Abstract

This article presents two studies dealing with ageism. The objective of the first study was to adapt to French language and validate the Fraboni of Ageism Scale-Revised (FSA-R) which contains 23 items, while the objective of the second study was to test a structural model containing ageism as measured by the FSA-R and the “Big Three”: empathy, social dominance orientation, and dogmatism, controlled for by sex and age. The results of the first study (n = 323) generated a version of the FSA-R comprising 14 items, of which the psychometric properties were very satisfactory. Using structural equation modelling and bootstrap procedure, the results of the second study (n = 284) showed a direct negative and significant effect of empathy on agism. They also showed that this negative effect was mediated by dogmatism and social dominance orientation, which both exerted a positive effect on ageism.

Résumé

Cet article présente deux études portant sur l’âgisme. La première avait pour objectif d’adapter et de valider la Fraboni Scale of Ageism-Revisited (FSA-R) comprenant 23 items, alors que la seconde se proposait de soumettre à l’épreuve des faits un modèle structural mettant en jeu l’âgisme mesuré par la FSA-R et le « Big Three », à savoir l’empathie, l’orientation à la dominance sociale, et le dogmatisme, sous le contrôle du sexe et de l’âge des participants. Les résultats de la première étude (n = 323) ont permis de retenir une version du FSA-R comprenant 14 items, dont les qualités psychométriques se sont révélées très satisfaisantes. Les résultats de la seconde étude (n = 284), en l’occurrence la modélisation structurale et la procédure de rééchantillonnage (Bootstrap Procedure), montrent un effet négatif direct de l’empathie sur l’âgisme. Ils montrent aussi que cet effet négatif est médiatisé par le dogmatisme et l’orientation à la dominance sociale qui exercent, quant à eux, un effet positif sur l’âgisme.
