    Answer:Normative Influence

    Explanation:

    Normative Influence refers to the influence in which other people such as our friends or group which we belong or the society at large have over us that we tend to conform and alter our behaviors, or values towards their choices in order to be liked and accepted by them. These types of influence is commonly seen among teens because of the desire at this age to be recognized and accepted by their fellow peers.

    Amie changing her clothes so as not to be made fun at school is under Normative influence from her other school students and so will conform to appear in such a way that will make her acceptable to them rather than being mocked.
