Abstract

Background and Study Aim: Each generation has attitudes, expectations, behaviours and experiences that are unique to it. The Alpha generation is characterised by widespread access to technology from an early age. Technological proficiency is both their strength and weakness in functioning in society. The overload on the nervous system of the Alpha generation refers to the over-processing of information, which affects their verification of valuable content. Therefore, the aim of this article is The Alpha Generation Theoretical Model of Developmental Disorders.
Material and Methods: This qualitative study uses the method of source material analysis and subjective verification of facts. This provides an in-depth understanding of the problem analysed by referring to an assumed theoretical model encapsulating reality into new knowledge. The results obtained on this basis provide a starting point for further research.
Results: Developmental risks for the Alpha generation were identified as referring to their behaviour, mental and somatic health. Behavioural problems refer to their attention problems and their imitation of violent acts available online and on TV channels. Then, mental problems refer to internet addiction syndrome and anxiety-related disorders. Finally, somatic problems refer to low physical fitness, obesity and postural defects.
Conclusions: The described developmental disorders of today’s youngest generation can be put into the theoretical model of developmental disorders of the Alpha generation. It assumes the occurrence of developmental disorders simultaneously in the behavioural, mental and somatic spheres, as possible consequences of inappropriate use of technology.
