And among young adults ages 18 to 22, while 62 of Gen Zers were employed in 2018, higher shares of Millennials (71) and Gen Xers (79) were working when they were a comparable age. “They are going into a whole new world where we’re not labelling as much - we’re not saying ‘they’re female and they’re male’, ‘they’re black and they’re white’, ‘they’re gay and they’re not’… it’s becoming more of an open society.” Only 18 of Gen Z teens (ages 15 to 17) were employed in 2018, compared with 27 of Millennial teens in 2002 and 41 of Gen Xers in 1986. She also thinks this might be a generation where these labels start to lose some of their usefulness, adding: Whilst not specialising in this group, Dr Abramson predicts they’ll be family-oriented (as their parents will be Gen X and millennials, who she says are very engaged as parents) and more digitally savvy than any generation that comes before them. This generation is often referred to as the middle. The term Generation X was popularized by the 1991 book Generation X: Tales for an Accelerated Culture, by Douglas Coupland. People who belong in Generation X include Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Aniston, and Adam Sandler. They are young (the first will have been born in 2010) but they will eventually become a very large cohort in their own right. Generation X was born between the early 1960s and the early 1980s. When we have the data to study groups of similarly aged people over time, we won’t always default to using the standard generational definitions and labels, like Gen Z, Millennials or Baby Boomers. America and the Baby Boom Generation, author Landon Jones asserts that the birth years of individuals in the baby boomer generation fall between 19.
And soon, new kids will be on the scene: the next generation has been dubbed Generation Alpha by social researcher Mark McCrindle. How Pew Research Center will report on generations moving forward. The term Millennials generally refers to the generation of people born between the early 1980s and 1990s, according to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary.
