Abstract

Peer pressure is a central part of adolescent social life, shaping not only behavior but also self-presentation and identity formation. This study examines how peer pressure affects individual behavior and why young people may act differently across social contexts. It uses an exploratory qualitative design supported by descriptive questionnaire data from 12 student respondents, along with literature review, observation, and reflective Socratic questioning. The findings show that peer pressure was a recognizable everyday experience among respondents. The most common forms were social pressure and pressure to follow group decisions despite personal disagreement, while fear of exclusion or judgment emerged as the strongest reason for conformity. Through Goffman’s dramaturgical theory and Rogers’ humanistic theory, the findings suggest that peer pressure can be understood as both a problem of social performance and a challenge to self-concept. This study contributes an integrated interpretation of peer pressure as a relational process that shapes adolescent behavior, self-presentation, and identity negotiation.
