Birth Cohort or Generational Effects
• Different generations can have unique
experiences
– Your generation grew up with computers
– 100 years ago people didn’t have radio
– Your grand parents and/or great-grandparents may
have lived through World War Two or the 1930s Great
Depression
• When (and where) you were born could affect
nutrition, sleeping arrangements, or your age at
marriage
• In cross-sectional studies or “one-shot”, cohort
and aging effects may become entangled
