Through a data-driven analysis of six generational cohorts, the findings reveal significant intergenerational differences in both the strength of ethical values and the consistency of ethical behaviour. Notably, digital immigrants demonstrate higher ethical commitment and more responsible consumption than digital natives. Accordingly, the former presents a stronger coherence between intention and behaviour, although there is no cognitive dissonance on any of the groups. The study validates key ethical consumption theories and introduces the DAS BIE scale as a novel tool for assessing generational differences. Practical implications highlight the need for targeted educational initiatives, ethical marketing strategies, and digital tools that align values with actions. This research underscores the need of a people-centred digital transformation to bridge generational disparities and foster a more sustainable, ethically engaged society. application/pdf eng IGI Global People-Centered Digital Technology for Ethical and Sustainable Business Practices, p. 191-240 https://doi.org/10.4018/979-8-3373-0385-7.ch007 Cognitive dissonance Ethical values Ethical consumption Responsible consumption Digital nativeness Digital immigrants Generational cohorts Muncy-Vittel Adela Cortina Consumo responsable Consumo-Aspectos morales Consumption (Economics)-Moral and ethical aspects Born digital: How native digital status shapes ethical behavior and consumer dissonance info:eu-repo/semantics/bookPart info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess 191 240 THUMBNAIL Diez-Born_digital_2025.pdf.jpg Diez-Born_digital_2025.pdf.jpg IM Thumbnail image/jpeg 3751 https://riubu.ubu.es/bitstream/10259/10921/4/Diez-Born_digital_2025.pdf.jpg 8554b66b8cdb778c48277872978bb3e9 MD5 4 LICENSE license.txt license.txt text/plain; charset=utf-8 1362 https://riubu.ubu.es/bitstream/10259/10921/2/license.txt 5d013bfa6e473ff0db22cd82a4d71a70 MD5 2 ORIGINAL Diez-Born_digital_2025.pdf Diez-Born_digital_2025.pdf application/pdf 1144996 https://riubu.ubu.es/bitstream/10259/10921/3/Diez-Born_digital_2025.pdf 485fb2c5b59dfe832500edc68628a757 MD5 3 10259/10921 oai:riubu.ubu.es:10259/10921 2026-01-12 13:07:24.79 Repositorio Institucional de la Universidad de Burgos bubrep@ubu.es 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
