Abstract
The aging process involves different perceptions. Thus, the study aimed to analyze the vision of young soldiers between 18 and 23 years of age and possible correlation with the existence of prejudices about aging, aging and the elderly. The data showed that the young soldiers live with some elderly person at home (20%), few had gerontological education (46.6%), others are hoping to continue to feel good about myself (a), regardless of age (53.3%). Moreover, the elderly see positive attitudes towards life. But unfortunately, the lack of information can create negative stereotypes about aging that must be overcome by an education for the aging, combining rigid military training, highlighting the positive process that is part of life for all people.
