In 2023, the disposable income of a household led by a Millennial in the United States was 97,866 U.S. dollars per year. Households led by someone born in Generation X, however, had a disposable income of around 113,886 U.S. dollars in 2023.

The data set accompanies the study "Understanding Generation Z's Awareness of Clean Beauty: The Role of Sustainability, Ethicality, and Safety." The research investigated how three key attributes of the clean beauty movement, safety (non-toxic ingredients), ethicality (cruelty-free practices), and sustainability (eco-conscious packaging, influence the purchase intentions of Generation Z consumers. The dat set provides responses from 195 Gen Z individuals (145 women, 50 men) collected through the Clean Beauty Awareness Questionnaire (CBAQ), a measure specifically developed by the authors for this study. The CBAQ assesses respondents' perceptions, attitudes, and purchase intentions regarding clean beauty products. The data set contains 1. Raw data file (sheet 1 of .xlsx) containing participant responses 2. Codebook/documentation (sheet 2 of .xlsx) containing the codes of categorical variables 3. Questionnaire items (sheet 3 of .xlsx) (CBAQ) as used in the study.

Context

Birds Aren't Real (r/BirdsArentReal), is the official subreddit for the "most woke among us". It is described as "a safe haven for believers to gather, support one another in these times of adversity, and share images and stories that propel the cause forward. The birds work for the bourgeoisie".

A bit of context here: a significant number of members of Generation Z actively propagate (as a joke or seriously) the myth that birds doesn't exist anymore, because were gradually replaced by Government with drones.

The movement took a certain momentum recently, here is a selection of articles documenting this strange phenomena: * Birds Aren’t Real, or Are They? Inside a Gen Z Conspiracy Theory
* ‘Birds Aren’t Real’: How A Parody Conspiracy Movement Fought ‘misinformation With Lunacy’

In the past, a generation covered a larger span of time, having more members. However, today, thanks to the developments in technology and many other factors generations change frequently having less members and covering a few years. What matters now is the workforce itself and how these different generations work together. The current workforce has 3 generations working together while waiting for the fourth one. Soon, it is inevitable that 5 or 6 generations will be working at the same workplace. As a result, it is crucial to understand the type of leadership a generation prefers in business and academic life. The aim of this study was to find out how leadership style choice differs among four generations (Baby Boomers, Generations X, Generation Y, and Generation Z) of academics and prospective academics in Turkey. In the study, 265 participants from different generation rated the leadership attributes that contribute or impede effective leadership. The Global Leadership and Organizational Behavior Effectiveness (GLOBE) Project research survey by House et al. (2004) was used to find out the leadership style choice of different generations. The statistical relationships were determined between the generation variable and the 16 primary leadership subscales through MANOVAs and ANOVAs. The results of the tests showed that significant differences exist among the four different generations in 3 of the 16 leadership subscales. These subscales are Charismatic 3: Self-sacrifice, Conflict-inducer, and Face saver.

As of April 2024, around 16.5 percent of global active Instagram users were men between the ages of 18 and 24 years. More than half of the global Instagram population worldwide was aged 34 years or younger.

              Teens and social media

              As one of the biggest social networks worldwide, Instagram is especially popular with teenagers. As of fall 2020, the photo-sharing app ranked third in terms of preferred social network among teenagers in the United States, second to Snapchat and TikTok. Instagram was one of the most influential advertising channels among female Gen Z users when making purchasing decisions. Teens report feeling more confident, popular, and better about themselves when using social media, and less lonely, depressed and anxious.
              Social media can have negative effects on teens, which is also much more pronounced on those with low emotional well-being. It was found that 35 percent of teenagers with low social-emotional well-being reported to have experienced cyber bullying when using social media, while in comparison only five percent of teenagers with high social-emotional well-being stated the same. As such, social media can have a big impact on already fragile states of mind.

This dataset was generated as part of Study 1 within a PhD research project exploring the effectiveness of communication formats in nation branding, using Saudi Arabia as a case study. The study employed a mixed-methods online questionnaire to explore public awareness, perceptions, and associations with Saudi Arabia’s brand image among a general audience.Data were collected between 21 May 2021 and 10 July 2021 via an online questionnaire hosted on www.onlinesurveys.ac.uk (Jisc Online Surveys). A total of 550 responses were obtained through non-probability snowball sampling. Participants included Saudis, non-Saudis, members of Generation Z, and older generations.The dataset includes:Excel Sheets: Raw Data, qualitative responses to open-ended questions, quantitative responses to closed-ended questions, and a coded version prepared for SPSS.SPSS File: Cleaned and labelled quantitative data (categorical and scaled responses).PDF: A copy of the original questionnaire used during data collection.Further methodological details and data interpretation are reported in Chapter 4 of the associated PhD thesis: “The Effectiveness of Communication Formats within Nation Branding: A Case Study of Saudi Arabia as a Global Tourism Destination”.

Beauty and wellness are terms used often in common parlance, however their meaning and relation to each other is unclear. To probe their meaning, we applied network science methods to estimate and compare the semantic networks associated with beauty and wellness in different age generation cohorts (Generation Z, Millennials, Generation X, and Baby Boomers) and in women and men. These mappings were achieved by estimating group-based semantic networks from free association responses to a list of 47 words, either related to Beauty, Wellness, or Beauty + Wellness. Beauty was consistently related to Elegance, Feminine, Gorgeous, Lovely, Sexy, and Stylish. Wellness was consistently related Aerobics, Fitness, Health, Holistic, Lifestyle, Medical, Nutrition, and Thrive. In addition, older cohorts had semantic networks that were less connected and more segregated from each other. Finally, we found that women compared to men had more segregated and organized concepts of Beauty and Wellness. In contemporary societies that are pre-occupied by the pursuit of beauty and a healthy lifestyle, our findings shed novel light on how people think about beauty and wellness and how they are related across different age generations and by sex.
