在这项研究中,125名成年人在三个年龄组(青年,中年和老年人)的典型性和近似年龄的个人代表11个刻板印象的老年人。参与者表明他们对个人的一套双极形容词量表的态度。态度的结果符合预测的模式。对个别刻板印象的态度不同,根据每个刻板印象的效价,而不是参与者的年龄。同样,年龄判断也随着刻板印象的程度而变化。所有年龄段的参与者都选择了年龄较大的年龄范围来表示更消极的陈规定型观念,而年龄较小的年龄范围则表示积极的陈规定型观念。最后,老年人的参与者给予较低的典型性评级的刻板印象比其他两个年龄组,虽然那些在所有年龄组的刻板印象排序相似,在他们的典型性。结果进行了讨论,在他们的关系的认知表征的老龄化举行的三个年龄组。
In this study, 125 adults in three age groups (young, middle-aged, and elderly) rated the typicality and approximate age of individuals representing 11 stereotypes of the elderly. Participants indicated their attitudes toward the individuals on a set of bipolar adjective scales. Attitude results conformed to the pattern predicted. Attitudes toward individual stereotypes varied according to the valence of each stereotype rather than participant age. Likewise, age judgments varied with the valence of the stereotype. Participants of all ages chose the older age ranges for the more negative stereotypes and younger age ranges for the positive stereotypes. Finally, elderly participants gave lower typicality ratings to the stereotypes than those in the other two age groups, although those in all age groups ordered the stereotypes similarly in terms of their typicality. Results are discussed in terms of their relationship to the cognitive representations of aging held by those in the three age groups.
