The extent to which peer influences on substance use in adolescence systematically vary in strength based on qualities of the adolescent and his or her close friend was assessed in a study of 157 adolescents (age: M = 13.35, SD = 0.64), their close friends, and their parents assessed longitudinally with a combination of observational, analogue, sociometric, and self-report measures from early to mid adolescence. The degree to which adolescents changed their levels of substance use in accord with their peers' baseline levels of use was predicted by a range of theoretically salient factors including: observed teen lack of autonomy and social support in prior interactions with mothers, low teen refusal skills, and the level of social acceptance of their close friend. Findings suggest the importance of both internal factors (e.g., autonomy and relatedness struggles) and external factors (e.g., social status of friends) in explaining why vulnerability to peer influence processes may be much greater for some adolescents than others.
Interaction of Peer Substance Use and Maternal Relationship Qualities Predicting Relative Change in Adolescent Substance Use (all measures are standardized).
LLM interpretation
This figure consists of two interaction plots showing the relationship between baseline peer substance use (x-axis) and relative change in adolescent substance use (y-axis). The top plot shows a steeper positive slope for "Hi Teen Recantations with Mother" compared to a flatter slope for "Lo Teen Recantations." The bottom plot shows a steeper positive slope for "Lo Maternal Positivity" compared to a flatter slope for "Hi Maternal Positivity."
Interaction of Peer Substance Use and Peer Social Acceptance Predicting Relative Change in Adolescent Substance Use (all measures are standardized).
LLM interpretation
This is a line graph showing the interaction between baseline peer substance use (x-axis) and peer social acceptance on the relative change in adolescent substance use (y-axis). A steep positive slope is observed for "Well-liked Peers," indicating that higher peer substance use strongly predicts an increase in adolescent use for this group. In contrast, the line for "Less well-liked Peers" remains nearly flat, showing little to no relationship between peer substance use and the change in adolescent use.
Interaction of Peer Substance Use and Adolescent Social Skills Handling Peer Deviance Predicting Relative Change in Adolescent Substance Use (all measures are standardized).
LLM interpretation
This is a line graph showing the interaction between baseline peer substance use (x-axis) and relative change in adolescent substance use (y-axis) for two groups. The "Low-skilled Teens" group shows a strong positive correlation, where higher peer substance use is associated with a significant increase in their own substance use. In contrast, the "High-skilled Teens" group shows a nearly flat line, indicating that peer substance use has little to no effect on their relative change in substance use.
