Explanation:
"Students’ Work Ethic Affected by Peer Groups, Desire to Be Popular" is an interview hosted by Steve Inskeep on NPR. The inteviewee was Shankar Vedantam.
The inteview focused on the issue of choices made by students that are affected by peer groups and their desire to be popular. To know the results of this theory, a research was conducted by Leonardo Bursztyn at UCLA and Robert Jensen at the Wharton School. They offered a free SAT prep course to the 11th grade students in honors and non-honors students. And the results proved that students' decisions, when being surrounded by their peers, are influenced. They make choices to win the approval of their peer groups, and the people who want to be popular are more likely to take decisions conforming to the patterns of their peer groups.
So, from the given options the correct one is B.
