Sponsor: King Saud University

Summary

Brief Summary The goal of this experimental study is to determine the effectiveness of implementing an Arabic education video intervention based on the Positive Education about Aging and Contact Experiences (PEACE) model in reducing ageism and anxiety, promoting positive attitudes, and increasing knowledge toward older adults and assessing the effect over time among physical therapists. The main hypothesis: The investigators hypothesize that an Arabic educational video intervention based on the PEACE model will significantly reduce ageism and anxiety and increase positive attitudes and knowledge about older adults, and the effectiveness will last over time among physical therapists. Participants will: * Complete an initial online survey assessing demographic and professional information, as well as measures of ageism, aging knowledge, anxiety about interactions with older adults, and positive and negative age stereotypes (Time-1). * Watch a 7-minute Arabic video that includes (1) an animated segment addressing ageism and debunking stereotypes and (2) a live-action segment featuring older adults sharing personal stories to promote intergenerational contact (Time-2). * Complete an attention check followed by the same outcome measures as in Time-1. * Complete the same set of outcome measures one week later (Time-3) to assess any changes.
