From cell phones and texting to religion and manners, nearly eight in 10 people believe there is a major difference in the point of view of younger and older Americans, according to a study released earlier this year. This is the highest spread since 1969, when about 74 percent reported generational clashes over the Vietnam War and equal rights for women and minorities. In contrast, just 60 percent in 1979 saw a generation gap. The study by the Pew Research Center found Americans of different ages increasingly at odds over a range of issues.
The first step in bridging the divide rather than falling into it is awareness. I’ve created this short quiz to test your Generational IQ — do you know the difference between a Gen Y and Baby Boomer? Who are the two generations that get along the best? Test your Generational IQ now.
