D. Peer pressure

This scenario best demonstrates peer pressure. Deven's friends are trying to influence his behavior by pressuring him to try vaping. The fact that they are saying things like "It's not harmful at all!" and "Come on. Give it a try!" suggests that they are trying to convince him that vaping is safe and that he should try it. This is an example of peer pressure because Deven's friends are trying to influence his behavior in a way that he may not want to go.
