Age-Related Microaggressions: Their Frequency, Emotional Impact, and Relationship to Negative Affect.

Age-related microaggressions are forms of ageist discrimination that occur in day-to-day interactions. This study aimed to validate the findings of a previous study, to identify common age-related microaggressions, and determine how affect influences emotional reactions to microaggressions. Using an online survey, participants ( = 200) were asked about their experience with age-related microaggressions, their affect, and their physical health.
