Full textAbstract:
Most undergraduate students today are part of the millennial generation. However, the next wave of students—Generation Z—are just beginning to enter universities. Although these groups share many similarities, they each have unique characteristics that create challenges in the classroom. Incorporating technology, engaging students with adaptive learning activities, and understanding basic generational differences are ways to limit the effects of generational conflict while keeping both millennials and Generation Z students engaged in learning. It is important to understand basic differences and distinctions across generations for developing pedagogy that reaches these unique student populations.

PurposeYoung consumers are recognized as an important and lucrative segment for the businesses across the globe. While initial steps have been taken to understand them, majority of the existing works consider both Millennials and Generation Z as a single and homogeneous market segment. The purpose of this study is to explore the consumer decision-making styles which are prevalent among Indian Millennials and Generation Z e-shoppers, and how significantly they differ from one another on each of those decision-making attributes.Design/methodology/approachThis exploratory study used the generational cohort theory (GCT) as a framework. The psychographic statements (Questionnaire items) employed were adopted from several past researches on store orientation and catalog orientation, and they were rephrased to suit to the context of Indian online shopping. The principal components factor analysis with promax rotation has been used to unearth the underlying decision-styles among 503 survey participants. Subsequently, the ANOVA model was run to examine the mean differences between the cohorts.FindingsThe factor analysis has revealed that frugality (Price), convenience (Home) and social desirableness are the most dominant shopping orientations (decision-styles) that prevail among Indian (Millennials and Generation Z) online shoppers though in varying degrees. The probing of ANOVA results suggested that, though both the cohorts favor e-shopping, Generation Z are more enthusiastic about online shopping than their Millennial counterparts do.Practical implicationsThough Generation Z and Millennials share few characteristics between them, they exhibit different consumer behaviors. Marketers need to customize their value offerings and marketing communications that resonate well with each generational cohort.Originality/valueAlmost all the existing research works that have been conducted so far on generational cohorts are from Western and European countries and one could confidently say that those findings cannot be applied for the developing nations such as India which is a complex and diverse country in terms of its language, custom, religion and practices with troublesome pasts. Moreover, this is the first empirical work to be conducted to unearth the generational differences that exist between Generation Z and Millennials to the best of authors' knowledge.

Abstract Corporate culture is made by the company´s employees. However, their age composition is different and is members of different generations that interact. Every generation brings with it something new, not only positive but also negative. Therefore, each generation should work together to eliminate the negative aspects and highlight the benefits of each generation and exploit them to their advantage. Each of the generations influences the corporate culture in different ways. The aim of the paper is to point out the results of research, which was realized at Faculty of Materials Science and Technology in Trnava and focused on individual generations of employees. We draw attention especially to the Generation Z, its impact on corporate culture and the new “wind” that it brings. This paper was written on the basis of research results of VEGA project No.1/0348/17 “The impact of the coexistence of different generations of employees on the sustainable performance of organisations”.

Full textAbstract:
Generation Z is gaining popularity as the name used to refer to those born beginning in the mid to late 1990s. This is the generation that follows the Millennials, and they are just starting to arrive on college campuses. Much attention has been paid to Millennials and their impact on society, and because of this Generation Z members are often lumped together with this older cohort. But Generation Z students are unique, and universities and colleges must prepare to meet the challenges of instructing this new generation. Engineering educators in particular are being challenged to adapt to the speed of technological change. Faculty must consider how to adjust to this new environment, including the changing needs and expectations of Generation Z students. This paper explores these topics. The first section will explore the concept of a generation and describe some of the attributes associated with Generation Z. The second section will review the development of engineering education in the United States and some of the major reforms that have occurred in the past 100 years. The last section will discuss potential changes in the classroom to try and address some of the characteristics of Generation Z students.

Purpose The purpose of the study is to group Lebanese wine consumers based on generational cohorts. It also explores the characteristics of the customers in each group based on wine attributes, information sources, wine consumption, purchase behaviour and socio-economic characteristics. Design/methodology/approach The data in the study were collected from the main supermarkets, hypermarkets and special liquor outlets, as well as upscale restaurants serving alcohol in the Lebanese capital, Beirut, through a structured questionnaire. Respondents were intercepted by using convenience sampling. Out of 700 people approached, 444 surveys were collected. Findings After splitting consumers into four different generational groups, namely, baby boomers, Generation X, millennials and Generation Z, the study clearly identified the differences between generations regarding wine attributes, information sources, purchasing and consumption and socio-demographic characteristics. Originality/value Although there are numerous studies on the investigation of wine consumers in the literature from various countries, this is the first study looking at wine consumers in one of the Middle Eastern countries, Lebanon.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to outline the profile of Italian tourists belonging to the new generations: Millennials or Generation Y (approximately people born in the 1980-1995 period) and post-Millennials or Generation Z (approximately people born in the 1996-2010 period). Design/methodology/approach After reviewing some of the more interesting research on Millennials and post-Millennials, the paper will present the results of an unpublished online empirical survey conducted on a sample of 200 Italian web users who agreed to participate. The questionnaire, administered via computer-assisted web interviewing system, consists of structured questions concerning the practices, attitudes, emerging needs and use of new technologies that characterize Millennials and post-Millennials, with a special focus on tourism. Findings The research will consider the differences between the two groups, as well as possible differences within each group linked to other socio-demographic variables (such as gender and area of residence). Originality/value The paper addresses a series of innovative questions: what are the practices of Millennials and Post-Millennials as tourists? What are the needs of these generations that the tourist industry must respond to? How do new technologies support Millennials and post-Millennials in their tourism choices? What are the main differences between Millennials and post-Millennials?

