Abstract

WhatsApp as one of the CMC platforms, is now a link for communication interactions between individuals and groups within the family who are limited by distance, time and even age. Researchers are interested in knowing the use of computer-mediated communication by Gen Z in the WAG extended family. Using withdrawal theory and deficit approach. Using qualitative descriptive with in-depth interviews. The aim of this research is to find out and explore more deeply the behavior and habits that generation Z develops when using the WAG extended family. Research data was obtained through interviews with 6 people as representatives of Gen Z who are members of the WhatsApp extended family group. The results of this research found that generation Z tends to have minimal or limited communication in WAG even though they have been joining for years, generation Z is involved in communication in WAG based on situations of need and is required (asked to send photos, share location, get tags/mentions), generation Z feels uncomfortable communicating on WAG because they have different topics, interests, language barriers, the potential to receive negative feedback and produce wrong perceptions in communicating, Generation Z uses the mute notification and archive features on WAG, Generation Z still thinks that WAG Extended Family is useful and I want to continue to be part of it.
