Ageism and confronting ageing: Experiential groupwork to examine attitudes to older age

Abstract

Education and training in welfare services increasingly uses experiential methods to examine attitudes to older age. Four theoretical constructs -absence of experience, a presumed negative future, uneven self-development at work and archetypal images of wise elders are used as a basis for specific groupwork exercises. A critique of Ageism Awareness and implications for training strategies are examined.
