This mixed-methods action research study explored the effects of an 18-week intergenerational, music-based educational intervention on Indigenous university students' aging knowledge, attitudes toward older adults, and caregiving willingness in Taiwan. Guided by contact theory, transformative learning, and cultural safety frameworks, the program combined classroom learning, structured intergenerational music activities at community care centers, and reflective group sessions. Twenty-two Indigenous students participated in the study. Quantitative results indicated significant improvements in aging knowledge, attitudes toward older adults, and caregiving willingness, with large effect sizes across all measures. Qualitative thematic analysis identified three mechanisms of change: challenging stereotypes and fostering emotional connection through intergenerational contact; perspective transformation through critical reflection; and strengthening cultural identity and caregiving intentions within a culturally safe learning environment. These findings highlight the effectiveness of integrating intergenerational and arts-based approaches with cultural safety principles in gerontological education. This low-cost, scalable model provides an innovative pathway for reducing ageism and cultivating a culturally responsive elder care workforce, particularly among Indigenous students and other culturally diverse groups.","PeriodicalId":46431,"journal":{"name":"GERONTOLOGY & GERIATRICS EDUCATION","volume":" ","pages":"1-20"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-08-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148664709","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on a validated questionnaire, students expressed a combination of affirming and stereotype-based attitudes. While many students viewed later life as meaningful, perceptions of cognitive decline, loneliness and reduced autonomy in later life were frequent. Aging-related fears focused primarily on physical decline and loss of independence. Students recognized the continuing importance of core physiotherapy competencies and emphasized the relevance of communication and psychosocial understanding in geriatric care. When interpreted through the framework of Healthy Aging, the study findings suggest the relevance of shifting from decline-oriented assumptions toward more capacity-oriented and contextual perspectives. While educational implications were not directly examined, early curricular attention to aging, age‑related discrimination and geriatric practice, supported by intergenerational learning and reflective educational approaches, may inform educational strategies aimed at fostering more inclusive attitudes toward aging.","PeriodicalId":46431,"journal":{"name":"GERONTOLOGY & GERIATRICS EDUCATION","volume":" ","pages":"1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148608479","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Service learning (SL) is an educational paradigm that is well situated to potentially address this issue. The purpose of this scoping review was to identify sources investigating SL in the context of dementia care to inform best practices in recruitment and education of the future dementia care workforce. A search across five databases identified 34 relevant studies from 2000 to 2025. Program characteristics including key SL elements and outcome measures across students and service recipients were mapped. Results revealed strong use of key SL elements but variation in the scope, methodology, and rigor of student outcomes measures, with underrepresentation of service recipient perspectives and outcomes. This scoping review highlights next steps for educators to maximize determination of SL feasibility and value across project collaborators and participants. These practices will serve to further augment dementia-based SL as a powerful pedagogical intervention to serve students, the future dementia care workforce, and society.","PeriodicalId":46431,"journal":{"name":"GERONTOLOGY & GERIATRICS EDUCATION","volume":" ","pages":"1-15"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148594020","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A language adapted version of the Working with Older Adults Scale (WOAS) and the Big-Five Inventory 10-Item version were applied. Basic psychometrics were computed, together with EFA, CFA and multivariate statistics in order to know more about the relevance and relationships between the four WOAS subscales and their association with BFI personality domains. Moderate to strong relationships were found between WOAS subscales, in addition to significant correlations between the perceived behavioral control subscale and some personality traits.

A total of 406 high school students from five different school types in Turkey participated in the study. Data were collected using a Personal Information Form, the Assessment of Conflict with Elderly People (ACE), and the Fraboni Ageism Scale (FSA). Group comparisons and correlation analyses were conducted to explore the relationships between key variables, including school type, family structure, maternal education level, co-residence with older adults, and willingness to live with parents in the future. Participants generally exhibited positive attitudes toward older adults. A significant negative correlation was found between levels of intergenerational conflict and levels of ageism (r = -0.398, p < .001), suggesting that students who reported lower levels of conflict with older adults also held more positive attitudes toward them. Levels of ageism differed significantly based on school type, family structure, maternal education, prior co-residence with older adults, and intentions for future cohabitation with parents. In contrast, none of these variables had a statistically significant impact on levels of intergenerational conflict. The findings suggest that while adolescents' attitudes toward older adults are shaped by sociodemographic and familial variables, their perceived intergenerational conflict may arise from other contextual or relational dynamics. This discrepancy highlights the need for targeted interventions to foster intergenerational empathy and communication. The study provides original insights into age-related attitudes among adolescents in a non-Western context and contributes to the broader literature on ageism and intergenerational relations.","PeriodicalId":46431,"journal":{"name":"GERONTOLOGY & GERIATRICS EDUCATION","volume":" ","pages":"426-440"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145764187","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
