Risky behaviors are behaviors which lead to insufficient decision, such as unprotected sexual behavior and drug use. Environmental factors around college students who are mostly late adolescent and young emerging adults could lead them to risky behaviors. Those factors can include movies they watch, radio stations they listen to, social media, and their peers who introduce social norms among peers. College students’ risky behaviors can be affected by those social norms of peers, often through peer pressure. In the current study, the dynamics among peer pressure, social media, and risky behaviors among college students will be studied by interviewing undergraduate students at one of main universities in southern region in the U.S.
