| Abstract | Perceived age plays an important role in the context of age identity and social interactions. To examine how accurate individuals are in estimating how old they look and how old others are, younger, middle-aged, and older adults rated photographs of older target persons (for whom we had information about objective and subjective age) in terms of age and other characteristics. Whereas the older targets had quite accurate perceptions of how old they look, the raters' age estimations for those targets were rather inaccurate. Older raters and those with frequent contact with older adults provided the most accurate age estimations. Targets that were rated more favorably with respect to attractiveness or fitness were perceived as younger than those with negative ratings. (Contains 1 table, 2 figures, and 1 note.) (As Provided). |
