Giriş: Genel nüfusta, sağlık hizmeti almak isteyen yaşlıların oranı artmaktadır. Yaşlılara yönelik olumlu ve olumsuz tutumları belirleyen altta yatan faktörlerin anlaşılması, daha iyi bir sağlık hizmeti sunmak için gereklidir.
Yöntem: Çalışmaya 169 hekim katıldı. Katılımcılardan sosyodemografik bilgileri ve geriatrik popülasyona yönelik tutumlarını değerlendirmek için Kaliforniya Üniversitesi Los Angeles Geriatri Tutum (UCLA-GA) ölçeğini içeren çevrimiçi bir anketi cevaplamaları istendi.
Bulgular: İç hastalıkları uzmanı, nörolog ve psikiyatristlerin yaşlılara yönelik tutumları benzerdi. Yaşlılara karşı olumlu tutum, uzmanlık alanı, cinsiyet, yaş, medeni hal, uzmanlık süresi, geriatri eğitimi ve aylık takipli yaşlı hasta sayıları arasındaki ilişki anlamlı değildi. Yaşlı bir akrabaya sahip olmakla olumlu tutum arasındaki ilişki anlamlıydı.
Sonuç: Çalışmamızda, Nörologlar daha çok geriatri eğitim almalarına, daha çok yatarak ve ayakta tedavi gören yaşlı hasta görmesine rağmen geriatri hastalara karşı tutumlarının psikiyatri ve dahiliye uzmanları ile benzer olduğu görüldü. İlaveten yaşlı hastalarda olumlu tutumun 65 yaşından büyük bir akrabası olmasıyla anlamlı derecede ilişkili olduğunu gözlemledik. Eğitim müfredatı, sağlıklı yaşlı insanlara maruz kalmayı artıran, olumlu tutum oranlarını artırabilecek şekilde düzenlenmelidir. Günlük çalışma programları yaşlıları değerlendirmek için uzun bir zamanın gerekliliği göz önünde bulundurularak programlanmalıdır.

Introduction: In the general population, the rate of older people seeking healthcare would increase. Understanding underlying factors that determine positive and negative attitudes towards the elderly is essential to give better healthcare.
Methods: One-hundred and sixty-nine physicians participated in the study. Participants answered an online questionnaire consists of sociodemographic information, and the University of California at the Los Angeles Geriatrics Attitude (UCLA-GA) scale to evaluate the attitudes towards the geriatric population.
Results: The attitude towards the elderly by internist, neurologist, and psychiatrist was comparable. Relationship with positive attitude and specialties, gender, age, marital status, duration of specialty expertise, and having geriatrics education and monthly followed-up elderly patients was not significant. The positive attitude was significantly related to having an elderly relative.
Conclusions: In our study, although neurologists received more geriatric education, and mostly seen inpatient and outpatient patients, their attitudes towards geriatric patients were similar to psychiatry and internal medicine specialists. In addition, we observed that positive attitudes in elderly patients were significantly associated with having a relative over 65 years old. Education curriculum should include programs increasing the exposure to healthy older people may increase positive attitude rates. The organization of working programs should be carried out considering the necessity of a long time to evaluate the elderly.
