'90s generation living 'substantial' lives

Survey sheds new light on attitudes leading to happiness

Although the generation born in the 1990s has been widely labeled as selfish, lazy and money-worshipping, recent research has found otherwise, portraying the generation as calm, rational, trustworthy and full of positive energy.

The survey of students born between 1990 and 2000 covered such topics as their political and social views, what they consider to be the top 10 controversial issues, and their ideal lovers. Many of the survey reports - there are about a dozen - were to be released for National Youth Day, which is Monday.
