Abstract:

Purpose This study aims to examine how the perceived importance of work values differs among the three generations (Cultural Revolution, Social Reform and Millennial) in the Chinese workforce. Design/methodology/approach Grounded in work values and generation theories, hypotheses were tested by empirical data collected from 464 Chinese employees from companies located in the Yangtze River Delta of China. A one-way multivariate analysis of covariance and a series of one-way analysis of covariance and t-tests were conducted to compare the three generations with respect to work values. Findings The results revealed significant generational differences existing in China with respect to extrinsic–intrinsic work values measured by the work-need typology (Huseman and Hatfield, 1990). After controlling for demographic variables, Millennial employees were found to show the highest preference for both extrinsic and intrinsic work values, followed by the Social Reform generation, whereas the Cultural Revolution generation scored lowest. Additionally, important similarities across the three generations were also found. Research limitations/implications These findings highlight the complex nature of generational phenomena and suggest the need to further develop a deep appreciation and understanding of the underlying reasons for those generational differences and similarities. Originality/value Drawing from generation and work values theory, the authors developed a theoretical framework that allows us to directly compare the three generations in the Chinese workforce with respect to the magnitude of importance each generation attaches to various work priorities. The present study represents an important initial step in throwing more light on the mechanisms underlying the observed generational differences and similarities in work values.

Abstract:

Based on the European framework (DigComp), a self-assessment tool digital competency wheel is used for this quantitative study to measure the individuals' perceptions toward digital competence. With a sample of 197 individuals from different generations in Finland, this study aims to provide empirical evidence that generational technological abilities are diverse. The data in this study show that “Net Generation,” also coined as “digital natives,” has obtained the highest level of digital competence. Nevertheless, when looking at the performance of all the investigated groups, the slight inter-generational difference was found in the case of problem-solving, whereas programming was found as the least developed competency among these groups. Based on the results, the study concludes that digital competence is very much distributed across generations. This also contributes to intergenerational learning that may enhance technological skills across generations.

Abstract:

The American church, much like the surrounding society, has become more age segregated with age-specific ministry defining the landscape of the church. However, Scripture indicates that generational discipleship, the passing of faith from one generation to another, is the normative practice of a community of faith, which requires the interaction and engagement of multiple generations. Intercessory prayer has been shown to have positive effects on a variety of social relationships and is a spiritual discipline available to all, regardless of age or spiritual maturity. This article explores the possibility of intercessory prayer being used as a vehicle to connect generations and create space for increased generational interactions within a local church context.

Abstract:

A neglected aspect of social justice is fairness between successive generations. This article argues that the large generation born immediately after World War Two (the ‘baby boomers’) have benefited from a favourable macro-economic environment throughout their lives, while the relatively small generation following them will bear the brunt of paying for the pensions and healthcare of their predecessors. Such extreme differences in the benefits and burdens of different generations over their life cycles may need to be ameliorated in order to avoid a breakdown in the informal intergenerational social contract, which has sustained support for the welfare state over several decades.

Abstract:

Abstract Informal caregivers are a critical component of support for the rapidly aging population. Previous studies have addressed the effects of caregiving on mental health. However, they have not focused on differences among generational cohorts of caregivers of older adults, i.e., Millennial (born 1981-1996), Generation X (born 1965-1980), Baby Boomer (born 1946-1964), and Silent Generation (born 1928-1945). As the Millennial caregiver population grows in parallel with older adults and their increased needs, we must better understand Millennial responses to caregiving. Millennial caregivers provide a similar intensity of care as Baby Boomers in terms of hours per week but are more likely to be fully employed (40+ hours per week or more). We used caregiver data from the nationally representative Centers for Disease Control’s Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) survey from 2015-2017 to conduct negative binomial regression (n=50,745). Data analysis indicates that Millennial caregivers have an incidence rate ratio of 1.22 times more self-reported days of “stress, depression, and/or problems with emotions” compared to Generation X caregivers (p<0.01); 1.64 times compared to Baby Boomers (p<0.001); and 2.38 times compared to Silent Generation caregivers (p<0.001). Generational differences show that Millennial caregivers may have different needs than older generations of caregivers. Rather than assuming that the policies and interventions designed for older generations of caregivers will fit younger generations, implications of this work can help inform: 1) the design of programs to support caregivers’ mental health, and 2) policy considerations that address the unique needs of a younger caregiver population.

Abstract:

AbstractThis paper tests whether in a PAYG system there is an inter-generational balance between the contributions made during the working-career and the pension benefit received in retirement; covering different cohorts. The analysis takes Malta as a case study. Though the dependency ratio is comparatively low, the population is rapidly ageing. The results show that there is a generational imbalance with the young cohort unlikely to be any better off than those who have already retired. This however is sensitive to the assumed discount rate and the ‘no policy’ change scenario. The results also show that future generations may be net-gainers assuming a sustained level of wage growth. If, on the other hand, wage growth slows, the younger generation may become increasingly reliant on the bequests of older generations. This would explain why pressure has increased to regularly adjust the existing PAYG system as well to introduce other forms of pension schemes.

