Abstract:
Previous studies of people’s perceptions of intergenerational communication in many countries around the Pacific Rim suggest that aspects of intergenerational communication in some East Asian nations may be more problematic than in some Western ones. This study extends the earlier work by considering similarities and differences between Taiwanese and American young adults’ perceptions of communication with same-age peers and adults 65 years of age and older. As well, in an attempt to discover how the acculturation process may affect intergenerational relations, the perceptions of young Chinese-Americans were also examined. Two-hundred and three participants (including 98 Taiwanese, 47 Euro-Americans, and 59 Chinese-Americans) completed a questionnaire that assessed their perceptions of accommodation and nonaccommodation from members of the two age groups. Also assessed was the extent to which the participants felt deferential towards and avoidant of communication with these two age groups, as well as the experience of positive emotions in these interactions. Consistent with earlier work, young adults were more positive with regards to communication with other younger adults than with older adults, and Euro-Americans generally perceived interactions more positively than people in Taiwan. The Chinese-Americans were similar to the Taiwanese in some respects and similar to the Euro-Americans in others.

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:
Much work has shown that the environment can induce non-genetic changes in phenotype that span multiple generations. Theory predicts that predictable environmental variation selects for both increased within- and across-generation responses. Yet, to the best of our knowledge, there are no empirical tests of this prediction. We explored the relationship between within- versus across-generation plasticity by evaluating the influence of predator cues on the life-history traits of Daphnia ambigua . We measured the duration of predator-induced transgenerational effects, determined when transgenerational responses are induced, and quantified the cues that activate transgenerational plasticity. We show that predator exposure during embryonic development causes earlier maturation and increased reproductive output. Such effects are detectable two generations removed from predator exposure and are similar in magnitude in response to exposure to cues emitted by injured conspecifics. Moreover, all experimental contexts and traits yielded a negative correlation between within- versus across-generation responses. That is, responses to predator cues within- and across-generations were opposite in sign and magnitude. Although many models address transgenerational plasticity, none of them explain this apparent negative relationship between within- and across-generation plasticities. Our results highlight the need to refine the theory of transgenerational plasticity.

Abstract:
Purpose This paper aims to examine generational formative referents as factors that influence meeting attendees’ adoption and technology use within virtual and hybrid meetings, and test the applicability of the technology acceptance model (TAM) as presented by Davis (1986). This study investigates how attendees’ experiences from their respective formative years (i.e. generational formative referents), the basis of the Generational Cohort Theory (GCT), influence the TAM model constructs. Design/methodology/approach A partial least squares analysis test is utilized to determine technology acceptance within meetings across three generations: Baby Boomers (1946-1964), Generation X (1965-1978) and Generation Y (1979-2000). Findings The multi-group comparison determined all three generations responded similarly with regard to the paths being tested, indicating each of the three generational cohorts within this study are influenced by the experiences of their formative years, which are different for each generation. Research limitations/implications The findings add to the limited foundation for scholars wanting to further analyze technology use within meetings, and for those interested in generational influences. Practical implications This study provides useful information for marketers and planners to increase meeting attendance, enhance attendee satisfaction, and further explore meeting engagement opportunities. Originality/value Underpinning the GCT, this study is the first within hospitality and tourism studies to investigate a theoretical model on generational technology use within meetings.

Abstract:
There is evidence to suggest that an impaired ability to process distressing and threatening emotional stimuli may result in a callous-unemotional (CU) and thrill-andadventure- seeking (TAS) personality. In this study we examined emotional processing in fifty community children, each with one parent, using the emotional pictures dot-probe task, which is a computerized task measuring attention to emotional pictures in the form of a facilitation score. The relationship between emotional processing, CU traits, and TAS were examined to determine whether individuals high on CU traits would also be more TAS, and show a lack of facilitation to emotional pictures. The results generally did not support study hypotheses; however, post-hoc analyses comparing children based on ethnicity found that Caucasian and minority children with CU traits show different and often opposite affective responses to emotional pictures, as well as different behavioral correlates to these traits.

