L'âgisme interpersonnel survient dans le cadre des relations entre deux personnes ou plus, ce qui peut inclure les relations parents-enfants. Cet âgisme peut se manifester par le fait d'ignorer le point de vue d'une personne lors d'une prise de décision ou par la façon de s'adresser à une personne âgée, par exemple en simplifiant excessivement le langage (emploi d'un langage enfantin).
