ABSTRACT

This study was conducted to examine the generational differences and similarities in regard to value orientations and the perception of adolescents' daily behaviors. A total of 1,067 participants (464 adolescents, 465 adults, and 138 older adults) took part in this study. The results exhibited both similarities and differences across the generations. First, although young people valued marriage and family not as highly as older people did, young as well as older people put greater significance on domestic peace relative to others. Second, parents and grandparents were more likely to rate adolescents' behaviors such as chatting on the internet all night as problematic than adolescents would. However, all the generations unanimously considered adolescents' adult-ignoring behaviors to be the most problematic. The implications of these results were discussed.
