A phenomenon is observed mainly in the middle to late school years when children form tightly-knit, closed groups of about 5 to 10 people of the same sex and become absorbed in group play. Such groups are called gangs, and this age came to be called the gang age, following the book The Gang Age (1926) by P.H. Furfey, an American who contributed to the study of gangs. Typically, children are seen to escape from the eyes of adults, create hideouts, group rules, codes, badges, and other signs of belonging, and engage in various group games, including adventures and pretend exploration, while strengthening their loyalty and unity to the group.

おもに学童中期から後期にかけて,同性による5~10人前後の結合の強い閉鎖的な集団を形成し,集団遊びに熱中する現象がみられる。その集団をギャング(徒党)集団とよび,その研究に貢献したアメリカのファーフェーP.H.Furfeyの著書《ギャング・エージ》(1926)にならって,この年ごろをギャング・エージとよぶようになった。典型的には,おとなの目を離れて隠れ家や集団の掟,暗号やバッジなど仲間であることのしるしをつくり,集団への忠誠や結束を高めながら,冒険や探検ごっこなどをはじめ種々の集団遊びを展開する姿がみられる。