Abstract:
Essay 1 (with Juha Alho and Edward Palmer):  All around the world, public pension schemes are moving in the direction of non-financial (NDC) and financial defined contribution (DC) schemes.  Both rely on accurate projections of life expectancy in the creation of annuities. Accurate projections are critical for system stability, individual utility and inter-generational welfare. This paper suggests a path-breaking innovation that changes the perspective from the Lee-carter (LC) family of trend models which assume a constant rate of change in mortality over time. Our approach is to project the cohort life expectancy on basis of the specific cohort rate of change in mortality. This relaxes the strong trend assumption underlying the LC model, which is the reason why LC model does not work well in the phase of accelerating or decelerating mortality. We use unisex mortality data for $8$ countries to test the performance of our approach both ex-post and ex-ante. The ex-post experiment shows that our approach generally performs better when the rate of change in mortality is accelerating and performs as well as LC model when the rate of change is time-invariant. The ex-ante experiment, on the other hand, shows that our model almost always delivers higher projection of remaining life expectancy than the LC model for the more recent cohorts, which is consistent with the ex-post experimental results.
Essay 2:  Due to the systematic underestimation of cohort life expectancy, NDC pension schemes face a financial risk that can leads to inter-generational unfairness, given the current practice. This paper proposes an alternative method of computing annuity to address this problem. The proposal is to adjust the annuity based on re-estimations of the remaining life expectancy at intervals after retirement, but only up to a ceiling age. The scheme is assessed using 208 cohort annuity pools from eight sample countries. This experiment shows that the proposed scheme succeeds in reducing the inter-generational unfairness for 60-80% of the cohort annuity pools, compared to current practice of fixing the annuity at age 65. Because the adjustment is borne by the relatively large group of younger persons, the per capita change in utility is rather small assuming risk neutrality.
Essay 3:  This paper studies how the incentive to retire in a DC (NDC) scheme is influenced by engaging private information on life expectancy. This is an important question since the decisions made under the two scenarios, optimizing using the private life expectancy or the cohort average made available by the pension provider, create different welfare and financial outcomes. The analytical framework is a standard life-cycle model, accounting for monetary gain from work and non-monetary gain from leisure. The unique feature here is that the individual life expectancy is an explicit driver of disutility of work. The theoretical result is that prevailing private information of a longer-than-average life expectancy can lead to both advancing and delaying retirement, depending on other factors determining utility. The numerical example using Swedish data proves the theoretical results and suggests a rather small average impact on the choice of retirement by engaging private information of life expectancy.
Essay 4:   Pensions in the increasingly popular Notional Defined Contribution (NDC) Pay-as-You-Go Schemes are granted based on cohort-specific life expectancy, regardless socioeconomic differences. This risks perverse intra-generational and unintended inter-generational transfers. This paper introduces an alternative with separate annuity pools for different socioeconomic classes. Using unique Swedish data and the Swedish NDC pension system as an example, the analysis shows a significant gap in life expectancy between socioeconomic classes defined by occupation. In the Swedish context, this implies a perverse transfer of 5% of the pension capital from the manual workers to the non-manual workers, which can be abolished by using the group plan. In addition, the group plan also lessens the risk of inter-generational transfers resulting from the gap in life expectancy.