Full textAbstract:
The relevance of the study is associated with the transformation of media consumption of the young generation under the influence of the realities of the information society. Of particular theoretical significance is the identification of the degree of objectivity of the rationale for differentiating the young generation of media consumers into two sub-groups – Y and Z. The empirical basis was both the results of studies of youth media consumption presented by various domestic authors, as well as their own study of media consumption by Tambov schoolchildren and students. The research material is the online publications Meduza and NR, which were named as the source of news by the majority of the polled millenials and centenials. The methodological base of the work is based on a systematic approach and a comparative method. The results of this study show that the media consumption of generations Y and Z has identical characteristics: multitasking thinking, a high level of technological culture, the desire for active consumption of information, the need for individual choice of media content. However, one can state the objectivity of justifying the differentiation of the young generation of media consumers into two subgroups. Millennials are characterized by egocentricity, centennials – by tolerance; in the content of information for generation Y, an element of the game is obligatory, and for generation Z – the actual basis; millennials are self-confident, open to various streams of information, while centenials are distinguished by an ironic view of the world.

Full textAbstract:
The Millennials, or Generation Y, have been receiving increasing attention as these young people have entered tertiary institutions and the workplace over the past decade. Their behavior towards authority is coming under sharper scrutiny as they prepare to move into leadership positions. For example, their assertiveness received both positive and negative attention in the South African media during the “fees must fall” campaign. While parents, caregivers, teachers, and employers wonder about the best approach to Millennials, Generation Z are also entering post-secondary schools. Parenting approaches and the role of technology are being reevaluated. Within this context the article provides strategies that might be used to understand and guide these generations, thus helping avoid a generation gap that would threaten healthy relationships with our youth. After highlighting the differences between the attributes of these generations of young people and the generations who raised them, concepts such as character qualities, digital nativeness, and global civic engagement will receive attention. The convergence of such concepts will be used to recommend strategies for use in the parenting and teaching of Generations Y and Z.

Full textAbstract:
Sociology is being challenged by the new generation of students and scholars who have another view of society. Millennial/Gen Zs are the most progressive generation since the 1960s. We have had many opportunities to discuss and imagine power, diversity, and social change when we teach them in our classes or attend their campus events. Some Millennial/Gen Z believe, especially those in academia, that social scientists are tied to old theories and ideologies about race and gender, among other inconsistencies. These old ideas do not resonate with their views regarding equity. Millennials are not afraid to challenge the status quo. They do so already by supporting multiple gender and race identities. Several questions come to mind. How do we as sociologists with our sense of history and other issues such as racial and gender inequality help them along the way? Are we ready for this generation? Are they ready for us?

Information and Communication Technology has always been part of the lives of millennials, generation Z and Alpha, a significant difference in the learning process compared to previous generations. In the current educational environment, the meaning of "knowing" has shifted from being able to remember and repeat information to being able to find and use it. In an era with rapid technological development, student-centered learning environments are more constructivist and flexible and more suitable for building student’s knowledge. To prepare students for success in the development of the knowledge economy, new developments in the education system and learning environment are needed. The learning model in terms of curriculum, room quality, space configuration, and the program is adapted to the millennial teachers teaching behavior and generation Z and alpha students learning behavior so as to produce a collaborative learning environment between the millennial generation as teachers and generation Z and alpha as students. Contemporary schools with design strategies that provide flexibility, connectivity, freedom, space for social interaction and the education of their students. Curiculum and space programs that provide innovative elementary learning programs for indoor and outdoor play and learning taking into account children's physical, cognitive, emotional and social developmental aspects. Contemporary Elementary School is a mandatory formal education institution for children aged 7-12 years with a 6 years term that integrates contemporary education methods in the perspective of millennial, Z and Alpha.

Private universities in Indonesia are self-sustaining as they depend mainly on enrollments for revenues. Human capital is the main asset that they must sagaciously manage and constantly rejuvenate. With millennials constituting 40% of the country's population, this study aims to identify the performance factors of Generation Z faculty members in private universities to attain long-term sustainability. These second-wave millennials enter the workforce early compared to other generations, possess high work ambitions, but they are fraught with stress when striving to achieve higher performance and establishing long-term commitment. The phenomenology research strategy was undertaken in five private universities. Triangulation methodology through interviews, observations, and archives, in addition to source triangulation that involves 20 informants made up of faculty members and their direct supervisors were conducted. The findings denoted the significance of individual motivation, self-determination, job satisfaction, and organization commitment to achieve performance. Furthermore, this study offers insights for leadership to embrace their generation Z faculty members for the longevity of the institutions.

This study investigates the Millennials and Gen Z perception toward Fintech services, their usage intention, and their financial behavior. The study took place in the Palestinian context with a global comparison among these generations. The authors used the questionnaire-based technique to meet the study objective. West Bank respondents were selected for this purpose; the study instrument was distributed through different social media channels. The findings show that reliability/trust and ease of use are the main issues in using a financial service. Millennials are more aware (48%) of Fintech services than Gen Z (38%), which is different from the global view where Gen Z is the highest. The smartphone penetration rate is 100% among both generations, while the financial inclusion ratio in Palestine is around 36.4%; these clear indicators are the main Fintech drivers to promote Fintech services in Palestine, and these are global indicators for Fintech adoption intention. Both generations (84%) intend to use e-wallet services, Millennials (87%) and Gen Z is (70%) prefer using real-time services. Half of the respondents see that Fintech plays a complementary role with banks. The majority see that Fintech services are cheaper than bank services. Wealth management, and robot advisor services, and both generations are looking to acquire them in the long run. The authors revealed that 85% of respondents from both generations trust banks, so it is recommended that banks digitize their financial services to meet the customers’ needs, considering that 90% of respondents see that promotions are a key issue in adopting Fintech services. Promoting e-wallet services by banks is highly recommended due to the massive rivalry with Fintech parties.

