The purpose of this study was to find out whether there is a relationship between peer conformity and bullying behavior of junior high school students, the research location is SMP Negeri 2 Puri Mojokerto. The respondents used were class VII and VIII with a total sample of 158 students. This research method is quantitative with saturated sampling technique using SPSS 17.0 for Windows. The instrument used is the conformity scale and bullying behavior using a questionnaire. In this analysis using the Product Moment Correlation Analysis formula using SPSS 17.0 for windows, the researcher conducted an analysis test on 158 students with a result of 0.000 which was significantly less than 0.05 or p<0,05. Hypothesis testing produces a correlation coefficient of -0.363 between the variables of conformity and bullying behavior, to test the hypothesis using Pearson's Product Moment, showing a low negative correlation between the x and y variables. So there is a significant relationship between peer conformity and student bullying behavior so that it has a negative but low correlation.