Abstract:
La graine constitue le point de départ du cycle d’une plante et abrite une diversité de micro-organismes qui peuvent impacter négativement ou positivement la fitness de la plante. De plus, la graine permet la dispersion et la survie des agents phytopathogènes entre deux cycles de culture de la plante hôte. Dans ce contexte, l’objectif de ce travail était de : (i) décrypter les processus écologiques impliqués dans l’acquisition du microbiote des graines, (ii) analyser sa réponse à l’invasion par des agents phytopathogènes et(iii) suivre sa dynamique durant la germination de la graine et l’émergence de la plantule. Premièrement, nous avons analysé la structure du microbiote de graines de radis(Raphanus sativus) produites dans un même site sur trois générations successives. Ces analyses ont révélé une faible héritabilité du microbiote des graines avec peu de taxons dominants transmis d’une génération à l’autre. Ceci pourrait être expliqué par l’importance des processus neutres dans l’assemblage du microbiote des graines.Ensuite, nous avons étudié la réponse de ce microbiote à une invasion par Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris(Xcc) et Alternaria brassicicola (Ab), deux agents phytopathogènes transmis par les graines. La transmission de Xcc aux graines n’impacte pas la composition globale du microbiote. En revanche, la transmission d’Ab modifie la structure des communautés fongiques. Ces différences de réponse sont probablement dues aux compétitions pour l’espace et les nutriments entre l’agent phytopathogène et les autres membres du microbiote. Finalement, la composition et la structure du microbiote des graines germées et des plantules ont révélé une transmission de la majorité des taxons associés à la graine y compris Xcc etAb. Globalement, les résultats de ce travail de thèse permettront à terme d’élaborer des stratégies de biocontrôle basées sur la modulation du microbiote des graines
Seed represents the initial step of the plant life cycle and harbors diverse microorganisms that can have detrimental or beneficial impacts on plant fitness. Moreover, seed represents an important means of pathogen dispersion and survival during intercrop periods. For those reasons, the aims of this work were to (i) unveil the ecological processes involved in the acquisition of the seedmicrobiota, (ii) to analyze its response against plant pathogens invasion and (iii) to monitor its dynamics during the first plant developmental stages, namely germination and emergence. First, we assessed the structure of the radish seed microbiota (Raphanus sativus) in the same experimental site across three successive plant generations. These analyses revealed a low heritability of the seed microbiota with few dominant taxa transmitted across generations. Neutral-based processes seem to be important in assembly of the seed microbiota. Second, we monitored the response of the seed microbiota to invasions by Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc) and Alternaria brassicicola (Ab), two seed-transmitted pathogens. While Xcc seed transmission do not change the composition of microbial communities, Ab transmission modified the structure of seed-associated fungal communities. This differences in response could be partly explained by competition for space and nutrients between the pathogenic agents and the members of the seed microbiota. Finally, composition and structure of microbial communities associated to germinating seed and seedling revealed transmission of most seed-borne microorganisms including Xcc and Ab from seed to seedling. Altogether, the results of this thesis could be helpful for designing future biocontrol strategies based on seed microbiota modulation

Abstract:
How does a shared lexicon arise in population of agents with differing lexicons, and how can this shared lexicon be maintained over multiple generations? In order to get some insight into these questions we present an ALife model in which the lexicon dynamics of populations that possess and lack metacommunicative interaction (MCI) capabilities are compared.
We ran a series of experiments on multi-generational populations whose initial state involved agents possessing distinct lexicons. These experiments reveal some clear differences in the lexicon dynamics of populations that acquire words solely by introspection contrasted with populations that learn using MCI or using a mixed strategy of introspection and MCI.
The lexicon diverges at a faster rate for an introspective population, eventually collapsing to one single form which is associated with all meanings. This contrasts sharply with MCI capable populations in which a lexicon is maintained, where every meaning is associated with a unique word. We also investigated the effect of increasing the meaning space and showed that it speeds up the lexicon divergence for all populations irrespective of their acquisition method.

Abstract:
This research examines the labour force characteristics of several generations of Italian men working in Toronto. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, the analysis focuses on differences in participation and occupational status characteristics between generations of Italian workers. This study also investigates the social and geographic factors that may underpin observed labour market outcomes for men. In particular, the study focuses on social processes mediated by interpersonal relations constituted in and across particular locales (such as the home and schools). Some possible explanations for differences in the labour market status of generations of Italian men are presented, including a discussion of the messages transmitted within families about education, the influence of residential locale on labour market opportunities, and an exploration of the ways that gender roles influence the strategies and expectations for men with regard to work.

Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Sloan School of Management, 2009.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 75-76).
The current American workplace is made up of members of four distinct generations: "Veterans" (born between 1922-1943), "Boomers" (born between 1943-1960), "Generation X" (born between 1960 - 1980), and "Generation Y" (born between 1980 and 2000). Members of each generation bring to the workplace very distinct assumptions regarding technology, expertise, and rewards. This thesis explores the nature of differences in assumptions across all four generations. It takes the two most relevant to the current work environment, Boomers and Generation Y, and analyzes how their different approaches to technology, expertise and rewards cause conflict in the workplace. After conducting a literature review on conflict and change management at work, I propose a process for preventing and mitigating generational conflict at work.

Abstract:
AbstractThe digital divide within and across generations is often explained by older persons’ exclusion from, or limited access to technologies, as well as reluctant uptake on their part. However, given the interdependencies between young and old in the developing world, cell phones offer potential for people to connect across and within generations. This chapter considers the body of main transferable themes emerging from the present study in terms of eInclusion of older persons beyond the temporal and particular. We highlight in particular the value of taking an intergenerational approach; utilizing the intergenerational contact zones (IZCs) generated around and through the cell phone; using planned intergenerational programming (IP) for eInclusion; and older-user-centric participation in any development and implementation of technologies. The bottom line to aim for is a person-relevant and technology/environment fit to enhance the lives of all older adults and to benefit society as a whole.

