Reasons for Negative Peer Influences
• Misguided Loyalty: Students stay friends with peers that are making troublesome decisions even though they know it is probably a bad choice
• Popular friends: Students want to be popular• Danger: It seems exciting but students do not think through
the likely or possible bad consequences• Insecure: Students feel they do not have many friend
options and go along with whatever their friends want• Followers: Students let peer leaders take them down the
wrong path
