Digital Divide: Comparing the Impact of Mobile Phone Usage on Generation Y and Generation Z

Author(s) ANSARI SAIMA

Abstract This study investigates the distinct effects of mobile phone usage on the Y (Millennials) and Z (Zoomers) generational cohorts, focussing on the social, psychological, and cognitive consequences. This study uses a mixed-methods approach, including surveys, interviews, and a literature review, to investigate how mobile phones affect communication habits, mental health, academic achievement, and social relationships across different generations. The findings show that, while both generations are heavily involved with mobile technology, Generation Z (Zoomers) rely more on mobile devices, which has a higher impact on attention span and social anxiety. Generation Y (Millennials), having spent their early years without mobile phones, has a more balanced integration of mobile technology into their lives.
