Abstract

Peer influence isn’t always negative, as commonly thought. There are positive aspects too. Nicolette Sullivan presented teenagers with situations in which they would receive more money than their friends. In the presence of peers, teens were less likely to accept advantages and preferred to share the money equally. She writes that peer presence can be leveraged to promote positive social behaviours in adolescents.
