This article reviews empirical and theoretical contributions to a multidisciplinary understanding of peer influence processes in adolescence over the past decade. Five themes of peer influence research from this decade were identified, including a broadening of the range of behaviors for which peer influence occurs, distinguishing the sources of influence, probing the conditions under which influence is amplified/attenuated (moderators), testing theoretically based models of peer influence processes (mechanisms), and preliminary exploration of behavioral neuroscience perspectives on peer influence. This review highlights advances in each of these areas, underscores gaps in current knowledge of peer influence processes, and outlines important challenges for future research.
本文回顾了过去十年间对青少年同伴影响过程进行多学科理解的实证和理论贡献。确定了这十年间同伴影响研究的五个主题,包括同伴影响所涉及行为范围的拓宽、区分影响源、探究影响增强/减弱的条件(调节因素)、测试基于理论的同伴影响过程模型(机制),以及对同伴影响的行为神经科学观点的初步探索。本综述突出了这些领域中的每一项进展,强调了当前同伴影响过程知识中的差距,并概述了未来研究的重要挑战。
