AI Article Synopsis

  • The Fraboni scale of ageism (FSA) assesses age-related prejudices against the elderly, and this study evaluates its effectiveness among healthcare workers.
  • The research involved 814 healthcare professionals from a university and state hospital, using descriptive and relationship-seeking methods.
  • Findings revealed the FSA includes 29 items across three factors, accounting for about 30.23% of variance, with a cut-off score established at 78, confirming its suitability for measuring ageism in this context.

Article Abstract

Purpose: The Fraboni scale of ageism (FSA) is one of the scales used to determine ageism, which is the expression of prejudice toward the elderly because of their age through attitudes and behaviors. The purpose of this study is to determine the psychometric properties, factor analysis, and cut-off value for the FSA in a sampling of healthcare workers.

Design And Methods: The sampling of this study was conducted methodologically in a descriptive and relationship-seeking type of research and comprised 814 healthcare workers employed at a university and state hospital.

Findings: As a result of the exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses, it was found that the FSA comprised 29 items and three subdimensions, that these three factors explain approximately 30.23% of the total variance, and that the cut-off value is 78.

Practice Implications: This study determined that the Turkish adaptation of the FSA is a suitable tool to measure the ageism of healthcare workers.
