Item Open Access Experiences of Aging in Society Project(2024-07) Ober Allen, Julie; Moïse, V.; White, C.J.; Sharma, P.; Kiefer, M.; Sikora, N.; Onishi, S.; Mahato, S.; Cunnyngham, K.; Greenwood, J.C.The Experiences of Aging in Society project is investigating how societal beliefs about aging and older adults may affect health. This report (#2) presents information about findings on racial and ethnic differences in ageism and health in a multi-ethnic sample of over 200 U.S. adults ages 50 and older. We share information about racial/ethnic variations in everyday ageism (both amount and different forms reported), associations between ageism and health (number of chronic conditions, mental health, fight or flight stress responses), positive experiences of aging, and strategies used for coping for ageism.
