According to social researcher Mark McCrindle in his book 'The ABC of XYZ: Understanding the Global Generations' (www.mccrindle.com.au), this is what we can expect the next generation to be called. Given the fact that the generational span has contracted significantly from 20-25 years to 15 years, he also predicts that the next generation is due to begin in 2010.
So, why 'Beta'? With generational analysis having moved from a stage of foundation to consolidation, a more predictable labelling system is being formed. There being consensus on the alphabetised theme of Generations X, Y and Z, it is most likely that the next generation will be Generation Alpha (the first letter of the Greek alphabet). This nomenclature of moving to the Greek alphabet after exhausting the Latin one (A, B, C, D etc), has a long history with meteorologists. In fact, scientists of all disciplines use the Greek alphabet as a labelling sequence and so it looks likely that the sociologists will follow this trend with the generations too.

Get the gamma phi beta mug.A state of high anxiety with people prone with Autism or very sensitive to sound, which is caused by abnormally high frequency brain waves. During high beta alertness, the person may become perceptive enough to hear their own brain waves, and only the sound of either a low frequency, or a calming voice may take them out of this state of anxiety. It can sometimes not be caused by an anxious episode, but it can make a person feel anxious, since in a quiet environment the high pitch humming akin to Tinnitus can be heard at times.
Doc, I am hearing this weird ringing in my ears , every time I get stressed out when I am in a quiet room.
Your EEG scan showed that you have have High Beta Alertness by since your ears are really perceptive due to your hyper-sensitive hearing and your EEG shows that the frequencies inside your head are loud enough for your Cochlea to pick up, since your Cochlea is very sensitive to high pitch sound and low pitch sound, so therefore you can hear form -20DB to over 25,000 DB as your hearing sensitivity is off the charts!
