The correct answer is the modernization theory.

The modernization theory is a sociological theory that focuses on the evolution of society in terms of technological and other developments over time, and its effects on individuals in society. From this theoretical perspective, one of the effects of modernization in society is that older generation individuals are unable to keep up with the advances in technology due to which they might feel obsolete and lose social standing and power.
