function, while those who are exposed to positive images of aging (or who have positive self-perceptions of aging) demonstrate better performance and function. Furthermore, an individual's expectations about and perceptions of aging can predict future health outcomes. To better understand how stereotypes affect older adults and individuals with disabilities, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, with support from AARP, convened a public workshop on October 10, 2017. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop"--Publisher's description.Stereotypes (Social psychology)Older peopleAttitudesOld agePublic opinionStereotypes (Social psychology)CongressesStereotypes (Social psychology)Older peopleAttitudes.Old agePublic opinion.Stereotypes (Social psychology)303.385Lustig Tracy A.Cilio Caroline M.Forum on Aging, Disability, and Independence,National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (U.S.).Board on Health Sciences Policy,National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (U.S.).Health and Medicine Division,National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (U.S.).Division of Behavioral and Social Sciences and Education,MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910796716103321Aging and disability3761379UNINA
