Abstract

"Joy Beyond Youth: An Examination of Aging Stereotypes within Media" by Tieranni Parquet and Julie Watson explores how media representations of older adults can perpetuate ageist stereotypes, leading to negative perceptions of aging in both younger and older viewers. The article highlights the underrepresentation and misrepresentation of older adults in media, emphasizing the need for more authentic and diverse portrayals of aging. It also discusses the impact of ageism in the workplace and the potential benefits of positive media representations of aging on individuals' self-perceptions and well-being.
