According to becker, individuals come to experience the effects and pleasures of a drug through __________.

Answer 1

Expectations and motivations from peers.

Peers are highly influential in persuading one another to try liquor, nicotine, or drugs for the first time or to continue in substance for the use and exploitation. Peers observed as higher status, or more “modern” can be particularly influential. Data from many investigations support the broadly affirmed sentiment that peers often inspire and motivate one another to the trial of drugs often.
