Abstract
Due to the interest in relations among lineal generations, phenomenal aspects of social generations have been neglected. These experiences of social change, in relation to both ascending and descending generations, were the focus of an emic content analysis. For this well-educated sample of fathers over 45 years of age, social trends are as important as values changes, although the latter gain salience for descending generations.Keywords