AbstractIn this chapter I contrast the economic and cultural perspective of intergenerational transmission processes of social inequality in demographic behavior. I systematically compile the underlying social mechanisms that are scattered across the literature and apply them to the relationships investigated within the CONOPP project. Identifying a predominant focus on the parental resource perspective in the literature linking family background and young adult demographic behavior, I argue in favor of widening the theoretical perspective. Greater theoretical width will enable social scientists to more comprehensively grasp the persistent social stratification of demographic behavior across generations and the role of context in moderating these relationships. I conclude with some suggestions on how future research can further push the boundaries of understanding these relationships.

Abstract:
Numerous studies have examined and predicted the usage of e-commerce Web sites using the Technology Acceptance Model and its primary constructs of perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. Smith (2008) conducted an empirical study of four e-commerce Web sites with participation from a unique and often understudied segment of the population - the senior generation. In addition, he called for additional research on the same e-commerce Web sites with participants from today's student population, a generation that has grown up with computers and the Internet. During the Spring 2008 semester, the authors duplicated Smith's research and conducted a field experiment with a purposeful sample of students enrolled in four courses in the School of Information Technology at Macon State College. Consistent with the conclusion by Smith, of significant worth is the test of the robustness of the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) when applied to e-commerce adoption by both the senior generation and the net generation.

Abstract:
The analysis of generational differences has been a relevant topic in some social sciences for the last years. Happiness as a phenomenon has just recently become a focal point of psychologists. There has still been little research into determinants of happiness in different generations. In the research paper, the author explores the relationship between perceptions of happiness across generations and the values that accompany them. The study was carried out with the use of such methods as content-analysis, factor analysis, the technique of S. Schwartz, statistic methods. Main results: the main associations obtained for the stimulus word ‘happiness’ are highlighted and described; a comparison of the results from the factor analysis is given. The author comes to a generalised conclusion regarding the important difference in the understanding of happiness between generations X (the relevance of health) and Y (the relevance of an interesting life) and regarding the similarity of other notions of ‘happiness’ across generations. Differences in perceptions of happiness were found: for generation X it is health, for generation Y it is an interesting life. Both of the generation share the opinion that the most significant markers of human happiness are a healthy family, strong personal relationships, a job, a home and wealth. Safety and tranquillity are also important, but with the above, all setbacks are overcome as temporary obstacles that add to one’s sense of ‘happiness’. The hypothesis that perceptions of happiness are determined by different values due to intergenerational differences has been confirmed.

Abstract:
Developing multiple-generation of products has become a mainstream tactic in today’s markets. The most notable case is Apple Inc.’s huge success with its iPod, iPhone and iPad product lines. Multiple-generation product lines require carefully planned strategies. Under a multiple-generation product development strategy, companies introduce a line of products to the market instead of introducing a single product to better utilize technology assets and resources in an elongated time span. For such product development and launch scenarios, cannibalization can occur, however. That is, multiple product generations compete in the same market and partition the company’s market shares. In the paper, we propose a new framework to predict the sales and introduction timing for every product generation in a multiple-generation product line while considering cannibalization. We demonstrate a case study implementing the proposed framework on Apple Inc.’s iPhone product line. The results show that the forecast performance of the model matches the realized real data.

Abstract:
Abstract Designers have historically used existing solutions as a baseline for modifying and improving the next generation solution. However, it is also possible that certain design solutions are pursued by designers irrelevant of previous design history, suggesting that there is some dominant system architecture for a given set of requirements. While the reason for system architecture similarities can never be determined with certainty without consulting designers, it is possible to speculate about why design decisions might have been made, especially when certain system architectures and design elements have dominated a space for so long. The NASA SL Challenge serves as a compelling area for study, given that NASA SL vehicle and recovery performance requirements are similar each year, while payload integration and payload function requirements differ each year. Student design teams are tasked with designing a new launch vehicle and payload each year to meet all of the requirements. Despite yearly changes in payload requirements, some teams’ vehicle architectures remain largely unchanged, prompting a question of whether these design solutions are inherently used because of the nature of the design problem or if it is a reuse of previous design solutions. To investigate this question, we relate system requirements to vehicle elements using a DSM-style requirements mapping process. These relationships are then translated into tree structures that are centered around a single element/requirement. Finally, the tree structures are analyzed to determine why certain design solutions may have been selected based on entanglement between requirements. These mappings are used to identify areas of tension between requirements and independent variables within system architectures for a NASA SL team. Our analysis of the mappings allows us to suggest that certain elements of system architectures or mission profile may be more dominant, that is more favorable, based solely on the design problem definition. In NASA SL for example, teams could target a lower apogee because it aids in meeting entangled recovery requirements. In future work we will explore how requirements mapping can be used to identify dominant architectures during the conceptual phase of design. Finally, based on observations made in this case study, there is evidence that requirements mappings could help guide the strategic placement of excess in a system. Future work is needed to determine how requirements mapping could support the placement of excess and to explore how to conduct requirements mapping in a streamlined and efficient way.

