The Impact of the Generational Conflict Phenomenon on Family Cohesion

Abstract

The study aims to explore the generation gap between parents and children and its impact on family cohesion in the context of modern digital society, focusing on the Jordanian family as a model. The study followed an analytical descriptive approach to examine topics and patterns related to technology use and family relationships. The potential steps include developing assessments or surveys to explore specific topics and patterns further, designing interventions or programs to support families, and conducting additional research to investigate the nuances in technology use and family relationships. The study reveals several key findings, including a strong correlation between conflicts and disagreements over technology use, as well as the impact of technology on family relationships. The results also highlight the importance of parental involvement and control, as well as the need for resources and support in managing technology-related conflicts.
