摘要

2019冠状病毒病大流行加剧了美国对老年人的年龄歧视(陈规定型观念、偏见和歧视),凸显了老年人是负担的观念。在大流行之前,越来越多的研究机构试图利用PEACE(关于老龄化和接触经验的积极教育)模式减少年龄歧视。在这项研究的扩展中,参与者被随机分配观看三段视频(总共不到10分钟),这些视频挑战了对老龄化和老年人的刻板印象,描绘了积极的代际接触,并强调老年人是社会的贡献者(实验条件)或三段墙纸视频(控制条件)。实验参与者(研究1中的本科生和研究2中的全国社区年轻人样本)报告说,老年人作为社会贡献者的认可增加了,老年人的积极刻板印象也增加了。此外,在研究2中,实验参与者(与对照组相比)对老年人的负面刻板印象和代际冲突的看法也有所减少。这些令人鼓舞的发现表明,在大流行期间,相对短暂的减少年龄歧视干预措施是有效的,这是第一次,老年人作为社会贡献者的观念可以得到加强。讨论了未来社会政策的发展方向和影响。

Reducing ageism toward older adults and highlighting older adults as contributors during the COVID-19 pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated ageism (stereotyping, prejudice, and discrimination) toward older adults in the United States, highlighting the belief that older adults are a burden. Prior to the pandemic, a growing body of research sought to reduce ageism using the PEACE (Positive Education about Aging and Contact Experiences) model. Extending that research, participants were randomly assigned to watch three videos (less than 10 min total) that challenged stereotypes about aging and older adults, depicted positive intergenerational contact, and highlighted older adults as contributors to society (experimental condition) or three videos on wallpaper (control condition). Experimental participants (undergraduate students in Study 1 and a national community sample of young adults in Study 2) reported increased endorsement of older adults as contributors to society and positive stereotypes of older adults. In addition, in Study 2, negative stereotypes of older adults and views of intergenerational conflict were also reduced among experimental (vs. control) participants. These promising findings show that relatively brief ageism reduction interventions are effective during the pandemic and for the first time, that the perception of older adults as contributors to society can be increased. Future directions and implications for social policies are discussed.