Abstract:
International trade is an important engine for economies and SMEs to grow and sustain. Despite globalization, regionalization or other processes with a direct impact to international business, SMEs experience a pressure of external and internal factors. External factors can make an impact and initiate a continuous need to enhance productivity and apply innovations to respond to fierce competition. These factors can also be emerging disruptive technologies, barriers to trade, reviewed trade agreements. Internal factors can be capacity building, working culture and motivation, leadership, strategic management, also closely related to decision making processes across different managerial levels and staff generations. Managers variety of attitudes to international trade related elements could cause conflict situations on decision making, damage corporate culture, decrease motivation, slow down international expansion and make a direct impact on diminishing both SMEs productivity and competition.

Abstract:
This paper proposes and demonstrates a protocol for measuring information generated throughout a design process. The intent is to provide a consistent approach to allow the comparison of different design procedures and processes. The proposed method divides the design process into requirement, function, and component domains occurring within design iterations. To measure information or complexity in each of these domains, the elements describing the domains are counted and their mappings within and across the domains are computed. The results show that the proposed protocol and information metrics produce data points of comparable order across all domains under different design situations. Furthermore, it is shown that within-domain-coupling and across-domain-coupling metrics should be accommodate the continual increase in element count size without hiding relative changes in information generation throughout the process. When this correction is applied, it is observed that across-domain-coupling displays a decaying process of converging and diverging towards a steady state level. This presents possible support for the concepts of modeling the design process as a series of convergent and divergent processes while also suggesting that such oscillation may not be necessary.

Abstract:
Abstract This work demonstrates the successful synthesis of path generating compliant mechanisms by the process of topology and shape design optimization. As geometric topology variation of continuum structures is difficult to treat and analysis of the displacement path or trajectory of such structures is computationally intensive, a highly effective and efficient optimization methodology is needed. This paper describes the use of a recently developed morphological geometric representation scheme coupled with an evolutionary algorithm to synthesize the mechanism. The scheme uses arrangements of skeleton and ‘flesh’ to define structural geometry, which facilitates transmission of topological/shape characteristics across generations in the evolutionary process and will not render any geometrically invalid designs. The evolutionary algorithm solves the problem as a discrete optimization problem, with a proficient constraint handling capability.

Abstract:
There is increasing evidence that wellbeing is unequally distributed across sociodemographicgroups in contemporary societies. However, less is known about thedivergence across social groups of trajectories of wellbeing across age groups.This issue is of great relevance in contexts characterised by changing populationstructures and growing imbalances across and within generations, and in whichensuring that everyone has the opportunity to have a happy and healthy life courseis a primary welfare goal. In this study, we investigate wellbeing trends in Franceand Switzerland across age, gender, and socioeconomic status groups. We use twohousehold surveys (the Sant´e et Itin´eraires Professionnels and the Swiss HouseholdPanel) to compare the unfolding inequalities in health and wellbeing across agegroups in two rich countries. We view wellbeing as multidimensional, followingthe literature highlighting the importance of considering different dimensions andmeasures of wellbeing. Thus, we investigate a number of outcomes, includingdifferent measures of physical and mental health, as well as of relational wellbeing,using a linear regression model and a linear probability model. Our findings showinteresting country and dimension-specific heterogeneities in the development ofhealth and wellbeing over age. While our results indicate that there are gender andeducational inequalities in both Switzerland and France, and that gender inequalitiesin mental health accumulate with age in both countries, we also find that educationalinequalities in health and wellbeing remain rather stable across age groups.
