Peer pressure is the direct or indirect influence on

people of peers, members of social groups with
similar interests, experiences, or social statuses.

Peer pressure is the influence wielded by people

within the same social group. It is also the term used
to describe the effect this influence has on a person
to conform in order to be accepted by the group.
Often, peers are thought of as friends, but peers can
be anyone of a similar status, such as people who are
the same age, who have the same abilities, or who
share a social status.

Peer pressure is commonly thought of in a negative

light, but in reality, it's not always a bad thing.
Sometimes peer pressure is used to positively
influence people. Learning about acceptable group
norms can be a positive part of learning how to live
with and socialize with other people.

overt, which means that some forms of
