Abstract
Palmore's Facts on Aging Quizzes I and II and Facts on Aging Mental Health Quiz were administered as a single test to third-year medical students before and after their 6-week Community Health and Family Medicine clerkship. The clerkship experience contributed to a small improvement in students′ knowledge about the aged, net bias scores decreased from pre- to posttest, and scores on FAQI were significantly higher than scores on FAQ 11 both pre- and posttest.Keywords
