    This document discusses deviant behavior and social reactions to it. It defines deviant behavior as acts that violate social and cultural norms. Sociologists view deviance differently, with positivist perspectives seeing it as real behavior caused by factors like social learning. Constructionist perspectives see deviance as a social label applied situationally. Social learning theory holds that deviant behavior is learned through interacting with others, especially if one identifies with deviant others or is differentially reinforced for such acts. Society controls deviance through formal legal systems and informal social bonds. Labelling theory also notes that being labelled as deviant can lead one to take on that identity and continue deviant acts. [/SUMMARY]

    How Do Sociologists Define Deviant Behavior?


    Positivist Perspective
    Absolutist view : deviant behavior is absolutely real objectivist view : deviance is an observable object determinist view : deviance is determined behavior, a product of causation.

    Constructionist Perspective
    relativist view : the so-called deviance is largely a label applied to an act at a given time and place subjectivist view : deviance is itself a subjective experience, and the voluntarist view that deviance is a voluntary, self-willed act.

    Social Reaction / Labelling Theory


    Social Reaction Theory proposes that when a person commits a crime; they will receive the label of "criminal". When a person is labeled as such by society, they are likely to accept this label as a part of themselves. Because the person now thinks of him/herself as a criminal, he/she is now likely to continue in his/her criminal behavior
