Exploring the Level of Happiness among Generation X, Generation Y, and Generation Z

Abstract This cross-sectional study investigates the levels of happiness among Generation X, Generation Y, and Generation Z, focusing primarily on Generation X (born between 1965 and 1980), Generation Y (born between 1981 and 1996), and Generation Z (born from 1997 onward). The study encompasses both male and female participants, with a total sample size of 388 individuals. Of these, 196 participants belong to Generation Z, 158 to Generation Y, and 34 to Generation X. Statistical analysis was conducted using One-Way ANOVA, revealing a statistically significant difference in happiness scores among the three generational groups, F(2, 385) = 26.805, p < .001. Post hoc comparisons utilizing Tukey's Honestly Significant Difference (HSD) test indicated significant variations in happiness scores between Generation X and both Generation Z (mean difference = -0.744, p < .001) and Generation Y (mean difference = -0.661, p < .001). However, there was no statistically significant difference in happiness scores between Generation Z and Generation Y (p = .329). These findings suggest that Generation X reports significantly higher levels of happiness compared to both Generation Z and Generation Y. Conversely, Generation Z and Generation Y did not differ significantly in their reported happiness levels. The implications of these generational differences in happiness underscore the importance of understanding and addressing varying factors that contribute to well-being across different age cohorts. The study contributes to the existing literature on generational happiness by highlighting distinct patterns across Generation X, Generation Y, and Generation Z. It provides insights into how socio-cultural and economic factors, shaped by historical contexts and technological advancements, may influence subjective well-being among different generations. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for developing targeted interventions and policies aimed at promoting happiness and mental well-being across diverse generational groups. Future research could delve deeper into exploring the specific factors underlying these happiness disparities, such as economic stability, social relationships, and technological adaptation, to provide more nuanced insights into generational happiness trends. Additionally, longitudinal studies could track changes in happiness levels within each generation over time, offering valuable insights into the evolving nature of happiness across the lifespan and across different societal contexts.
