If your friends always go for pizza, you are likely to eat pizza as well. Which influence is this?

• A. Time and Money
• B. Advertising
• C. Friends
• D. Hunger

Answer: (C)

This question tests how people are shaped by those around them, specifically friends, in everyday choices. When your friends always go for pizza, you’re likely to eat pizza too because you want to fit in, share activities, and follow the group’s habits. This kind of influence is peer or social influence—the behavior of people you spend time with can set a pattern for you.

The other factors don’t fit this scenario as the primary driver: Time and Money would matter if budget or availability were the issue; Advertising would imply a message from media or promotions rather than friends’ behavior; Hunger is an internal signal that would push you to eat regardless of what others are doing. Here, the driving force is what your friends are doing.
