Abstract
The Geriatric Attitude Scale is a tool used to measure attitudes toward aging and older adults, often focusing on how health professionals, caregivers, or the general public perceive geriatric care and the elderly. Understanding these attitudes is essential, as they can influence the quality of care provided to older adults and the interactions between healthcare providers and patients.
