During the COVID-19 pandemic, older adults have been depicted in negative stereotypical ways (e.g., vulnerable, a burden), which may have heightened intergenerational tensions, including conflict regarding relinquishing resources and positions (succession), shared resources (consumption), and distinct groups (identity). The current study assessed attitudes and perceptions of older adults in March/April 2021. Hostile and benevolent ageism predicted greater perceived intergenerational tension (consumption and identity), whereas only hostile ageism predicted more succession tension. Consumption and identity tension as well as hostile ageism predicted fewer intentions to help older adults, whereas benevolent ageism predicted greater behavioral intentions. Implications and future directions are discussed
