Description
Nancy Morrow-Howell and co-authors asked older adults about age bias in a 2026 study. They ran nine group talks with 58 people aged 60 and up. Most were women, and the most common age band was 75 to 79.
Some had not heard the term for age bias, and some said they had not felt it. Once the idea was clear, most named slights at work, in clinics, in shops, and in the home. Bias turned inward was less known but came up in talk. The team says anti-bias work should speak to older adults first, not just to the young or to staff.