Adapun teori yang digunakan adalah perilaku komunikasi, komunikasi interpersonal, komunikasi generasi milenial, komunikasi generasi Z, media baru, dan behaviorisme sosial. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan fenomenologi Alfred Schutz dengan paradigma konstruktivisme. Penelitian ini menganalisis perilaku komunikasi generasi milenial dan generasi Z era digital di Kecamatan Kuranji dari sepuluh orang informan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan empat perilaku generasi milenial dan generasi Z terbentuk di Kecamatan Kuranji, yaitu perilaku komunikasi dari aktif menjadi pasif disebabkan oleh gawai, berkurangnya komunikasi tatap muka disebabkan oleh gawai, tidak fokus dalam berkomunikasi disebabkan oleh gawai, dan perilaku komunikasi daring disebabkan oleh gawai. Dalam penelitian ini, dapat ditarik kesimpulan bahwa perilaku generasi milenial dan generasi Z yang semula interaktif sebelum menggunakan gawai, setelah menggunakan gawai proses komunikasinya menjadi pasif, sehingga tidak terjadi komunikasi efektif. In the digital era, there has been a change in the communication behavior of millennial generation and generation Z. These changes can be seen in everyday life, such as the lack of face-to-face interaction due to the presence of devices. This phenomenon also occurs in the millennial generation and generation Z in Kuranji District. This study aims to describe the communication behavior of millennials and generation Z in Kuranji District and to see the degradation of communication interfaces that occurs. The theories used are communication behavior, interpersonal communication, millennial generation communication, generation Z communication, new media, and social behaviorism. This study used Alfred Schutz's phenomenological approach with the constructivism paradigm. This study analyzes the communication behavior of the millennial generation and generation Z in the digital era in Kuranji District from ten informants. The results showed that four millennial generation and generation Z behaviors were formed in Kuranji District, namely communication behavior from active to passive caused by devices, reduced face-to-face communication caused by devices, not focusing on communication caused by devices, and online communication behavior caused by devices. In this study, it can be concluded that the behavior of the millennial generation and generation Z, which was originally interactive before using a device, after using a device the communication process becomes passive, so there is no effective communication.

On the other hand, the uncertainty of the young generation facing their own times is loaded with inherited values which are always in conflict with the principles of modern life. This paper tries to analyze how these generations are presented into the film. Taking the film Turah as a research material, the author wants to analyze further how the character of the figures in this film represents his generation.

Scholars and policy makers are giving increasing attention to how young people are involved in politics and their confidence in the current democratic system. In a context of a global trust crisis in the European Union, this paper examines if open government data, a promising governance strategy, may help to boost Millennials’ and Generation Z trust in public institutions and satisfaction with public outcomes. First, results from our preliminary analysis challenge some popular beliefs by revealing that younger generations tend to trust in their institutions notably more than the rest of the European citizens. In addition, our findings show that open government data is a trust-enabler for Millennials and Generation Z, not only through a direct link between both, but also thanks to the mediator role of citizens’ satisfaction. Accordingly, public officers are encouraged to spread the implementation of open data strategies as a way to improve younger generations’ attachment to democratic institutions.

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.

The aim of this study was to measure the influence of psychological antecedents of consumer decision-making styles of millennial consumer’s innovativeness in Botswana. The study adopted a quantitative survey in gathering data from millennial consumers. Structured questionnaires with Likert scales were utilized in data collection. The targeted population comprised of 400 generation Y consumers in which 320 were successfully selected and tested through convenience sampling. The study results indicated that millennial consumers in Botswana are under no time pressure to complete their shopping activities and highly materialistic in their shopping choices. They are independent shoppers impervious to interpersonal influence and confident of their shopping decision-making. The results also revealed that millennial consumers in Botswana identify themselves as independent decision makers that do not rely on external influence. Finally, the study results pointed out that the greater majority of Batswana millennials are cognitive innovators than sensory innovators. The researchers recommended that retailers must be encouraged to add excitement in shopping amenities to attract and retain millennial sensory innovators. Tangible evidence on future research is also required on the actual effects of modern smart shopping on generational transformation from Gen X, Y to Z.

Full textAbstract:
Background. Advances in information and communication technologies (ICTs) represent a growing platform for the expansion of healthcare related services, but there is little information on how generational differences might account for distinct patterns of use and interest for ICTs. Our study aims to achieve a better understanding on how generational cohorts might influence the use and preferences for ICTs among patients with obstructive lung diseases in Latin America. Materials and Methods. We conducted an anonymous cross-sectional survey-based study, involving 968 patients with obstructive lung diseases (OLD) in Latin America. Patients rated their frequency of use and preferences of ICTs through a modified version of the Michigan Questionnaire. Chi-square test for association and adjusted regression analyses were performed. Results. Of all, 63.6% of participants had Internet access. Younger generations, in particular Generation Z and Millennials, had the highest rate of Internet access and smartphone ownership, as well as of overall frequency of ICT use. Web-based Internet was found to be the main source to seek information about the disease (36.9%) across all generational cohorts. Generation Z and Millennials presented the highest odds to be interested in using Twitter (OR 31.79 and 8.86) for receiving health-related information, and email (OR 4.87 and 4.86) as the preferred way to ask physicians information related to their disease through ICTs. Conclusion. Generational cohorts influence the use and preferences for ICTs among patients with obstructive lung diseases. Younger generational cohorts were associated with higher access to the Internet and smartphone ownership, as well as higher interest for using ICTs to receive and ask for health-related information.

