AnnotationData on ageism is presented from two sources. Firstly, a module of questions on this theme was included in the 2003 Northern Ireland Life and Times Survey. Secondly, a stand-alone survey was conducted in the Republic of Ireland at the same time as the Northern Ireland survey. Respondents ranged in age from 18-24 to age 75+, and their views on the questions asked are reflected accordingly. Topics covered included: how older people are treated, adequacy of provision, views on pensions, the main problems facing older people and attitudes toward older people, also ageism and healthcare, employment, and financial services. ARK, Northern Ireland Social and Political Archive is run in collaboration with Queen's University, Belfast and University of Ulster. (RH).
