Sažetak
Given the fact that research on the modes of impact of peer pressure on students coming from rural or urban areas is very rare, the aim of this paper is to identify the differences in characteristics of peer pressure susceptibility which affects specific risky behaviors, among students coming from rural areas and those from urban areas (N=234). The measuring instrument Peer Pressure Questionnaire was used in the research (Lebedina-Manzoni, Lotar, & Ricijaš, 2008). In data processing, in addition to calculations of the basic statistical values, discriminant analysis and univariate analysis of variance were also used. Based on the observed indicators on a latent and manifest level, it is concluded that students from rural areas are more prone to conformism, "social boycott" and risky sexual behavior, while those from urban areas are more likely to assess their engagement in risky behaviors, if imposed by peer groups. The obtained results are valuable both for scientific purposes and as a need to plan adequate forms of assistance to students from different backgrounds who are confronted with the negative effects of peer pressure which affect the occurrence of various risky behaviors. On the other hand, given that they are students of educational studies, who are specifically expected to understand and cooperate with each other, such situations can be a starting point for experiential learning and acquiring knowledge to substantiate their own intercultural competence.
