This project will address the social cognitive processes that link communication behaviors and age stereotyping. Prior research by the PI has shown that young, middle-aged, and older adults hold both positive and negative stereotypes of older people. Further that research has established that negative stereotypes, more than positive ones, led to the use of patronizing speech with older targets. Age differences, however, are evident both in the complexity of age stereotype schemas and in the relationship between negative stereotyping and the production of patronizing speech. Older adults hold more complex age stereotype schemas and are less likely to use patronizing talk toward a negatively stereotyped target than are young and middle-aged individuals. The proposed project will add to this body of research by investigating how communication behaviors of older persons (e.g., responses to patronizing talk, self disclosures of health and personal problems, age-telling, verbosity) may contribute to negative stereotyping in the impression formation process. In addition, it will investigate the extent to which impression judgements of older persons and communication to older persons reflect implicit stereotyping. Specific aims of the project are: 1. To determine the communication behaviors of older adults that lead to positive and negative stereotyping; 2. To test the strength of the relationship between implicit age stereotypes, impressions of older communicators, and communications behaviors toward older persons; 3. To examine age differences int he social cognitive processes that link communication behaviors and age stereotyping.

这个项目将解决社会认知过程， 沟通行为和年龄刻板印象。PI的既往研究 已经表明，年轻人，中年人，老年人持有积极的， 和对老年人的负面刻板印象。此外，这项研究还 建立了消极的刻板印象，而不是积极的，导致 对年长的目标使用屈尊俯就的言语。年龄差异， 然而，在年龄刻板印象图式的复杂性中， 以及负面刻板印象和生产之间的关系 傲慢的演讲。老年人持有更复杂的年龄刻板印象 图式和不太可能使用居高临下的谈话对一个消极的 刻板印象对象多为中青年人。的 拟议的项目将通过调查如何增加这一研究机构 老年人的沟通行为（例如，对屈尊俯就的回应 谈话，自我披露健康和个人问题，年龄告诉， 冗长）可能会造成负面的刻板印象， 形成过程此外，它将调查在多大程度上 对老年人的印象和判断以及与老年人的沟通 人反映出内隐的刻板印象。该项目的具体目标是： 1.为了确定老年人的沟通行为， 正面和负面的陈规定型观念; 2.为了检验内隐年龄与 刻板印象、对老年传播者的印象和传播 对老年人的态度; 3.为了检验社会认知过程中的年龄差异， 联系沟通行为和年龄刻板印象。
