English term or phrase: peer substance use
FYI: The divisions of 'Adolescent Medicine' and ' Departments of Pediatrics' in several major Schools of Medicine, and their Universities have been studying "Tattooing and High-Risk Behavior in Adolescents" and have concluded: “Tattooing was strongly associated with peer substance use”. And... “Adjusting for sociodemographic factors and peer substance use, tattooing in adolescents was independently and significantly associated with reported sexual intercourse, substance use, violent behaviors, and school problems.” (I am not at liberty to give this source of information at this time). I wear temporary tattoos sometimes, where do I fall in this study? :)