Abstract:

Das Aufwachsen in einer von Armut betroffenen Familie erhöht das Risiko der Kindergeneration, später selbst arm zu sein. Wir stellen die Frage, wie familiale Lebenslagen und Beziehungen sowie an sie gekoppelte Orientierungsmuster eine intergenerationale Weitergabe von Armut befördern oder helfen, diese zu durchbrechen. Dabei wollen wir zum Forschungsstand in zweierlei Weise beitragen: Zum einen reagieren wir auf die mit dem Untersuchungsgegenstand verbundenen spezifischen methodischen Anforderungen und formulieren unser konkretes Vorgehen beim ‚Inbezugsetzen‘ von Interviews mit Angehörigen unterschiedlicher Generationen aus. Zum anderen fokussieren wir nicht nur den Gleichklang und damit die Weitergabe bestimmter Orientierungsmuster, sondern auch Mechanismen der Abgrenzung. Anhand einer fallexemplarischen Analyse zeigen wir, auf welche Weise wir die mit der Eltern- und Kindergeneration geführten narrativen Interviews methodisch aufeinander beziehen und dabei sowohl die einzelnen Biographien als auch die intergenerationalen Beziehungen in den Blick nehmen. Durch den permanenten Vergleich der Wahrnehmungs-, Deutungs- und Handlungsmuster zentraler Erlebnisse und Themen der Lebensgeschichten von Mutter und Tochter einerseits und die Berücksichtigung weiterer Beziehungsnetze sowie sozialräumlicher und institutioneller Rahmungen gelingt es, explizit auch Differenzen zwischen den Generationen und konstruierte Gegenwelten aufzuzeigen, die als Abgrenzungsfolie eine wichtige Funktion übernehmen.

Abstract:

Purpose – Popular literature argues that successive generations are experiencing more job changes and changes of employer. The “new careers” literature also proposes that career mobility patterns are becoming more diverse as people engage in more downward and lateral job changes and changes of occupation. The purpose of this paper is to test these assertions by comparing the career mobility patterns across four generations of workers. Design/methodology/approach – The authors analyzed the career mobility patterns of four generations of Canadian professionals (n=2,555): Matures (born prior to 1946); Baby Boomers (1946-1964); Generation Xers (1965-1979) and Millennials (1980 or later). Job mobility, organizational mobility and the direction of job moves were compared across groups through analysis of variance. Findings – Significant differences were observed in job mobility and organizational mobility of the various generations, with younger generations being more mobile. However, despite significant environmental shifts, the diversity of career patterns has not undergone a significant shift from generation to generation. Originality/value – This is the first quantitative study to examine shifting career mobility patterns across all four generations in today’s workplace. The authors extend previous research on generational differences in job mobility by using novel measures of career mobility that are more precise than extant measures.

Abstract:

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine work-to-family conflict and family-to-work conflict, taking into account generational cohort and life cycle stage differences. Design/methodology/approach Survey participants (428 employed individuals with families) represented different generations and life cycles. Key variables were work/family characteristics and centrality, work-family and family-work conflict, and age. Findings Generational differences in both directions were found. Gen X-ers reported the most work-family conflict, followed by Millennials and then Baby Boomers. Baby Boomers exhibited family-work conflict the most, followed by Gen X-ers, and then Millennials, a surprising finding given generational stereotypes. Some of these differences remained after controlling for children in the household (based on life cycle stage theory) and age. Millennials were highest in work centrality, whereas Baby Boomers were highest in family centrality. Employees with children ages 13-18 reported the most work-family conflict, and employees with children under the age of six reported the most family-work conflict. Research limitations/implications This study found that generation and children in the household make a difference in work-family conflict, but it did not support some of the common generational stereotypes. Future studies should use a time-lag technique to study generational differences. To reduce work-family conflict, it is important to consider its directionality, which varies across generations and life cycle stages. Practical implications This informs organizations on how to tailor interventions to help employees balance work/life demands. Originality/value This study is the first to simultaneously examine both generation and life cycle stage (children in the household) in regard to work-family conflict.

Abstract:

This article examines the determinants of men's early parental roles, distinguishing factors that affect being a father versus being childless, and factors that affect being a resident versus a nonresident father, in the context of having a partner or not. We also consider whether these patterns have changed between 1985 and 2004. The data come from the linked Child-Mother and Young Adult Samples of the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979 (NLSY79), which provide information on the children of the NLSY79 from birth until they enter young adulthood, and from the original youth sample of parallel ages. The results support previous research showing the importance of economic and educational disadvantages and nontraditional family structure on being a nonresident father. The effects of family structure appear to have attenuated between generations as determinants of men's early parental roles.

AbstractExploring generational changes and continuities among Palestinian families in Denmark, this article investigates why the children of thefidāᵓīn(fighters) and many of thefidāᵓīnthemselves have turned their backs on secular politics and embraced Islam. The Palestinians who arrived in Denmark from Lebanon in the wake of the Lebanese Civil War were members of the Palestinian Liberation Organization and were known as the generation of the revolution (jīl al-thawra). Extending Karl Mannheim's approach to generations, I argue that in order to explain the transition among Palestinians in Denmark from revolutionaries to Muslims we can rely on neither genealogy nor historical context alone, but need to pay equal attention to the structural continuities that crosscut generations. I suggest that rather than conceive of revolutionaries and Muslims as oppositions, we should think of them as substitutions, as liminal becomings that are actualized across historical generations.

