generation effect  

Definición

  • THE GENERATION EFFECT or cohort effect describes an influence on voting behavior that is common across a given generation, which experiences the same stages of life under the same historical circumstance, and, thus, demonstrates similar trends in worldview and political outlook. This effect is not the same as simply age. [Source: Encyclopedia of U.S. Campaigns, Elections, and Electoral Behavior; Generation Effect]
