The popular and academic press reports recent and future major decreases in accounting enrollment to the detriment to accounting faculty and the firms that hire our students. Based upon a major review of the literature and our own experiences, we discuss this matter in depth and suggest means to reverse these trends. For example, we suggest that the CPA profession stress that (1) while earning lower starting salaries, experienced accountants often earn significantly higher salaries than other business majors; and (2) accountants can more likely own equity in their employers’ businesses as compared to other, competitive business fields.
We also discuss how the (1) Generation gap’s (e.g., members of Generations X and Z) viewpoints compare to baby boomers; (2) major trends in the gig economy affect this shortage; (3) some affects of technology; and (4) need for personal growth affects this shortage—and how the profession can capitalize on these trends.
Our paper should help academe and the profession spur quality students to major in accounting and help improve the latter group attract and retain new accounting majors. After all, new, competent accounting majors form the basis for our future, if not our survival.
While left and right are the main terms to distinguish political views in Western Europe, the family socialization of citizens has mainly been studied in terms of partisan preferences rather than ...identification with these ideological blocks. Therefore, this study investigates the intergenerational transmission of left‐right ideological positions in two European multiparty systems. To investigate expectations regarding gendered patterns in political socialization, ideological transmission between mothers, fathers, daughters and sons are analyzed, making use of German and Swiss household data. The results underline the relevance of the family in the transmission of political ideology in multiparty systems, showing high contemporary parent–child concordance in ideological positioning in line with classic work in political socialization. Moreover, the study demonstrates how the gender‐generation gap in political ideology is consequential for this process. Young women consistently place themselves on the left of men across all combinations of parental ideology, which indicates that the gender‐generation gap trumps other gendered patterns in intergenerational transmission. Consequently, daughters are less likely than sons to take over their parents’ rightist positions, while parent–son transmission is equally large on the left and the right. This also means that left‐leaning parents have a general advantage over right‐leaning parents in having their ideological identification reproduced by their daughters. The study highlights the importance of differentiating between the transmission of left‐ and right‐wing ideology in political socialization processes. Moreover, it demonstrates that the distinction by offspring gender is imperative when studying the intergenerational transmission of traits that display gender differences within and between parental and offspring generations. The findings point at the active role of especially female offspring in the political socialization process, as they seem to be more strongly impacted by influences outside the family that sustain generational processes of further gender realignment.

Introduction: The phenomenon of generation gap between parents and children, as yesterday's generation and today's generation in recent decades, has become one of the most important issues in the ...field of family pathology. The aim of this study was to study the relationship between generation gap and social damages among adolescents in Tehran. Method: This research is descriptive-analytical and quantitative in terms of methodology and survey type, considering cross-sectional time criterion. The statistical population consisted of families with 10-19 years old children in Tehran who were selected by multi-stage cluster sampling in the nine-month period in proportion to the families living in districts 2, 9, and 16 using Cochran formula. The instrument was a researcher-made questionnaire, and to determine its validity, face validity method was used to calculate the validity of Cronbach's alpha method, and SPSS and Lisrel software were used to analyze the data. Findings: The results of the research indicated that generation gap has a significant and direct relationship with the incidence of social damages among adolescents in Tehran. Also, generation gap has a significant and direct relationship with aggression, theft, dropout, suicide, drug use and running away from home. Discussion: Social issues are the product of the disrupted process of socialism and its reproduction in families and society, the lack of management of the gap between generations on the one hand is an alarm for the collapse of the family system, which has a special place in the Islamic religion and Iranian culture, and on the other hand, this gap along with the occurrence of social damages will be one of the main obstacles on the way of the social development of the country.
Social media provide novel opportunities for street gangs to operate beyond their traditional borders to sell drugs, recruit members and control their territory, virtually and physically. Although ...social media have contributed to the means available to street gangs today, it does not mean that every gang agrees on their use. Drawing on different perspectives (ex-gang members, law enforcement) on gangs using a multi-method design in a London borough, the current study shows that social media have polarized gangs, resulting in two distinct types of digital adaptation. The proposed division of ‘digitalist’ and ‘traditionalist’ gangs is rooted in Thrasher’s (1927) dictum that no two gangs are alike and explains how some gangs prefer to keep a low profile, thus, avoiding social media use. ‘Digitalists’, by contrast, prefer to use social media as a way to gain reputation and territorial expansion. They use it to brand themselves and to appear attractive for recruits and customers alike. These differences can be theoretically explained firstly as a generational gap, meaning that younger gang members prefer the use of social media; and secondly, by how well established a gang already is, as newer gangs need more attention to establish themselves.
