However, variability in geriatric training and negative age perceptions impact care delivery for older adults. Gerontologists understand aging as a lifelong and multifaceted process. Gerontological theory expands the biomedical model, challenges ageism in research and practice, and advances a holistic yet individualized approach to healthcare. Therefore, the benefits of teaching geriatric PT using a gerontological lens warrant investigation. This case describes a 60-minute seminar introducing gerontological theory to 58 PT students enrolled in a Lifespan II course. Demographic information, the Relational Aging Anxiety Scale (RAAS), and intention to pursue age-related training were collected before and immediately following the seminar. Results reflected statistically significant increases with small effect sizes in student affinity for older adults, decreased internalized ageism and relational ageism immediately after seminar conclusion, as well as greater intent to pursue education in holistic aging. Although case findings are limited, further research on the relationship between gerontology and PT is recommended. Grounding geriatric PT concepts in gerontological theory and best available evidence may enhance students' understanding of aging processes in themselves and others, increase engagement in aging studies, and buffer negative impacts of ageism on health.","PeriodicalId":46431,"journal":{"name":"GERONTOLOGY & GERIATRICS EDUCATION","volume":" ","pages":"399-409"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145287233","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}

Overall, 72.8% of these QI directly impacted clinical care in identifying and managing health conditions by clinicians or through patient education.

Geriatric engineering is an emerging discipline that utilizes the iterative nature of the engineering design process in the development of gerotechnology, defined as compensatory and/or assistive technologies that promote healthy aging. Considering the growth of this discipline, the establishment of interdisciplinary university-based academic partnerships is critical. The paper details a multi-faceted partnership between gerontology and engineering to include two courses on artificial intelligence and machine learning in health care, a faculty development opportunity in gerotechnology, integration of artificial intelligence in nursing homes, identifying and utilizing a dedicated lab space for gerotechnology, conceptual expansion of a simulation model home promoting living-in-place, and the expansion of student mentoring. Additionally, the authors propose a model for fostering academic collaboration.

The course applied films, literature, and structured instructional guides to provide accurate education about aging and repeated virtual contact with images of older adults. Using a single-group pre - post design, ageism was measured with the Fraboni Scale of Ageism among students enrolled in the course (n = 56). Results indicated a statistically significant reduction in ageism following course completion, with a small-to-moderate effect size, Cohen's d = 0.37. Findings suggest that film- and literature-based virtual contact offers a practical and scalable pedagogical approach to reducing ageist attitudes among non-medical college students.

To address this challenge, this study analyzed preservice teachers' initial ideas about older people and their prevalence, following the creation of educational materials to address aging and ageism in Primary Education. A descriptive-interpretative approach was adopted, involving 71 students from the University Degree in Primary Education. A mixed methodology was used, structured in four phases: pre-activity evaluations, development of training proposals to address aging and ageism; final evaluations, and expert evaluation of the training proposals. The results of the pre-activity evaluations identified that 82% of participants held negative stereotypes about older people; after the design of the training proposals, this percentage was reduced to 9%. On the whole, the results derived from the development of the educational material showed effective awareness-raising and a significant improvement in attitudes toward aging. Finally, the expert evaluation detected the persistence of sexist language toward older people in the didactic proposal designed, concluding that, although teacher training at university level effectively combats age discrimination; it is necessary to address discriminatory linguistic biases in the Spanish language to ensure comprehensive awareness among future teachers.","PeriodicalId":46431,"journal":{"name":"GERONTOLOGY & GERIATRICS EDUCATION","volume":" ","pages":"1-14"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148354197","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}
