Step-by-step explanation:

Physically: Edmundson describes them as consumerists, students who only think about satisfying their physical needs, such as studying in a large classroom, having good cafeterias at the university, and they just want to spend it comfortably in the universities.

Intellectually: Edmundson describes them as conformists, they only feel satisfied with what the instructor tells them or with what they can learn, they only want to "find pleasant experiences" but do not want to deepen their knowledge, they do not demand of themselves, to be better, to innovate and share new knowledge, Edmundson also describes a very common reality in many young university students, they like reading very little.

Emotionally: Edmundson describes them as emotionally egocentric, that is, they only think about their comforts in living well and enjoying the comforts they can get from others, but they do not think about the importance of being better every day, in overcoming their own skills and knowledge. , nor in the possibility of really bringing innovative and surprising things to the world.
