Ageism manifests in two principal forms: institutional ageism, prevalent within policies and employment practices, and interpersonal ageism, often unrecognized in daily interactions and societal messages.
Many individuals experience self-directed ageism, showing internalized ageist beliefs, such as doubting their capabilities because of their age influenced by societal norms and media views.
A significant majority of older adults reported experiencing discrimination; nearly 80% in the U.S. highlighted ageism as the most pervasive form of discrimination they face.
The normalization of ageist concepts in marketing was evident, with the global anti-aging skincare industry projected to double in size to $141 billion by 2034.
