Definition

  • Children and teenagers represent a very special clientele when it comes to research; they are still developing and are challenged by the various influences on their identity development as they seek to find their place in life; to learn about themselves by dealing with others; to interact with and position themselves within the family, the peer group, and other institutions; and to perceive their gender and act according to their role. Often, they turn for help to the available media. [Source: Encyclopedia of Children, Adolescents, and the Media; Research Methods, Children and]
