I think it would be peer pressure because by definition peer pressure is the influence from members of one's peer group (or clique) but the definition of a clique is a small group of people with shared interests  or other features in common, they usually spend time together and exclude others from their group. So technically clique behavior is a bit different from peer pressure where you are pressured to do the this or like that, therefore I think peer pressure

Clique behavior would be for example excluding someone for not having the same interest, likes, or beliefs. If you did not have their likes originally than most likely you wouldn't be in a clique with them(: Sorry for the long and delayed reply!
