Tétel Szabadon hozzáférhető Active Ageing Good Practices Promoting Intergenerational Communication and Understanding(2023-12-01) Maria Aurora, Fenech; Edel Borg, MizziPersistent negative stereotypes on the aging process and the older person are noticeable within the current youth-orientated culture. Older persons may also hold negative stereotypes about the younger generation. These undesirable typecasts co-exist because younger and older persons often have limited contact with each other. Indeed, the younger generation, only gets to engage in communication with the older person within the family unit, rarely outside their own familial structures. Similarly, older persons, residents of long-term care have limited opportunities of interacting with the younger generation.Tétel Szabadon hozzáférhető Ageism as social pathology in geriatric medicine(2023-12-01) Andrei, Ilnitski; Kiryl, PrashchayeuThe main trend of modern geriatrics is to maintain a high functional ability, which consists of intrinsic capacity and environment. It is important to attach importance to the impact of the environment, including of its social component, when can promote the development of social pathology, for example loneliness or the consequences of ageism which can significantly reduce the quality of life.Tétel Szabadon hozzáférhető Demokratikus értékek – Diszkriminatív gyakorlatok, tekintettel az időskorúak státusára(2020-11-26) Hell, JuditThe scientific study of gerontology in Hungary has a short history. Perhaps that is why the meaning of gerontology is erroneously restricted to the type belonging to biology and medical sciences by many. The present study argues that human and social science gerontology does have reasons for its existence. We outline the specific areas of research done by philosophy and ethics in connection with the situation of the existence of people, especially that of the elderly and describe what their mission consists of. We analyse the history of Western philosophical thinking and the moral ideas and values formed by this thinking in thousands of years. The basic principles of modern democratic societies are constituted by these ideas: liberty, equality, justice, brotherhood, human dignity and human rights. In practice these rights are often violated, for example the elderly people are discriminated against their age, which violates their equality and justice as well as human dignity. Their disadvantageous situation is obvious in the economy, politics, culture, education and relations between generations. The task of ethics is the principle criticism of these practices along the Western values thus contribution to the formation of human conditions. The demographic crisis of the continent is viewed by the EU as based on modern age policy, aids, projects and classical Western values.Tétel Szabadon hozzáférhető Generációk közötti feszültségek okai, csökkentésének lehetőségei(2017-06-01) Bekéné Zelencz, KatalinThe author is trying to discover the causes of tensions between the young and the old. She highlights the fields of cogitation and personal development, the differences and similarities between the two generations, furthermore, she offers alternative solutions to reduce the tensions. She explores the difficulties of the conditions of the young and the elderly. The author would like to achieve that different age groups would get to know each other’s problems, and functions of life stages. By revealing this she hopes to decrease the generation gap. Further aim is to promote the prevention of ageism and the approach of generations.Tétel Szabadon hozzáférhető „Olyan fiatalnak szeretnék kinézni, mint amilyennek érzem magam” A szépészeti beavatkozásokok alkalmazása iránti hajlandóságot befolyásoló pszichológiai tényezők az idősödés kontextusában(2023-12-29) Kegyes, LillaIn 2020, a total of 15.6 million cosmetic procedures were performed in the United States alone - a 43% increase from 6.7 million in 2000. This upward trend is likely to continue for decades to come. In 2020, the largest consumer group was women aged 40-55, accounting for 45% of all cosmetic procedures and they primarily chose procedures to remove visible signs of aging. This study aims to summarize the factors that generally influence the development of positive attitudes toward procedures. Additionally, the study explores the relationship between ageing and interest in cosmetic procedures. The underlying factors are explored both at the individual level, such as ageing anxiety, and at the societal level, such as age stereotypes and ageism. Finally, the article also discusses the perception of individuals who undergo these procedures and the factors that may help older individuals to have a positive attitude towards ageing.Tétel Szabadon hozzáférhető A Review of the AGE Barometer 2023: EU Good Practices and Barriers in the Empowerment of Elderly in the Labour Market - The Case of Hungary(2023-12-29) Balangue, Climson L.; Bene, ÁgnesThe 2023 edition of the AGE Barometer was released by the Age Platform Europe, aimed at consolidating data from European statistics and national-level sources and enriched by feedback from 19 European countries, including Hungary. The publication aimed at empowering older people in the labour market and promoting sustainable and high-quality working lives for them. The Barometer revealed that the European Union (EU) is far from reaching its 78% employment target for adults aged 20 to 64 with its current state of just 62.3%. This could be due to various barriers to the integration of older people in the labour market, which include inadequate supportive policies, ageism, and unfavourable workplace conditions. Conversely, these are broadly stated in the context of the EU; hence, a deeper analysis of these results, with a special focus on the case of a single country, such as Hungary, is relevant to establish a clearer understanding of the national and local framework of these findings and in determining facilitating policies and programmes as well as gaps in promoting elderly inclusion in the labour sector. Using various methods such as critical analysis, desk and literature review, and thematic analysis, this article examined the Barometer report and other relevant publications. The Barometer 2023 effectively provided general issues and actionable areas in supporting older people in the labour market, combating ageism, and ensuring an age-friendly work environment in the EU landscape. Moreover, it revealed that Hungary performed better in employing older persons compared to the EU average, likely associated with a favourable environment for older workers through its legal protection systems, financial incentives, equal treatment policy, and initiatives such as pensioner cooperatives and information technology education. However, this still falls below the target, and based on the analysis and review of existing relevant publications, this could be associated with some unfavourable policies, gender disparities, a continuous rise in the ageing population, an increased number of migrant workers, technology challenges, ageism, political mayhems, cultural and traditional constraints, and other challenges that continue to threaten the marketability of older people, thereby resulting in consequences for their financial, physical, social, psychological, and environmental wellbeing. Moreover, the report also stated few good practices in promoting elderly employment in the county, contrary to numerous efforts implemented by both the Hungarian government, non-government organisations, and other institutions, which remained unrecognised, perhaps due to limited data availability and gaps in the reporting schemes. Finally, the Barometer 2023 report was realized to be included and used as a part of the technical working papers of the European Economic and Social Committee, being the EU advisory body that deals on the issues and opinions regarding this matter. The latest edition of the Barometer has the potential to spark positive changes among policymakers and decision-makers in acknowledging the economic potential of the elderly and in eliminating barriers that hinder elderly integration in the labour market. In the case of Hungary, substantial policies, programmes, and welfare services exist that facilitate elderly employment; however, challenges were also identified, hence the precise recommendations provided in the Barometer report must transform into reality, taking into consideration the unique national, local, and cultural peculiarities of Hungary and its local communities. It is also suggested that systematic data collection and good practice documentation must be facilitated in Hungary, and feedback from the other 18 countries in the Barometer report must be thoroughly reviewed or benchmarked for possible inspiration and replication. Lastly, the potentials of the Barometer 2023 to be used at all levels of decision-making must be maximized.Tétel Szabadon hozzáférhető Smart against ageism: an overview of age discrimination in Portugal(2022-12-01) Dantas, Carina; Louceiro, Juliana; Machado, NatáliaNegative stereotypes, prejudices and discrimination on the ground of age, known as “ageism” have been shown to cause cardiovascular stress, lowered levels of self-efficacy and decreased productivity [1] . Across the EU, policies and practices still reflect ageist prejudices and deprioritise, disregard, or even exclude older adults in different ways.
