One-way or two-way arrow?: a bidirectional relationship between adolescent`s social media use and peer pressure and the gender difference

HIGHLIGHTS

• What: The aim of this study is to investigate whether there is a positive correlation between the use of social media and peer pressure among adolescents and whether this correlation varies by gender. The results from the study showed that the drug use of different genders had no significant difference when peer influence was low, and when peer influence increased, males used more substances than females . In terms of purpose, communicating and interacting with others are the main reasons why male adolescents use social media, but female adolescents use it more for learning or other educational goals . . .
