Media representations of ageing play a role in stereotype formation
and even reinforce them. Encountering these stereotypes can
negatively impact the self-esteem, health status, physical
wellbeing and cognitive performance of older people. This
international collection examines different dimensions of ageing
and ageism in a range of media. Chapters include explorations of
the UK media during the COVID-19 pandemic; age, gender and mental
health in Ghana; advertising in Brazil; magazines in Canada;
Taiwanese newspapers; comics, graphic novels and more. Bringing
together leading scholars, this book critically considers
differences in media portrayals and how older adults use and
interact with the media.
