Abstract

Little is known about generational differences and similarities in beliefs about addiction. Science Gallery Atlanta (SGA) integrates science and art to approach challenging topics, like addiction, with empathy. Intergenerational communication about addiction could positively impact older and younger adults. This study investigated perceptions of addiction among older (60+ years) and younger (18–26 years) adults through intergenerational dialogue on addiction-focused art, offered through SGA’s HOOKED exhibition. This exploratory pilot study recruited ten randomized older-younger dyads who received a mediated tour of HOOKED. Addiction attitudes were assessed pre- and post-tour with the Belief in a Just World and Addiction Belief Scale questionnaires, concurrent interviews, and focus groups. Qualitative data were recorded, transcribed and analyzed thematically. Thematic analysis revealed younger and older adults were equally concerned with addiction-produced waste and technology addiction. Generational differences emerged regarding social media and drug-induced euphoria. Across age groups, participants scored similarly in their beliefs about justice for others and self. Post-tour, young adults were more likely to view addiction as a disease rather than a choice (p = 0.05). Art-based intergenerational communication may increase empathy. Intergenerational bridging may help young adults see addiction as a disease and older adults understand behavioral addictions. Emergent themes illuminate generational differences and similarities in addiction beliefs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
