This article presents the development and validation of the aging stereotypes and exercise scale (ASES), which measures different dimensions of aging stereotypes in the exercise domain. Drawing on past research on older adults' perceived barriers to exercise, these dimensions include stereotypes about positive and negative exercise outcomes for older adults and about older adults' psychological barriers to exercise (i.e., lack of self-efficacy and motivation). Four studies involving 714 participants examined the factorial structure and invariance, temporal stability, and external validity of the scale. The results supported a 3-factor model that was invariant across age. Age differences in stereotype content appeared, with older adults holding more positive stereotypes than younger adults. Also as predicted, the more older adults endorsed negative stereotypes, the lower their physical self- worth, self-rated health, and subjective age. Last, responses to the ASES appeared to be stable over a 6-wk period.
本文介绍了衰老刻板印象与运动量表（ASES）的开发与验证过程，该量表用于测量运动领域中衰老刻板印象的不同维度。基于以往关于老年人运动感知障碍的研究，这些维度包括对老年人运动积极和消极结果的刻板印象，以及对老年人运动心理障碍（即缺乏自我效能感和动机）的刻板印象。四项研究涉及714名参与者，检验了该量表的因子结构与不变性、时间稳定性和外部效度。结果支持了一个在不同年龄群体中具有不变性的三因素模型。刻板印象内容存在年龄差异，老年人比年轻人持有更多积极的刻板印象。同样如预期的那样，老年人对消极刻板印象的认同度越高，其身体自我价值、自评健康状况和主观年龄就越低。最后，在为期6周的时间里，对ASES的反应似乎是稳定的。