Abstract Background Previous research has shown millennials represent the fastest growing generation for those infected with the hepatitis C virus (HCV). Millennials are also a key driver in the opioid crisis, particularly in states of the Appalachian region including Kentucky. Despite research demonstrating a change in prevalence from baby boomers (born 1945–1965) to millennials (born 1980–1995), large representative studies providing evidence of the magnitude of this demographic shift are lacking in the United States. Our objective was to assess trends of HCV infection since 2016 in a large healthcare system located in an area of high prevalence of opioid use and HCV infection. Methods All individuals were screened for HCV infection in 2016, 2017, and 2018 within Norton Healthcare per standard risk-based criteria (e.g., injection drug users, baby boomers, etc.) as recommended by CDC, except for pregnant women who were universally screened since 2016. We tested for demographic shifts over time using longitudinal and time series analyses techniques Results A total of 86,243 individuals were screened for HCV infection from 2016 to 2018. Of those, 2,615 (3.0%) individuals screened positive for chronic HCV. The average age of those infected significantly decreased by an average of 3.7 years annually (from 47.3 years in 2016 to 39.9 years in 2018, P < 0.001). We forecast a plateau near the age of 28 years will be observed in just over 7 years. In addition, the proportion of millennials increased over time (33.6% in 2016, 42.4% in 2017 and 51.4% in 2018, P < 0.001), while baby boomers significantly decreased over time (44.0% in 2016, 38.8% in 2017, and 29.3% in 2018, P < 0.001). Lastly, over time, those with chronic HCV were more likely to be male (increasing from 49.6% to 54.4%, P = 0.008) and Hispanic (increasing from 1.6% to 17.7%, P < 0.001) Conclusion Our results suggest that HCV infection has become a predominately millennial disease, skipping a generation. These results correlate with trends seen with the opioid epidemic, which is driven by millennials. We conclude that the opioid crisis has led to a drastic demographic shift, and currently the typical HCV-infected individual is a younger male. Without interventions, this trend will continue for over seven years, plateauing near the demarcation of millennials and generation Z Disclosures All authors: No reported disclosures.

Full textAbstract:
This study examines the factors affecting millennials and generation Z’s purchase intention in online shopping. The variables under investigation, namely, impulse purchase orientation, quality orientation, brand orientation, online trust, and online purchase experience, were tested. The data collection approach used a web-based questionnaire that was created and distributed to 584 university students in Malaysia. Data were analyzed via the Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) approach to examine the posited research hypotheses. The results revealed that impulse purchase orientation was the strongest predictor of consumers’ online purchase intention in Malaysia. This is followed by online trust, and the online purchase experience and quality orientation. Meanwhile, brand orientation did not affect customers’ intention to purchase online. The results contribute new and extensive inputs into the marketing theory and expand the emergent literature on consumer intention to shop online in Malaysia, whereby rich multi-ethnic cultures should be fully exploited. Future directions are offered.

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to present a conceptual framework based on an understanding of the principles of popular mobile-enabled games, indicating how organisations in the tourism sector could meet the needs of Millennials and Generation Z through engaging with the existing gamified location-based practice of geocaching as an information and communication technology enabled gamified enhancement to the destination experience.Design/methodology/approachAs a primarily conceptual paper, the authors take an inductive qualitative approach to theory building based on the understanding of an existing practice (geocaching) that is undertaken among a community of practitioners (geocachers), which results in the presentation of a conceptual framework, which is the theory itself that the authors have constructed from the understanding of what is going on and which principles can then be applied across other tourism practices.FindingsFindings indicate that through engaging with geocaching, smaller entrepreneurial businesses even in non-urban destinations that fall outside of the remit of smart city developments, and in tourism destinations on the less technologically enabled or resource-rich side of the digital divide, can reap the benefits associated with employing the principles and practices associated with smart tourism to meet the needs of this new generation of tourism consumers who seek richer digital and often gamified tourism experiences.Originality/valueThis paper fills a gap in the literature regarding the way many different types of tourism destinations could meet the needs of Millennials and Generation Z tourists.

