ÖZET
 Bu çalışma ile yaşlıya yönelik tutumlar ve bu tutumları etkileyen etmenlerin incelenmesi amaçlandı. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışma 2018 yılında yapıldı. Tanımlayıcı tipte yapılan çalışmanın evrenini, Artvin, Ağrı, Erzincan il merkezinde yaşayan bireyler oluştururken, 1.328 kişinin oluşturduğu örneklemi belirlemede ise olasılıklı örnekleme yöntemlerinden biri olan tabakalı örnekleme yöntemine başvurulmuştur. Araştırma için etik kurul izni ve bilgilendirilmiş onam alınmıştır. Veriler 'kişisel bilgi formu' ve 'Genya Yaşlıya Yönelik Tutum Ölçeği' kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Veriler SPSS 23 ortamında, sayı, ortalama, yüzde, 't-testi', 'varyans analizi', 'Kruskal-Wallis H testi', 'basit doğrusal regresyon analizi' ile çözümlenmiştir. Bulgular: Örneklemin Genya Yaşlıya Yönelik Tutum Ölçeği puan ortalaması 65,4±,399, Cronbach alfa değeri ise ,88 olarak hesaplandı. Kadınların Genya Yaşlıya Yönelik Tutum Ölçeği puan ortalaması 64,3±,486, erkeklerin ise 66,9±,675 olup aradaki fark anlamlıdır. Medeni durumu evli olanların puan ortalaması 69,0±,747 iken, bekâr olanların 64,0±,465 olup, aradaki fark anlamlıdır. Evinde yaşlı birey bulunanların puan ortalaması 64,3±,877, bulunmayanların 65,7±,447 puan olup, aradaki fark anlamlı değildir. Yaşlı bir bireyle yaşamayı isteyenlerin puan ortalaması 63,5±,509, istemeyenlerin ise 67,7±,621 olup, aradaki fark anlamlı bulundu. Daha önce huzurevi ziyareti yapmış olanların puan ortalaması 62,6±,820, yapmamış olanların ise 66,4±,450 olup aradaki fark anlamlıdır. Sonuç: Yaşlıya yönelik tutumların olumlu uçta olduğu, ancak bireylerin yaşı arttıkça yaşlıya yönelik olumsuz tutumlarının arttığı, gelir ve eğitim düzeyi arttıkça ise olumlu tutumların arttığı belirlenmiştir.
