Definition

  • Although friendship and peer relations hold great importance for adolescents and young adults, dating experiences represent fundamentally new relationship terrain during this phase of life. This entry explores the character of early romantic relationships, focusing on what is known about factors influencing variations in the timing and characteristics of dating involvement, and some of the consequences of dating for understanding adolescents' and young adults' well-being and behavioral choices.
