Attitudes of Australian Therapists toward Older Clients: Educational and Training Imperatives.
Helmes, Edward; Gee, Susan
Educational Gerontology, v29 n8 p657-70 Sep 2003
Vignettes of depressed females aged 42 or 72 were reviewed by 414 psychologists and 293 counselors (38% response). Most correctly identified depression regardless of client age. The elder client was considered to be less able to develop a therapeutic relationship, to have a poor prognosis, and to be less acceptable as a client. (Contains 54 references.) (SK)
