dc.description.abstract | Aim This study will be important in terms of determining whether or not there is ageism in terms of healthcare professionals in Turkey and being a reference for the future studies. Methods This study was conducted to examine the attitudes of the healthcare professionals on ageism. The population of this descriptive study consisted of 242 healthcare professionals in Bingol State Hospital. The data were collected by the researchers between January 2012 and February 2012. The information form including the descriptive characteristics of the healthcare professionals and the Ageism Attitude Scale (AAS) were used to collect the data. Percentage, mean, t test, and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) were used to assess the data. Results In the study, the average age of the healthcare professionals was 29.75 +/- 6.3, 79.3% were female, 59.9% were married, 53.3% had children, and 24.8% of those with children had only one child. Sixty-four percent of the healthcare professionals were nurses, 43.0% had an associate degree, and 82.2% had nuclear families, and 87.6% had no elderly family members living with them. The AAS mean score of the healthcare professionals was 68.58 +/- 5.6. Conclusions When the titles and education of healthcare professionals were compared with the scale scores, the difference between them was not found to be statistically significant (p = 0.15, p = 0.859). | en_US |
