  • Absenteeism Among Healthcare Workers

    Open AccessCarine J Sakr, Lina Fakih et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2025

    Demographic, work-related, and health-related predictors are associated with the number of sick leave episodes. To address the health inequity, additional research should evaluate how some socio-economic factors determine poorer health outcomes and should guide approaches to address this crucial issue to protect the health and well-being of this key workforce

  • Societal impact on older persons' chronic pain

  • Impact of Media-Based Negative and Positive Age Stereotypes on Older Individuals’ Mental Health

    Open AccessBenjamin R Levy, E-Shien Chang et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…2021Citada por: 4Referências: 11

    Objectives During the COVID-19 pandemic, stigmatization of older persons increased in traditional and social media. It was unknown whether this negative messaging could be detrimental to the mental health of older individuals, and whether the relatively uncommon positive messaging about older individuals could benefit their mental health. Method To address these gaps, we designed age-stereotype interventions based on actual news stories that appe…

  • Ageism Amplifies Cost and Prevalence of Health Conditions

    Open AccessBenjamin R Levy, Becca R Levy et al.ARTICLEThe Gerontologist2020

    BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The persistent status of ageism as one of the least acknowledged forms of prejudice may be due in part to an absence of quantifying its costs in economic terms. In this study, we calculated the costs of ageism on health conditions for all persons aged 60 years or older in the United States during 1 year. RESEARCH DESIGN AND MATERIALS: The ageism predictors were discrimination aimed at older persons, negative age stereot…

  • When Culture Influences Genes

    Open AccessBenjamin R Levy, Martin D Slade et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…2020Citada por: 1Referências: 4

    This study provides the first known evidence that self-perceptions can influence the impact of a gene on cognition. The results underscore the importance of combined psychosocial and biological approaches to understanding cognitive function in older adults

  • Active coping shields against negative aging self-stereotypes contributing to psychiatric conditions

  • Positive Aging Views in the General Population Predict Better Long-Term Cognition for Elders in Eight Countries

    Open AccessEmma B Smith, Mahesh M Desai et al.ARTICLEJournal of Aging and Health2018Citada por: 1Referências: 3

    Objective: Much of the literature on aging cognitive health has focused on individual determinants, rather than societal ones; in contrast, this study examined whether country-level age status predicts cognitive performance of older individuals over time. Method: Eight countries were examined using a novel combination of country-level age status data from the European Social Survey and individual-level data from the Survey on Health, Ageing, and …

  • Early-Life State-of-Residence Characteristics and Later Life Hypertension, Diabetes, and Ischemic Heart Disease

    D H Rehkopf, Ellen A Eisen et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health2015Referências: 36

    Objectives. We examined how state characteristics in early life are associated with individual chronic disease later in life. Methods. We assessed early-life state of residence using the first 3 digits of social security numbers from blue- and white-collar workers from a US manufacturing company. Longitudinal data were available from 1997 to 2012, with 305 936 person-years of observation. Disease was assessed using medical claims. We modeled asso…

  • Resiliency Over Time of Elders’ Age Stereotypes After Encountering Stressful Events

    Benjamin R Levy, Martin D Slade et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…2014Citada por: 7Referências: 8

    The robustness of negative age stereotypes was expressed in their capacity to resist change as well as generate it

  • Further validation that claims data are a useful tool for epidemiologic research on hypertension

    Open AccessBaylah Tessier‐Sherman, Baylah Tessier-Sherman et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2013

    The medical service claims data were found to be highly specific, while sensitivity values varied by claims algorithm suggesting the possibility of under-ascertainment. Our analysis further demonstrates that such under-ascertainment is strongly skewed toward those cases that would be considered clinically borderline or mild

  • Memory Shaped by Age Stereotypes over Time

    Becca Levy, B R Levy et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…2011Citada por: 20Referências: 4

    This study shows that the adverse influence of negative self-stereotypes on cognitive performance is not limited to a short-term laboratory effect. Rather, the findings demonstrate, for the first time, that stereotypes also predict memory performance over an extended period in the community

  • Age Stereotypes Held Earlier in Life Predict Cardiovascular Events in Later Life

    Open AccessBenjamin R Levy, Becca R Levy et al.ARTICLEPsychological Science2009

    When older individuals apply negative age stereotypes to themselves, they can adversely influence a wide range of outcomes (Levy, Slade, Kunkel, & Kasl, 2002). These outcomes include a greater cardiovascular response to stress and worse health behaviors, such as higher tobacco use (Levy, Hausdorff, Hencke, & Wei, 2000; Levy & Myers, 2004), both of which have been linked to the risk of cardiovascular events (Jiang et al., 1996).

  • Age Attributions and Aging Health

    Benjamin R Levy, Ori Ashman et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…2009Citada por: 4Referências: 4

    Older Americans often attribute health problems to old age, rather than to extenuating circumstances. Previous studies of Americans found that age attributions predict adverse health outcomes. We examined whether culture influences both the tendency to make age attributions and their effect on aging health. We found that (a) Japanese were significantly more likely to make age attributions than Americans; (b) age attributions were significantly as…

  • Hearing Decline Predicted by Elders' Stereotypes

    Benjamin R Levy, Martin D Slade et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…2006Citada por: 10Referências: 2

    Although age-related hearing loss is one of the most prevalent conditions affecting older individuals, little research has been conducted on the social-psychological factors that might contribute to it. The present study examines whether older individuals' age stereotypes predict screened hearing over time. The sample consisted of 546 community-dwelling persons, aged 70 to 96 years old. Participants with more negative and more external (i.e., rel…

  • Longitudinal Benefit of Positive Self-Perceptions of Aging on Functional Health

    Benjamin R Levy, Martin D Slade et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…2002Citada por: 58Referências: 10

    We examined whether those with more positive self-perceptions of aging (older individuals' beliefs about their own aging) report better functional health over an 18-year period than do those with more negative self-perceptions of aging. We found that those with more positive self-perceptions of aging in 1975 reported better functional health from 1977 to 1995, when we controlled for baseline measures of functional health, self-rated health, age, …
