Preferred term

dating in adolescence  

Definition(s)

  • Although the term dating conjures up images of young men and women pairing off and engaging in social activities together, arriving at an acceptable empirical definition is more difficult, due largely to sociohistorical changes. Prior to the 1970s, dating referred to heterosocial interactions that were somewhat formal in function and structure. [Source: Encyclopedia of Applied Developmental Science; Dating in Adolescence]