Full textAbstract:
The concept of «Industry 4.0», which is actively developing in Russian companies, involves the end-to-end digitalization of assets and their integration into the digital ecosystem, developing the chain of creating the actual value of a product (service). As digital ecosystems develop, marketing, including strategic marketing, is also being modernized. SMM is being transformed from «page management in social networks» to one of the main marketing tools of our time. The choice of social platforms for the company’s presence is an important moment in the formation of the SMM-strategy. Companies implementing SMM should create optimal marketing content that will strengthen relationships with consumers and ensure not only long-term and favorable communications, but also create sustainable results in the activities of companies. Today, more than 25% of the working-age population of Russia is accounted for by generation Z, which has replaced millennials, which has its own characteristics and specifics of consumer behavior. For a deeper understanding of Generation Z consumers, the authors conducted a study of the factors that influence the model of consumer behavior in the B2C market.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the predictive factors of information seeking behavior of smartphone users from the cross-generational perspective. Based on existing literature, the two most popular types of information seeking behavior of smartphone users were determined: social information seeking behavior; and functional/cognitive information seeking behavior. Design/methodology/approach A questionnaire comprising 66 questions was administered online to 216 smartphone users of three age groups according to three generations: generation X, Y (millennials) and Z. Several predictive factors were examined for each of these information seeking behavior types: generation, gender, personality traits (the Big Five), daily usage time, period of ownership, various application utilization and the level of emotional gain from smartphones. Findings There is a trade-off between the two types of information seeking behavior. Also, men exhibited significantly more functional/cognitive information seeking behavior than women, and younger generations reported significantly higher emotional gain and social information seeking behavior than older generations. Interestingly, significant differences in smartphone apps’ utilization, information seeking behavior types and their predictive factors were found among users from different generations. Extraversion was positively related to social information seeking behavior only for generations X and Y, while WhatsApp usage was one of the strongest predictive factors only for generation Z. Practical implications This research has practical implications for information system design, education, e-commerce and libraries. Originality/value This is a first study that systematically examines predictive factors of the two prominent types of information seeking behavior on smartphones from the cross-generational perspective.

The world of education has changed. Information is available anywhere and at any time. It can be daunting to understand and assess it and to distinguish a hoax from objective reality. The training of future teachers at universities needs to be changed so that a graduate from a Faculty of Education will become a professional capable of teaching others how to learn. Teachers can no longer only transmit information and evaluate how students acquire it. They should make learning meaningful and guide learners toward critical thinking. The underlying assumption is that they themselves can think critically. The aim of the study is to compare the level of critical thinking in university students between two generations of students, Generation Y (Millennials) and Generation Z (the iGeneration).

Full textAbstract:
As consumers spend more time on social media, brands can take advantage of this opportunity to better serve and communicate with their followers. Still, given the characteristics of luxury, luxury brands may be reluctant to use social media. To determine the extent to which Millennials and Generation Z consumers perceive compatibility between social media marketing and luxury brands, a purposive sampling technique was employed. We collected data from 303 Romanian visitors of the Facebook page entitled Do You Like Luxury? This page, with postings from luxury producers, was specially created and sponsored in order to raise interest in completing the questionnaires. For data analysis, we used statistical tests, including confirmatory factorial analysis, regression, and independent-samples t-test. Our research shows that, for Millennials and Generation Z, luxury brands are compatible with social media apps as marketing channels. Even in the case of inadequacy, managers can still use the facilities of digital technologies to depict exclusivity, emotions, and sensory experiences specific to luxury. Unlike other studies, which only focused on a few dimensions, we proposed a multidimensional approach of the perceived value of luxury and social media marketing. Moreover, this is one of the few studies to focus on Eastern European consumers.

Full textAbstract:
This study describes the psychographic profile and the use of media by the visitors of the Surabaya Zoo from the millennial age group, which is between 19 s.d. 40 years old. This age generation is the result of demographic bonuses for groups or generations born between the 1980s and 2000s, with characteristics that reflect the transition between the previous generation (baby boomers) and afterwards (gene Z) in terms of lifestyle and media use. This difference is partly due to a shift in communication technology that also affects their media consumption patterns. The characteristics of millennials are identified by special behavior, being protected, confident, group oriented, conventional, resistant to pressure and pursuing achievement. Surabaya Zoo which is a local tourism destination that is officially managed by the Surabaya City Government is required to contribute to the local revenue of the City of Surabaya. The breakthrough that has been done targeting the Millennial generation that tends to be individually oriented is to provide a Selfie park and offer activities that attract the interest of visitors. This program has increased the number of KBS visitors from year to year. By employing survey methods and measuring VALS (Values And Life Style) and frequency of media use by respondents, the results obtained that the psychographic profile of KBS visitors can be categorized tend to be Principle Oriented, whose lifestyle is characterized by: having spiritual values, not thinking about prestige, like learning something new, have a traditional mindset, and do a fixed routine for a long time. With this profile, the main expectation of millennial for the availability of information at the Surabaya Zoo is information about animals, instead of the need for selfies.Keywords: psychographic profile, millennial, media use

Firstly, the motive behind this research is to know about the factors that lead to Job Satisfaction; secondly, the most authoritative factor of Job Satisfaction; thirdly, to find out which generation is the most satisfied with their current job across different generations of people. The study provides a descriptive and comparative analysis of working professionals from all domains, industries, gender, age, and sectors across India selected based on random sampling using quantitative research methods. It aims to analyze the results on SPSS based on a survey in a close-ended and Likert-scale based questionnaire. Baby boomers are the most satisfied with their job. Generation X is satisfied but lesser than Baby Boomers. Generation Y and Generation Z are not satisfied. Still, Millennials are more satisfied than Generation Z. Their dominant factor for job satisfaction is Job Security, Work Culture, Equality, and Career Growth Opportunities. Not much research has been done on Gen Z by researchers, as they are young and will be entering the market. This study focuses on Gen Z. The findings will help analyze people of different ages to their work and participation levels. The HR could formulate their policies and practices according to the findings generated, which will help reshape their reward structure, decide how they can manage talent, control bad attrition, and a basis for further research, if anyone wants to study particularly about one factor.

