“…The study findings suggested that the students had a positive attitude towards ageism. Likewise, similar studies conducted in the case of Turkey showed concurrence with our finding (Çınar, Karadakovan, Sivrikaya, 2018;Forlenza et al 2019;Koç et al, 2020;Özdemir, & Bilgili, 2016). This may be explained by autonomous and invariable expectations of actions impregnated to Turkish Culture such as showing respect for the elderly, seeking advice and opinion of the elderly, and feeling responsible to look after the elderly.…”

“…Though, it is important to note that our participants admitted relatively high levels of ageism as their overall AAS mean score exceeded the midpoint of 3.5 (M = 4.15, SD = 1.21). A previous study conducted by Forlenza et al (2019) who used AAS produced similar results indicating their American exercise science undergraduate students have higher levels of benevolent ageist attitudes toward older adults. However, the mean score of their overall AAS was far below the midpoint of 3.5 to 2.89.…”

“…Cary et al (2017) developed the AAS and produced overall Cronbach's alpha values of .91. Forlenza et al (2019) mentioned that their study with participants of exercise science students produced a high internal reliability value of .85 for the entire AAS. Zhang (2020) conducted a study to validate the Chinese version of the AAS in China with participants age 18 to 58, where the influence of Confucian filial traditions are prevailed.…”

“… 18 , 23 , 24 In comparison, there have been few studies on ageism among students in other healthcare professions, such as health rehabilitation science. 25 , 26 Rehabilitation is essential to reduce the impact of physical aging, enhance mobility and improve the quality of life among older adults. 27 Geriatric rehabilitation is defined as “evaluative, diagnostic and therapeutic interventions whose purpose is to restore functional ability or enhance residual functional capability in older people with disabling impairments.…”
