dc.description Negative peer influence is one of the main risk factors associated with antisocial development among children and adolescents. In order to better understand these processes and to develop adequate preventive interventions, it is crucial that the factors that moderate peer influence are recognized. Such moderating variables can indicate who is at especially high risk for being negatively influenced by peers, and which conditions can buffer such a negative impact. In order to structure the existing evidence, a systematic review of all longitudinal studies on this topic published until 2011 is presented. The results from 66 studies that were included in the review show that the influence of peers on the development of an individual’s antisocial behavior depends on different personal, psychological, and social-contextual conditions. Findings are discussed in terms of their relevance for prevention strategies and future research initiatives.