Abstract. For those of us born before the 90s, we may often see millennials or Z generations or alpha generations as a group of young people who are less concerned about the environment, absorb themselves because they are too busy with devices and so on. Maybe this is true, because those who were born after the 1990s from childhood have become accustomed to PCs, laptops or devices owned by parents, so the devices have become an extension of their hands. This is certainly not healthy, but also a challenge for us: how to convey the truth of the Good News and especially to be salt and light to that generation? Through this article the author wants to convey how to teach the truth to millennials so that our generation is not lost from contact with them over the times.Abstrak. Bagi kita yang dilahirkan sebelum tahun 90an, mungkin sering melihat generasi milenial atau generasi Z atau generasi alpha sebagai sekumpulan anak-anak muda yang kurang peduli lingkungan, asyik sendiri karena terlalu sibuk dengan gawai dst. Mungkin hal tersebut ada benarnya, karena mereka yang lahir setelah tahun 1990an dari kecil sudah terbiasa dengan PC, laptop atau gawai milik orangtua, sehingga gawai telah menjadi kepanjangan tangan mereka. Ini tentu tidak sehat, namun juga suatu tantangan bagi kita: bagaimana menyampaikan kebenaran Kabar Baik dan terutama menjadi garam dan terang kepada generasi tersebut? Melalui artikel ini penulis ingin menyampaikan bagaimana mengajarkan kebenaran kepada generasi milenial sehingga generasi kita tidak terhilang seiring perkembangan zaman.

AbstractBackground: Research in business ethics shows that individual differences can influence one’s ethical behaviour. In addition, variability in attitudes towards ethical issues among different generations is emphasized. Still, results are inconclusive and call for an additional examination of possible generational differences with regard to ethics and ethical values.Objectives: Our objective is to test if the perception of the importance of business ethics, attitudes towards ethical issues and aspects influencing ethical behaviour, differ among the four generations currently present in the workforce.Methods/Approach: Theoretical implications are empirically tested on a sample of 107 individuals, members of Baby Boomers, Generation X, Millennials and Generation Z.Results: In general, the results indicate that there are little or no generational differences related to the analysed aspects of business ethics. The significant difference is present only in the importance given to factors that influence ethical decision-making: (i) formal rules and procedures, (ii) performance management system and (iii) job pressures, between the members of Generation Z and older generations.Conclusions: In spite of employee diversity, ethics continues to present an important aspect of the business environment. Thus, organizations need to be oriented towards creating ethical leaders and a positive ethical climate that ensures that ethical values and behaviours are present throughout the organization.

In recent years, numerous researches and studies confirm differences between Generations in their values, attitudes, or characteristics. However, the challenge is to get to know the Generation Z, whose individuals are currently entering the labor market for research and practical application. The presented paper aims to expand the knowledge of Generations Y and Z in the field of individualism and self-reliance. This issue is examined concerning independence regarding housing and financial independence to parental help. The aim of the study is an empirical verification of possible similarities and differences between Generations Y and Z. The study is based on an online questionnaire survey. Data were obtained from more than 1,500 respondents of these Generations (born in 1982–2005) in 5 European countries (Czech Republic, Denmark, the Netherlands, Poland, and Slovakia). Data are examined using a two-tailed t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, and regression analysis. The overall findings of the study indicate intergenerational differences in the issue of independence, with Generation Z, unlike Millennials, becoming more self-sufficient at a younger age. Research has also found that women leave the parental household earlier than men. The paper presents the possible influence of the outputs on the working environment and work motivation of the Generations Y and Z. AcknowledgmentThe paper was created with the support of the project SGS-2020-015 “Research in selected areas of management and marketing of organisations in the context of demographic and technological changes.”

The rapid emergence of automation brings new opportunities for airport development. Airports strive to maximize passenger satisfaction as well as optimize their operation. However, the lack of knowledge of consumer preferences might be an important barrier to achieve these objectives. Therefore, our study aims to unveil the potential of service development alternatives based on artificial intelligence (AI). For this, a systematic literature review (SLR) and a quantitative analysis of a survey have been conducted. The results of the empirical research are based on 593 responses; most of the subjects belong to generation Z (digital natives) and Y (millennials). The analysis revealed attitudes towards different AI-based transport solutions and AI robots that provide information at the airports. Based on the perceived attractiveness of such services, the environmentally conscious behaviour of consumers, and sociodemographic data, subjects were classified into three different clusters (Negligents, AV Enthusiasts, and Robot Fanatics). Results proved the attractiveness of AI-based transport services that can be used in the air-side zone. Among the millennials, the idea of self-driving buses running between airport terminals is the most appealing. Greater interest in AI-based communication solutions can be perceived among generation Z. For both generations, environmentally conscious consumption is also of paramount importance. The attractiveness of AI-based solutions has been analyzed in a tourist environment, which might be a good starting point for further research into the technology acceptance of AI-based services.

