Organizing the Baby Boomer Construct: An Exploration of Marketing, Social Systems, and Culture
Lipschultz, Jeremy H.; Hilt, Michael L.; Reilly, Hugh J.
Educational Gerontology, v33 n9 p759-773 Sep 2007
Baby boomer trends are applied in the development of a conceptual framework that offers a social systems and cultural model for future studies. While there has been considerable recent attention paid to baby boomers, the studies lack a coherent theoretical base that would allow for more advanced and continuing research. Aging baby boomers heading into retirement present excellent research opportunities for scholars. (Contains 1 figure.)
