Adolescent Cliques
Adolescent cliques are cliques that develop amongst adolescents. In the social sciences, the word "clique" is used to describe a large group of 6 to 12 "who interact with each other more regularly and intensely than others in the same setting". Cliques are distinguished from " crowds" in that their members socially interact with one another more than the typical crowd (e.g. hang out together, go shopping, play sports etc.).

Interacting with cliques is part of normative social development regardless of gender, ethnicity, or popularity. Although cliques are most commonly studied during adolescence and in educational settings, they can exist in all age groups and settings. Definition As children enter adolescence, cu ...
