摘要

年龄歧视是一种世界范围内迅速发生的现象，并导致利益相关者考虑可以为老年人福利计划的战略。由于预计老年人口将增加，政策制定者、医疗保健部门领导人和领导人必须迅速采取措施改善老年人护理。出于这个原因，第一种方法总是对手头的情况进行基线评估；因此，本研究打算评估年轻一代对老年人权利的认识程度及其对年龄歧视的态度和看法。方法对700名学生进行横断面调查。使用Jamovi 2.3版本分析数据。结果研究结果显示，大学生对老年人权利的认知水平较低（10.5±2.688），但对老年歧视持积极态度（73.64±8.315），持赞成态度（56.31±6.914）。研究发现，老年人权利意识与对年龄歧视的态度（r = -0.178, p=0.01）和对年龄歧视的认知（r = -0.108, p=0.01）呈弱负相关。结论尽管大学生对老年人权利的意识较差，但他们对年龄歧视的态度和认知是积极和赞成的。

“Awareness on rights of older adults, attitudes and perception toward ageism among college students in coastal Karnataka: A cross-sectional study"

Introduction

Ageism is a phenomenon occurring rapidly worldwide and has led stakeholders to consider strategies that can be planned for the welfare of elderly individuals. Policymakers, healthcare sector leaders, and leaders must take rapid steps to improve elderly care because of the predicted increase in the elderly population. For that reason, the first is always the baseline assessment of the scenario at hand; hence, the present study intends to assess the level of awareness among the young generation regarding the rights of the elderly and their attitudes and perceptions towards ageism.

Methods

A cross-sectional study was conducted with 700 students. Jamovi version 2.3 was used to analyse the data.

Results

The study results revealed that college students’ level of awareness of the rights of the elderly was poor (10.5 ± 2.688), yet they had positive attitudes (73.64 ± 8.315) and favourable perceptions (56.31 ± 6.914) toward ageism. The study revealed a weak negative correlation between awareness of the rights of elderly people and attitudes toward ageism (r = -0.178, p=0.01) and perception toward ageism (r = -0.108, p=0.01).

Conclusion

Even though awareness of the rights of the elderly was poor among college students, their attitudes and perceptions towards ageism were positive and favourable.
