Module Overview
Originated by Prof. Rhiaan Oliver
Peer pressure occurs when a peer group or individual encourages others to change their attitudes, values, or behaviours to conform to those of the influencing group or individual. Peer pressure can impact bullying behaviour both in positive and negative ways. This module looks at ‘real life’ situations and asks students to observe them and consider how making choices about behaviour and responses affects the outcome for all concerned – psychologically, emotionally, physically, and socially.
