Ageism, and negative stereotypes of the elderley - need to know relevant theories & research?

Question

I'm doing my A level coursework on how students age 16-18 perceive the elderley (negativity/stereotyping).

For part of my coursework I need to describe relevant theories & research.

Can you please give me examples of studies and theories I could look into, or any websites that might help? Anything to do with ageism or stereotyping, or the way teenagers perceive others... Thanks!
