Therefore, it will be explained in detail in Chapter Two. Besides that, this research survey was distributed to the respondents through Google Form, and collected 399 responses from Gen Z. Furthermore, the research methodology will be well explained in Chapter Three. Moreover, Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) version 25 is used to analyze all the data collected. In the ending part of this research, some major findings will be conferred. The implications, limitations, and recommendations for future research will also be includeding it.