Full textAbstract:
Generation Z falls into the internet generation because it is the first generation born after the popularisation of the internet. Even though scientists don’t agree on when this generation starts and when it ends, after all, it is believed that the generation Z is made of people that are born in the nineties until today. Their parents belong to the millennial generation that is born in the eighties. Generation Z is the first generation that was raised as a part of the trend of being in the publics' eye, always posting about their lives on social networks. This potentially makes them an egocentric generation and a generation that does not have enough empathy. Although empathy is one of the key characteristics for happiness, generation Z finds happiness in their personal appearance and they care a lot about the opinions of others, that is, they care about the number of likes and the number of followers on social networks. Even though empathy is a key trait of happiness, generation Z finds happiness in physical appearance, and in others' opinion, that is they care about how many likes and how many followers on social networks they have. The purpose of this paper is to examine emotional empathy with the generation that is born in the late nineties, until generations 2006-2007, on a sample of 200 primary and high school students with an assumption that later generations are more empathic and that there is a difference between male and female subjects, that is that females are more empathic. Also, the paper provides case reports that represent the clinical population and not the average representatives of this generation and whose psychological problems may be associated with excessive use of the Internet and social networks. The results of the research indicate that the feeling of insecurity and lack of empathy in this generation is a risk factor for the development of low self-esteem and self-confidence, and ultimately more severe mental disorders, which can be reduced and prevented by a different approach to this generation.

Purpose For wine consumers, the country-of-origin effect still exerts significant influence, even though probably differently from what it was earlier, especially for newer consumer segments. Among these, millennials represent the most interesting segment of the present and future, even though studies on millennials’ behaviour are insidious and newer consumer segments are emerging (Generation Z). The paper aims to discuss this issue. Design/methodology/approach This study focusses on this parameter through a comparative analysis of French and Italian wines – first, on the country-of-origin effect on millennials’ wine preferences, and second, on the possibility of managing this influence by adopting a wine marketing mix based on the innovative 4Es model. Findings The outcomes of the experiment on 121 millennials, despite the limitations of the study, highlight interesting changes – compared with the wine consumption behaviours of the past – regarding the country-of-origin effect and the possibility of managing it. Originality/value The results confirm, similar to the literature on the 4Es model, the possibility of wide areas of action for wine educational marketing initiatives that can change or enhance the country-of-origin perception.

The purpose of this research is to define the level of significance for various indicators that influence the degree of consumer satisfaction regarding the use of FinTech technologies and services. The most important factors that influence the level of satisfaction when using FinTech services were considered: comfort and ease of use, legal regulations, ease of account opening, mobile payments features, crowdfunding options, international money transfers features, reduced costs associated with transactions, peer-to-peer lending, insurances options, online brokerage, cryptocoins options and exchange options. The study was conducted on a sample of 162 respondents, persons belonging to the Millennials and Generation Z generations. The values of the indicators for different categories of users of FinTech services and different categories of generations can be determined based on the statistical tests performed and the results obtained from the regression analysis. The values of the indicators are the basic elements for determining the regression model that will help the FinTech service vendors to make personalized decisions for each category of users so that the level of customer satisfaction is maximized. The study carried out within the present article is the first of its kind for Romania, because up to this moment in the specialized literature there are no such studies for Eastern Europe. The research we conducted aims to fill the gap existing in the literature and responds to the expectations and needs of stakeholders in the FinTechs’ business area. The results of the article are relevant to both stakeholders and the scientific community that is concerned about the impact of FinTech technologies.

Purpose: The goal of this study is to test and examine the effect of organizational support on employee engagement and OCB; the impact of career development on employee engagement and OCB; as well as the impact of employee engagement on OCB. The survey was carried out on Indonesia's 200 Sharia Banking Generation Z employees. Design/methodology/approach: All Generation Z employees working as the population in Islamic banking companies in Indonesia use the questionnaire and interviews to collect data. The purposeful sampling was used in this study where the researcher understood that it was possible to gather the appropriate information from a particular population that was able to provide the information requested and that the predetermined criteria had been fulfilled. Since the population is too large, this method was chosen. 200 samples consist of the sample number. In this analysis, SEM is the method used to process information (Structural Equation Model) Findings: The organizational support variable is shown to be capable of influencing employee engagement, which means that the better organizational support offered by the company would also increase the greater engagement of Generation Z employees in Sharia banking. Variables in work growth can affect employee engagement, meaning that the greater company's career development, the greater employee's engagement. Organizational support has been shown to affect OCB, which shows that the better organizational support of the corporation, the greater organizational citizenship behavior of the employee. It is seen that career development is capable of impacting OCB, which means that the greater employee's additional position operation will bring a stronger implementation of career development. The employee engagement variable has also proven to be able to influence OCB, which means that the greater employee engagement, the greater additional role of Generation Z employees in Islamic banking. Research limitations/implications: Limitations in this study include the nature of open-ended questions which are less understood by respondents, so that many respondents responded with inappropriate answers and some others were not filled in causing the lack of information obtained about the actual situation in current Islamic banking. With this limitation, it is hoped that further scientific research will be considered and made to obtain better research results. Practical implications: The organization would concentrate more on progress in the career development system, taking into account, among other considerations, other variables. Organizations could try to shape their identities as responsible corporate or global citizens by taking a leadership position in sustainable business practices and demonstrating to millennials that OCB is an important way to meet their service needs. The millennial workers would welcome these events, which would encourage them to take on additional duties by assisting other colleagues. Such efforts will be necessary in the twenty-first century to build an effective workforce. Originality/value: It has been shown that employee engagement as an intervening variable can mediate the impact on organizational citizenship behavior between organizational support and career growth, although calculations show that the direct effect of independent variables (organizational support and career development) on OCB is greater than that through employee engagement variable (indirect influence).

