Abstract

In the current educational environment, the "involution" culture which is a state of excessive competition and irrational internal consumption is spreading rapidly among high school students, and the impact of peer pressure on students' learning efficiency has become an important topic. This survey aims to explore the relationship between peer pressure and learning efficiency among high school students. A survey was conducted on high school students. To ensure the scientific rigor of the research results, the t-test was used to conduct an in-depth analysis of the data.The results of the study show that in the sample of learning efficiency problems, the average scores of high school students for peer pressure did not show significant differences, which indicates that within the scope of this study, the impact of peer pressure on the learning efficiency of high school students in different situations did not show obvious differences. At the same time, gender factors also did not show significant differences in the relationship between peer pressure and learning efficiency, that is, the changes in learning efficiency of boys and girls when facing peer pressure were indicating that boys and girls exhibited similar patterns of learning efficiency when facing peer pressure. In addition, this study conducted a multi-dimensional cross-analysis of the data to further verify the reliability of the results. These findings provide important implications for subsequent research on high school students' learning behavior, and also provide new ideas for educators to optimize teaching strategies and relieve student stress.
