Adults Aged 75+ Happy in Conventional Dwelling or Independent Living Facility but Associated With Thriving and Ageism
This study aimed to compare levels of happiness of older women and men living in conventional dwellings (CD) and independent living facilities (ILF), and examine happiness’ associations with thriving, social participation, community integration and ageism (self-directed and discrimination). A cross-sectional survey was conducted with a random sample of 509 older adults in CD and 470 in ILF in Quebec, Canada. Participants’ mean age was 82.22 ± 5.3…
An Examination of Mentors’ Interpersonal Behaviors and Mentees’ Motivation, Turnover Intentions, Engagement, and Well-Being
Using self-determination theory among a sample of student employees, the present cross-sectional study ( N = 358) examines how mentors’ interpersonal behaviors relate to both motivation at work and motivation for a mentoring relationship and how these two contexts of motivation can differentially relate to mentees’ work outcomes. Results revealed that mentors’ need-supportive interpersonal behaviors were associated with greater autonomous motivat…
Testing the Shielding Effect of Intergenerational Contact against Ageism in the Workplace
Negative outcomes of ageism in the context of the Canadian labor market are well documented. Older workers remain the target of age-based stereotypes and attitudes on the part of employers. This study aims at assessing (1) the extent to which quality and quantity intergroup contacts between younger and older workers as well as knowledge-sharing practices reduce ageist attitudes, in turn (2) how a decrease in ageist attitudes increase the level of…
Covid-19 and the Elderly’s Mental Illness
For almost two years, populations around the globe faced precariousness and uncertainty as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Older adults were highly affected by the virus, and the policies meant to protect them have often resulted in ageist stereotypes and discrimination. For example, the public discourse around older adults had a paternalistic tone framing all older adults as "vulnerable". This study aimed to measure the extent to which percei…
Factors influencing commitment to maintaining long-term exercise in adults over the age of 50
This study explores the experiences of older adults pursuing an exercise routine for at least 10 a decade to gain understanding of factors influencing serious commitment to long-term exercise. In-depth interviews were conducted with 26 participants (5 women and 21 men, aged 50–78 years). Results identified two types of older exercisers: lifelong maintainers and restarters. Lifelong maintainers showed five themes: practice systematically a core sp…

Covid-19 and Quarantine, a Catalyst for Ageism
In February 2021, France had more than 76,000 deaths due to COVID-19 and older adults were heavily affected. Most measures taken to reduce the impact of COVID-19 (quarantine, visit ban in nursing home, etc.) significantly influenced the lives of older adults. Yet they were rarely consulted about their implementation. Exclusion of and discrimination against older adults has been accentuated during the COVID-19 pandemic. While many articles discuss…
The “Vulnerability” Discourse in Times of Covid-19
The Covid-19 pandemic has been particularly difficult for older Canadians who have experienced age discrimination. As the media can provide a powerful channel for conveying stereotypes, the current study aimed to explore how Canadian Francophone older adults and the aging process were depicted by the media during the first wave of the Covid-19 pandemic, and to examine if and how the media discourse contributed to ageist attitudes and behaviors. A…
About me but without me? Older adult's perspectives on interpersonal communication during care transitions from hospital to seniors' residence
Ageism and Covid-19
The goal of this commentary is to highlight the ageism that has emerged during the COVID-19 pandemic. Over 20 international researchers in the field of ageing have contributed to this document. This commentary discusses how older people are misrepresented and undervalued in the current public discourse surrounding the pandemic. It points to issues in documenting the deaths of older adults, the lack of preparation for such a crisis in long-term ca…
Building on Intergenerational Climate to Counter Ageism in the Workplace? A Cross-Organizational Study
The negative outcomes of ageism in the workplace have been well documented. In this study, we turn to potential factors that may counter such outcomes. Relying on the Intergroup Contact Theory (ICT), it is hypothesized that a positive intergenerational workplace climate as well as knowledge sharing and donating practices contribute to lower levels of perceived ageism from the perspective of the older worker. In turn and in continuity with previou…
Understanding Older Canadian Workers’ Perspectives on Aging in the Context of Communication and Knowledge Transfer
Background The Canadian population is aging, as is the Canadian workforce, resulting in an increase in different generations working with one another. The current study aims at understanding, from the older worker’s point of view, generational perceptions in the workplace, and further how such perceptions are linked with communication patterns as well as knowledge transfer. Analysis This study collected 167 responses from a survey of older worker…
The silent impact of ageist communication in long term care facilities
Cultural Perceptions of Aging
L'Âgisme
La population canadienne est vieillissante. Malgré cela, l’âgisme, cette forme de discrimination sur la base de l’âge se manifeste de manière explicite ou insidieuse et est encore trop peu dénoncée. Faut-il chercher les raisons de ce silence dans l’absence d’informations ou plutôt l’insuffisance de connaissances sur le vieillissement et les aînés ? Ce livre approfondit la réflexion sur l’âgisme et ouvre des pistes de solution. On y présente les m…
Communication as Precursor and Consequence of Subjective Social Capital in Older People
L'invisible qui blesse
This study investigates, among companies covered by the Canada Employment Equity Act, the hidden side of numerical progress of visible minorities achieved through the implementation of employment equity plans. More specifically, the purpose of this study is to determine whether companies with the best perfor mance in terms of the act have recognized the potential for conflict associated with the integration of visible minorities through employmen…
