period effect  

Definición

  • THE PERIOD EFFECT refers to change within, or influence upon, political behavior that can be ascribed to generational difference, not simply age differences. Age differences would account for a difference of opinion on tax law between a young man and his grandfather, but not for the changes of the Civil Rights Movement or the Progressive Era. [Source: Encyclopedia of U.S. Campaigns, Elections, and Electoral Behavior; Period Effect]
