Abstract: This invention is related to technology-mediated predictive model for analysing and predicting Generation Alpha's purchase intention by combining the purchase decision factors of Millennial parents with the inclusion of digital technology, which was carried out using a technique called Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) - Smart-PLS. The invention integrates multiple constructs of consumer behavior, namely, Economic consideration, social influence, Brand perception, Parenting style and behaviour, Convenience and accessibility, Perceived risk, Technology enabled product preferences (TEP), and Digital & Social media influence and E-commerce platforms (DSM) into one computational model. The framework not only analyses direct but also indirect relationships between these constructs and identifies technology as an important and influential mediating variable in purchase intention of Generation Alpha. The invention includes methods for validating measurement model, methods for evaluating structural model, mediation
