Psychology also has to do with the explanation of human behavior and the
rulings in both fields of what actions are right, wrong, abnormal or normal influence
how people think, feel, and act. Human behavior is difficult, if not near impossible,
to predict. If science could answer all the questions about why people choose to
act in certain ways, then many social science researchers will be jobless. With that
being said, it is crucial to explore all alleys that are present within these fields.
Currently, with the changes in society and the advancement of technology, changes
in human behavior are bound to follow. Theories such as Social Learning Theory
focus solely on how children learn from those that they interact with on a regular
basis (Akers, 2014). However, not much is to be said about the potential moderating
deviant activities. Additionally, there is a lack of research on this subject during the
transitional period from childhood to adolescence. Everyone can agree that children
seemed to be imitating the behaviors of adults at a much earlier age in the current
era than in the time of the Baby Boomers. Social media is booming with photos of
thirteen-year-old girls in midriff shirts and blogs rant about young boys being

exposed to violent video games at an earlier age. With these changes in social
norms, come behavioral changes. Groups of teens and young adults have always
been subjected to peer pressures, but is the pressure occurring earlier due to the
shift in age of exposure to sex, drugs, and alcohol? News stories are constantly
airing about being involved in drug busts or underage drinking, and one can only
wonder, is there some way to prevent these changes in behavior or predict that
these children are going to behave in this way? In response to these cultural
changes, the current study takes a problem that has been around for decades, peer
in adolescents can mediate the effect of peer deviance during the transitional period
Theoretrical Framework
This theory was propounded by Albert Bandura in 1977. He was born on 4th
of December 1925 in the small town of Mundare in Northern Alberta, Canada. The
theory is based on the major premise that behavior is learned and can be unlearned.

can influence his or her environment using the personality qualities. Consequently,

reinforcement, the person imitating the model receives reinforcement directly. When
a child, for instance is praised for exhibiting a behaviour, he was receiving direct
reinforcement. In vicarious reinforcement, the person imitating the model does not
get reinforced directly. It is rather the model that is reinforced. When one watches a
reinforcement. The motivation to identify with a model stems from the fact that this
model possesses a quality which the individual would like to possess. Identification
with a model involves the individual taking on observed behaviours, values, beliefs
and attitudes of the person with whom he is identifying. Relating it to the present
study, adolescents can model their behaviour after their peers who have positive
performance.
seeming relationship that may exist among peer pressure, time management and
academic performance. The implication is that, for any adolescent who is influenced
by positive peer pressure, who utilizes his/her time judiciously there is a tendency for
the person to do better in his/her academics than the adolescent who do otherwise.
This theory is therefore relevant to this study in the sense that, it will help students
to acquire the capacity of solving his own problem. It will also help students to learn
the characteristics and behaviour that make up their personality through observation
and imitation.

However, peers can also have a negative influence. They can encourage each

risky behaviours. Majority of adolescents with substance abuse problems began using

tasks in a prioritized order and allocating time to the tasks according to their order of
importance, and helping one achieve desired objectives (Achunine, 2010). Time
management is the ability to manage and control time. (Lakein, 2013). The use of
planners, calendars and the like are effective tools in managing time. Time
management is the art of arranging organizing, scheduling and budgeting one’s time
for the purpose of generating more effective work and productivity. (Lakein, 2013).
Time management is important for everyone, while time management books and
seminars often focus on business leaders and corporations, time management is also
crucial for students, teachers, professionals, and home makers. Time management is
mostly about self-management. One may be right to say that time management is the
ability of an individual or group of individuals to make proper use of their time in order
and alleviate stress, and productivity (Misra, 2009). Implementing time management
strategies helps to organize aspects of one’s life, therefore allowing one’s time to
complete all the tasks necessary to reduce one’s stress level. In completing the task

Adolescent period is a time when many young people take the opportunity to
assess themselves as well as begin the process of seeking out their own personal

Adolescents’ time used in school and peer experiences may also have profound
influences on the development of problem behavior. Some literature shows high level
of family support and cohesion are associated with lower levels of adolescent
substance use, delinquency and other negative outcomes (Barnes and Farrell (2013).
On the order hand, large exclusive amount of time spent in unsupervised peer context
may reinforce or exacerbate adolescent substance use and delinquency. Thus, large
amount of unsupervised time spent with peers at parties, “hanging out” at malls, dating
and talking on the phone may contribute to a variety of negative peer pressure in
