Abstract

Household consumption varies, sometimes vastly, with different generations, shaped by diverse experiences such as economic conditions, technology, and cultural values (Owen & Büchs, 2024). This is particularly evident in China, due to the vast economic and technological developments which have taken place in the past half-century (Hu et al., 2020).
