“…In this sense, the results of our research indicated that the older population has more knowledge about sexuality in old age than the younger population. This may be due to one's personal and close experiences with the elderly (García-Villanueva et al, 2020;Morell-Mengual, 2018).…”

“…The majority of works reviewed on this subject are focused on sexual health, both physical and mental (Iacub et al, 2020;OMS, 2016) and on the attitudes of certain groups towards sexuality in old age (Hernández-Hernández et al, 2021;Medina et al, 2019). In this sense, the thoughts and/or beliefs that a person has can give rise to prejudices, causing rejection towards the sexuality of older people (García-Villanueva, 2020). In the research by García-Villanueva et al (2020), it was found that sexuality in old age is still a taboo subject, without much presence, and when it is present, it seems to be perceived as something indecent and in bad taste.…”

“…In other words, beliefs or ideas appear steeped in the conceptions held about something. These conceptions may be the result of personal or close experiences, the context, the culture, the time, the representations held about old age and how old men and women are expected to be (García-Villanueva et al, 2020;Morell-Mengual, 2018).…”

False beliefs and negative myths about sexuality in old age lead to stereotypes and prejudices towards this group. These negative opinions germinate from a lack of knowledge about a subject. In an ageing society, education plays an important role, attending to the needs of these people throughout their lives and offering information that encourages optimistic attitudes towards this group and about a subject that seems to be frowned upon or forbidden in old age.To this end, this research aims to analyse the knowledge and attitudes that young people studying for the degree in Social Education and older people attending the training course of the experience classroom at the University of Huelva have towards sexuality in old age. The method used is descriptive-correlational and comparative-causal. A questionnaire was administered to a sample of 304 subjects between 18 and 78 years of age. For data analysis, descriptive statistics, group comparisons and multiple linear regression model were used to identify factors that condition sexuality in old age. The results showed that the older population has more knowledge and a more conservative attitude towards sexuality in old age than the younger participants. Age, knowledge and educational qualifications are noted as conditioning factors of sexuality in old age. The research provides elements to be considered when drawing up educational-sexual initiatives to help improve certain attitudes and contribute to a more positive conception regarding the elderly.
