Abstract

In present China, residents' consumption tends to be more personalized and diversified, which has led many researches to pay attention to diversities and differences of consumption among different social groups. By means of the sampling survey on five different generation cohorts, namely the post-50s, the post- 60s, the post-70s, the post-80s and the post-90s residents in Nanjing, we applied multi-independent sample non-parametric test and correlation analysis method to depict and analyze the intergenerational differences in characteristics and influencing factors of residents' daily spatio- temporal behavior of consumption among five generation cohorts and between every two generation cohorts in detail. We drew main conclusions as follows: 1) Significant intergenerational differences existed in consumption space types, travel distance and consumption frequency, but no significant intergenerational difference existed in consumption time and travel time. 2) The intergenerational difference of consumption spatiotemporal behavior is not completely consistent with the age difference of generations. 3) Intergenerational differences in the influencing factors and their influencing degree of residents' daily spatio-temporal behavior of consumption were complex and varied. 4) The generation gap of consumption did exist partly, in that the residents' daily spatio-temporal behavior and influencing factors of consumption differed for each generation cohorts.