•An empirical study on how social media have affected gangs, from the perspective of five distinct types of participants.•Digital technology divided gangs into ‘traditionalists’ who consciously abstain and ‘digitalists’ who fully engage.•Gang evolution matters: While established gangs choose aA a ‘traditionalist’ approach, newer gangs become ‘digitalists’.•Generation gap matters: Established older members gain less from social media attention than younger counterparts.•Younger members are more at home in the digital world than older gang members.
The aim of this article is to characterise Russian youth living in a country which has been at war with neighbouring Ukraine since 24 February 2022. Considering the difficulty of directly reaching ...the target group, a non-invasive research method was applied, namely, secondary data analysis. The analyses included representative survey studies conducted among the Russian society by the main research centres: Levada-Center, VCIOM, Russian Field. Based on the conducted analyses, it may be asserted that in terms of religion, attitudes towards sexual minorities, views on the West, using the Internet for obtaining information, and mental health, Russian youth are significantly different from the older generation, and their attitudes align with global trends set by the iGen. Positive evaluations of Putin’s rule and the country’s situation, support for Russia’s involvement in the war in Ukraine, and negative attitudes towards Ukrainians are almost identical to those of the older generation. Russian youth adopt a conformist strategy towards the system, and will continue the direction of the country’s development in line with government directives.
In China, involution, which means pressure to out-compete other group members, has attracted public attention on Weibo. The new online connotation of involution empowered group cohesion among youth. ...Dissimilar to other crises, this crise also closely relates to group cohesion concept. However, few previous group cohesion-related studies focus on this critical concept. This study explains why and how youth created group cohesion online when facing involution. First, by examining the relationship between involution and group cohesion. Second, by examining whether youth are united in the online discussion of involution by investigating the generational gap. Following this, this study analyzes the different opinions to identify why this group cohesion occurs, how youth think about involution, and why they regard "older adults" as others. Lastly, this study analyzes how youth use hashtags to attract more youth to voice their opinions, consequently leading to greater group cohesion.
By combining frontier computational methods with causation and axial coding, this study proposes a new way to in-depth analyze group cohesion on social media.
The results indicate that involution triggers poor online group cohesion, and online involution-related hot issues trigger identity-based group cohesion. Additionally, youth are significantly more negative than older adults, and their expressions are full of identity-based construction. By stressing the social roots and blaming the "other" (older adult group), youth united together online. These findings indicated that a generation gap does indeed exist and that youth unite on social media by posting related hashtags via "revealing social identity" and "positioning and becoming" strategies.
The findings stress that involution is related to poor group cohesion and that social media offers a new way to face the involution crisis. Youth will use hashtags to unite and blame imagined enemies, such as older adults and the upper class. These findings might assist in understanding interventions that lead to more group cohesion.
•Three types of online video platform engagement are comprehensively investigated.•Social capital was only significant mediator for “sharing” engagement in online video platforms.•Perceived social ...capital of online video platforms was significant mediator for sharing engagement only for the Generation X and not for the Millennials.•Social values of the online video platforms might not be as important to the Millennials’ sharing video contents.
User engagements in video platforms are considered critical for not only businesses in measuring attention, but also for understanding social, cultural dynamics of a form of information platform that has increasingly become influential. For instance, different generations may perceive and engage in online video platforms differently. This study investigates various factors influencing online video platform user engagements in the forms of showing empathy (e.g., “like”), commenting, and sharing. In addition to traditional motivational factors informed by the uses and gratification theory, the study explores how perception of video platforms as social platforms play a mediating role and whether such effects are moderated by generation. A moderated mediation model positing mediating role of social capital and moderating role of generational difference tested against the three types of engagement. Results indicate intriguing generational effect between the Generation X and the Millennials on social capital’s role in online video platform engagement.
