We Can Generalize
Generation Y (18-28)
Generation X (29-40)
Trailing Boomers (41-50)
Leading Boomers (51-59)
Matures (60-69)
I want to make a difference—tech entitled
I want to strike a balance—flexibility matters
I don’t trust institutions—it may get worse
I respect experience—not authority
I respect authority—money is recognition

Common Survey Question Mistakes
BAD• Double-barreled question
– How often do you prefer email and/or mail communications from us?
• Inability to recall– How many times in the past year
have you visited a medical professional?
• Requesting sensitive information– Have you or someone close to
you ever required social services before?
BETTER
• Focus on one issue– How often do you prefer email
communications from us?
• Give time frames that make sense.– How many times in the past 30
days have you visited a medical professional?
• Don’t ask for sensitive information.– If you or someone you know
would like to confidentially share their experience with social service providers, please let us know.
