Previous research has failed to utilize doctoral clinical psychology graduate students' when examining factors that potentially mediate against age-related bias. Death and aging anxiety are both intrinsically linked to thoughts or feelings when working with older adults. Studies have shown varying results in relation to whether education and clinical experience play a role in decreasing aging and death anxiety. This proposed study hopes to aid to the growing field of professional bias by assessing attitudes toward older adults held by clinical psychology graduate students who will one day become clinical psychologists.
