The relationship between care recipient and care provider is central to the care recipient's quality of life, yet relatively little is known about psychological factors that impact this relationship. Existing evidence suggests that infrahumanization of patients may reduce stress related to caring for those who are dying. Extending Terror Management Theory and infrahumanization research, the present research examined the effect of mortality salience and aging salience on perceptions of unique humanness attributed to an older adult relative to other nurses. Nursing majors at a university (n = 96) and adults with a background in nursing (n = 95) were asked to write about their own death, someone they know who has experienced decline and challenges during old age, or dental pain (control). They then rated themselves, other nurses, and an older adult on uniquely human traits, uniquely human emotions, and compassion. Regardless of experimental condition, participants attributed the older adult less uniquely human traits and emotions compared to other nurses. Compared to nursing professionals with more experience, nursing students were more likely to rate the older adult as lower in uniquely human traits (intellectual, rational, shallow), whereas they rated other nurses as higher in uniquely human traits. Findings suggest educational efforts aimed at addressing attitudes toward older adults may be beneficial in nursing education.