CPA Baby Boomers, Generation X, Generation Y or Millennials and the latest addition, Generation Z, possess unique characteristics, workplace values and ethics. This study focused on how workplace values and ethical considerations directly and indirectly affect the values of CPAs. The participants are five hundred forty-one (n=541) Baby Boomers, Generation X, Generation Y and Generation Z Filipino professional accountants among four different sectors namely the academe or education, commerce & industry, government and public practice. A partial least square-structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) including mediation and moderation analysis were used to determine the direct and indirect effects. Using Schwartz motivational values, the study revealed that there is a positive and significant relationship between self-transcendence (benevolence and universalism) and openness to change (self-direction and stimulation) as workplace values to the values of practicing CPAs. There is a negative but significant relationship between workplace values of conservation (tradition and security) and self-enhancement values (power and achievement) with the CPA values. Also, workplace values significantly affect ethical considerations, while ethical considerations (or strict adherence to CPA’s code of ethics) significantly influence the CPA values while in practice. Lastly, the moderation analysis further revealed that workforce generation has moderating effect on the relationship between conservation values and the actual practice values. Ethical considerations have no mediating effect on the significant positive relationship between individual values and values in practice (benevolence and universalism), while workforce generations have moderating effect in the conservation values of CPAs

Full textAbstract:
The cohort of young people born with or after the Internet has been dubbed Generation Z (Gen Z, or post-millennials). They are now entering the higher education-to-work transition phase, although this is yet to be studied. Previous studies have found that work values and work preferences vary across generations and national cultures, justifying regular and localised examination. However, very little is known to date about the work values of Portuguese Gen Zs. In this study, we describe the work values of Portuguese university students in the higher education-to-work transition phase and examine their influence on salient work-related preferences. We surveyed over 3000 students attending university degrees from eight main Portuguese universities. We find that Portuguese Gen Zs value social values above all, followed by intrinsic and then extrinsic work values, potentially configuring a unique profile. Work values partially explain work preferences such as employer size and salary expectations. Gender differences mark our results, with women expressing higher work values in all three dimensions and lower entry salary expectations. These results can be useful for employers seeking to attract the best university graduates, facilitate their integration and promote their development.

Purpose The proliferation of social commerce websites has allowed consumers to share and exchange information, experiences, advice and opinions. Recently, information provided by users has been considered more trustworthy than the information shared by companies. However, the way in which users interact with technology can vary with age, and generational cohorts show different shopping behaviors, interests and attitudes. Hence, the way users process information (user-generated vs company-generated) can affect trust differently. Drawing on the trust transfer theory and the generational cohort theory, the purpose of this paper is to analyze the effects on user- and company-generated information in boosting trust of three different cohorts (Generation X, Y and Z). Design/methodology/approach The data were collected through an online survey. The sample comprised 715 users of social commerce websites, aged between 16 and 55 years old. The study was analyzed using partial least squares with the statistical software Smart PLS 3. Findings The empirical results show that generational cohorts show different patterns. Generation X transfers trust to social commerce websites mainly from trust in information generated by companies, while Generation Z transfers trust mainly from information generated by users. Finally, Generation Y, in contrast to previous findings about millennials, develops trust based on company-generated information to an even greater extent than does Generation X. Originality/value The originality of this study lies in its analysis of generational differences when it comes to trusting one type of information over another. This study contributes to the idea that users cannot be considered as a whole but must be segmented into generational cohorts.

Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) are powerful tools in an extremely unstable and turbulent world, being a vital weapon in an era of electronic communication, full of unpredictability and entropy. Portugal is Europe's leader in consumption of fish and ranks third in the world. It is with this historical, economic and food galaxy interpretation of the world that we have decided to study the fish consumption supply chain in Portugal, distributing and analyzing 2 different surveys on purchase and consumption behaviors. 1393 respondents participated in surveys, one survey being for the general of the population and another one specifically for generations Y and Z. Being ICTs so vital to young people and being generation Y and Z the future in consumption, we have focused our study on how to build a support for the coming generations. To do that we have design communication strategies for fishing sector, including point-of-sale communication, underlining the issue of shopping experience, which in the case of young consumers is, very closely linked to ICT, based on creating sustained value for society underpinned by a relation of cooperation and proximity. Following Toffler's permanent adaptation survival rule, it is vital to the food supply chain (in our case, fish) to rapidly understand that the future of consumption is in the hands of the "Z/Post-Millennials" generation, meaning that product, place, price and promotion have been replaced by Ettenson's Solutions, Access, Value and Education.

This article analyzes the main factors of anthropological crisis, its attributes, impact upon the worldview, psychological, and cultural characteristics of the modern global network generation of Millennials and Centennials. An overview is given to the sources, in which the authors raise the problems of personal crisis, its causes, as well as the prospects for further development of humanity. Analysis is conducted on key traits in communication of collective society, peculiarities of behavioral communication strategy in the conditions of Informatization of the society. The article provides the results of modern research of R. Jenkins and the agency PBN H+K jointly with Magram MR, as well as “Tomsk initiative” project on the representatives of Millennials – “generation Y” and Centennials – “generation Z”; comparative characteristics of their value orientations and life strategies is given. The current formation and development of the new cultural space with the specific features of global, universal, technologized, virtual nature is demonstrated. The role of Net-technologies is revealed; being the key factor of the transformation of modern space, change the forms of sociocultural interaction, production techniques, transformation and conveyance of information, require elaboration of the special forms of spiritual and practical mastering of the reality and self-reflection of the individuals. An assumption is made that due to the technologies of globalization and ideology of postmodernism, takes place the uniformity of social and political structures, destruction of the forms of human identification – cultural, historical and spiritual, as well as destruction of the worldview foundations of personal becoming. Deidentification of a person becomes the key reason of the anthropological crisis.
