Marriage among Digital Natives

Our culture loves to give labels for everything. The label attached to everyone born before 1980 is the digital native or Generation Z. The digital natives have emerged as a population increasingly worthy of attention due to their peculiar characteristics and culture. This study examines whether what the digital native evangelists claim is valid or not, i.e. being a digital native does influence behavior and attitude toward marriage. A 20 item survey questionnaire was developed and used to assess the attitudes of digital natives on marriage. The results indicate that digital natives support online dating, co habitation, believe in inter racial marriage, and inter faith marriage. A lot of digital natives do not wish to marry and several of them do not want children. This paper reports our investigation on the attitude of digital natives towards life, relationship, and marriage. Matthew N. O. Sadiku | Uwakwe C. Chukwu | Juliana King | Janet O, Sadiku | Sarhan M.
