Definition
- In order to begin to examine the sociological benefits of play it must first be acknowledged that empirical evidence for the functional role of play is limited. Consequently play is not an embedded mainstream area of research in psychology, biology, or the social sciences. [Source: Encyclopedia of Play in Today's Society; Sociological Benefits of Play]
