Resumo(s)
Age bias research emphasizes systematic cognitive processes which influence the perception
towards others automatically. An online survey among 195 U.S.-American employees was
conducted to determine whether there is a difference in employee perceptions towards young
and old managers. The collected data shows (a) differences in the perception of young
compared to old managers. In addition the study examines if (b) the perception of employees
from different generations towards their out or in-groups is heterogeneous. The measures
included perceptions of employees regarding the employees’ connectedness to an old or
young manager. Furthermore the extent of employees age stereotyping (competence/warmth)
towards managers was measured. Data was analysed with a GLM test to investigate the
differences of the employees’ perceptions Data supported both hypotheses (a) and (b).
