Responses were garnered from 10,273 people, including 6,247 Gen Z individuals between 18 and 24 years old. Individuals from four other generations were also surveyed: 1,229 millennials (25–40 years old), 1,300 Gen Xers (41–56 years old), 1,391 baby boomers (57–75 years old), and 106 from the Silent Generation (76–93 years old).</p> <p>This consumer insights survey focused on how respondents—mainly Gen Z—were feeling at a point in time (winter/spring 2022). It will be the work of our future research to identify which sentiments are more closely related to developmental stage (that is, adolescence) and evolve as Gen Z ages versus those that are specific to their generation (that is, individuals born in 1997 through 2012). The survey was based on a representative sample of individuals who have access to the internet.</p></div></div></div></div></div></div> <p>The personal, professional, and educational networks serving Gen Z in Europe can benefit from a better understanding of specific challenges facing this generation.
