“…One must be aware that agism can take many forms (e.g., prejudicial attitudes, discriminatory practices, or institutional policies) and practices, perpetuating stereotypical beliefs (Smith et al, 2016). Therefore, interventions that are aimed at cognitive, behavioral, and emotional components (Ayalon & Tesch-Römer, 2017) are important, and CENVE can be a useful tool to assess the levels of negative stereotypes before and after intervention.…”
