Despite being seen as a midlife construct, generativity (i.e., care and concern for the next generation) has significant utilization among emerging adults. However, the measures developed and recommended by seminal scholars to research generativity have had challenges when applied to the emerging adult population. Therefore, the current article outlines the history of generativity measurement, generativity measurement among emerging adults, recommendations for utilizing generativity measures in practice, and future research directions for generativity measurement among emerging adults.