Abstract:

Although exposure to stressors is known to increase disease susceptibility and accelerate ageing, evidence is accumulating that these effects can span more than one generation. Stressors experienced by parents have been reported to negatively influence the longevity of their offspring and even grand offspring. The mechanisms underlying these long-term, cross-generational effects are still poorly understood, but we argue here that telomere dynamics are likely to play an important role. In this review, we begin by surveying the current connections between stress and telomere dynamics. We then lay out the evidence that exposure to stressors in the parental generation influences telomere dynamics in offspring and potentially subsequent generations. We focus on evidence in mammalian and avian studies and highlight several promising areas where our understanding is incomplete and future investigations are critically needed. Understanding the mechanisms that link stress exposure across generations requires interdisciplinary studies and is essential to both the biomedical community seeking to understand how early adversity impacts health span and evolutionary ecologists interested in how changing environmental conditions are likely to influence age-structured population dynamics.

Abstract:

Emerging evidence suggests that people not only categorize themselves and others based on age but also in terms of their generational membership. This cross-cultural study compared attitudes and stereotypes toward age and generational groups across the life span in China, Germany, and the United States including 1,112 participants between 18 and 86 years of age. We asked younger, middle-aged, and older respondents to rate either six age groups (e.g., adolescents, young adults, middle-aged adults, young-old, older, and old-old adults) or six matching generational groups (e.g., Generation Z, Millennials, Generation X, Baby Boomer, Silent Generation, and Greatest Generation) on various characteristics (e.g., happy, competent, selfish). Consistent with our hypotheses, the results demonstrate that across all three countries older generations were perceived consistently more positive, whereas older age groups were perceived as less positive. These findings suggest that generations represent a source of positive regard and high social status in later life across different countries with different historical backgrounds and cultures.

Abstract:

The focus of this study is to investigate school bonding among adolescents in immigrant families using a segmented assimilation theoretical framework. Data are drawn from the Educational Longitudinal Study of 2002, a nationally representative sample of 10th graders. We focus on a subsample consisting of 9,870 first- ( N = 1,170, 12 %), second- ( N = 1,540, 16 %), and third-plus-generation ( N = 7,160, 73%) students in 580 public schools. Our findings suggest that adolescents’ school bond seems to diminish or “decline” as the children of immigrants assimilate. Implications for research on racial/ethnic and immigrant generational disparities in adolescent social bonds to school are also discussed.

Abstract:

Purpose - Similar experiences, values and beliefs shared among people of a generational cohort determines the choices that they make. This explains why people of the same generational cohort have distinct perceptions and tendencies towards investing. This paper focuses on generation differences in personal finance decisions. Objectives- The objective of the paper is to group the different personal finance variables into identifiable factors and to compare these personal finance factors across generations. Methodology - Data is collected through a primary survey with a structured questionnaire, among 140 respondents in Kolkata and Ranchi. Questions have been asked on personal finance behaviour, with their responses on a Likert scale. A Factor Analysis has been conducted on these questions to group them into different factors contributing to personal finance behaviour. These identified factors are also compared across generations. Findings - It was concluded that younger generations invest for the objective of keeping funds for emergency purposes, whereas older generations invest for their retirement needs. Younger generations usually invest for the short run, whereas older generations invest for the long run. Also, younger generations invest in easily accessible and popular investment avenues, whereas older invest in the most effective avenue. The items had clustered around six factors namely, Financial Planning, Use of Technology, Financial Independence, Financial Irresponsibility, Financial Openness and Use of Credit Cards. Originality- Behavioral differences across generations is an area that is studied across diverse topics and disciplines. However, very scarce studies have been conducted to assess generational differences in financial behaviour. Practical Implications- This paper attempts to bridge this gap by collecting financial data from respondents of all generations and making a comparison among them. This helps to understand the reasons for differences in investment behaviour of generations.

Abstract:

The diversity of spirituality patterns of generations in the church is a reality. Each generation has a unique style of spirituality. This uniqueness is a gift from God which of course is also shaped by the life experiences of each generation that is permitted by God. This challenges the church to carry out a generation-based ministry to develop the spirituality of the congregation. This paper helps ministers to understand the spiritual characteristics of each generation as a basis for developing intergenerational spirituality ministries. The uniqueness of the spirituality of generations must be embraced in the fellowship of the congregation as the family of God.

Abstract:

Interests in school library services and in library services to the disadvantaged ran through much of Anne Galler's professional work. This paper, a personal description of the author's work with the Sky City Community School Library (Acoma Pueblo, New Mexico), reflects these interests. Likewise, the fact that this work came about as part of an inter-generational and cross-cultural informal learning experience sponsored through an Elderhostel service project reflects Galler 's personal interest inlifelong learning, and learning in retirement. The program included intensive learning about the Acoma Pueblo, about the education of indigenous peoples, and about the culture of the Acoma Indians. The author concludes that the experience highlighted the value of life-long learning.
