In our sample, age emerged as a marginally statistically significant predictor ( p = 0.046), with each additional year associated with a 0.07-point decrease in personhood beliefs.
In our sample, age emerged as a marginally statistically significant predictor ( p = 0.046), with each additional year associated with a 0.07-point decrease in personhood beliefs.
A clear trend was observed based on the age of participants: mean personhood scores were relatively stable across the 18–34, 35–44, and 45–54 age groups (all around 87), increased slightly in the 55–64 group (mean = 89), but declined in the 65+ group (mean = 83).
Race, age (borderline significance) professional discipline, and prior training as a care partner were significant predictors of personhood beliefs.
