TL;DR: For instance, this article analyzed responses from 3,323 individuals across 26 nations (mean age = 22.3 years, 31% male) who were asked to rate the five-factor personality traits of typical men or women in three age groups (adolescent, adult, and older adult).

TL;DR: The authors found that adolescents were seen as impulsive, rebellious, undisciplined, preferring excitement and novelty, whereas old people were consistently considered lower on impulsivity, activity, antagonism, and openness.

TL;DR: This article provided arguments for the validity of assessed national mean trait levels as criteria for evaluating stereotype accuracy and reported new data on national character in 26 cultures from descriptions (N = 3323) of the typical male or female adolescent, adult, or old person in each.
