Full textAbstract:
L'articolo affronta prevalentemente le tematiche della devianza giovanile, magistralmente sviluppate da Renzo Canestrari, sia in una prospettiva di ricerca scientifica che in una prospettiva più propriamente operativa. Seguendo il percorso del prof. Canestrari, rilevabile dalla sua cospicua produzione scientifica, si mette in evidenza l'importanza delle tecniche osservative per la criminologia e le loro implicazioni teoriche affinché il loro impiego sia riconosciuto come sempre maggiormente valido e scientificamente sorvegliato. L'autore si sofferma poi ad analizzare il pensiero di Renzo Canestrari, evidenziando come la dimensione personale e quella sociale siano, nell'opera del Maestro, gli elementi imprescindibili per interpretare e prevenire la devianza giovanile in un'ottica di educazione integrale.

Full textAbstract:
Starting from the concept of social justice and from universal children’s rights (UN, 1989), the contribution questions the role of education in enhancing the originality and uniqueness of each one and in restoring responsibility and dignity to fragile (Milani, 2019), difficult (Bertolini ,1993) and deviant (Vico, 1988) young people. In a complex contemporaneity, tested by pandemic’s sufferings and restrictions, the pedagogical look underlines the importance of reconstructing – starting from school – promotional, capacitating and justice-oriented paths. Deviant acts are read in the light of a broad social responsibility. We propose the empowerment of an educating community (Agazzi, 1968) aimed at participation, dialogue (Freire, 2002) and assumption of an active and inclusive citizenship. The juvenile penal system is collectively rethought, favouring diversion from prosecution, mediation, reparation and probation strategies.
Giustizia e devianza minorile dopo la pandemia Covid-19. Percorsi alternativi tra promozione scolastica e rieducazione.
Partendo dal concetto di giustizia sociale e dai diritti universali delle bambine, dei bambini e degli adolescenti (UN, 1989), il contributo si interroga sul ruolo dell’educazione nel valorizzare l’originalità e l’unicità di ciascuno e nel restituire responsabilità e dignità ai soggetti fragili (Milani, 2019), difficili (Bertolini, 1993) e devianti (Vico, 1988). In una contemporaneità complessa, provata dalla sofferenza e dalle restrizioni della pandemia, lo sguardo pedagogico sottolinea l’importanza di ricostruire, a partire dalla scuola, percorsi promozionali, capacitanti e orientati alla giustizia. Si rileggono gli atti devianti alla luce di un’ampia responsabilità sociale e si propone l’empowerment di una comunità educante (Agazzi, 1968) volta alla partecipazione, al dialogo (Freire, 2002) e all’assunzione di una cittadinanza attiva e inclusiva per ripensare collettivamente il sistema penale minorile privilegiando deviazioni dall’accusa, strategie di mediazione, di riparazione e di messa alla prova.

Full textAbstract:
A partire dall’analisi dei documenti conservati presso l’Archivio Storico Provinciale di Bologna, il presente articolo ricostruisce la storia dell’asilo di maternità, annesso, nel 1860, al secolare brefotrofio cittadino, con il fine di rivolgersi non più solo ai bambini illegittimi, ma anche alle donne che li portavano in grembo; essi divennero centri di propulsione di politiche e iniziative che intendevano superare le vecchie e ormai obsolete logiche che collocavano queste madri nella categoria della «devianza», per riconoscerle come soggetti verso i quali prevedere forme di tutela a livello sociale e igienico-sanitario. La storia dell’istituzione felsinea verrà confrontata con altre strutture nate con simili scopi e finalità su scala nazionale, al cui interno verranno sperimentate e sviluppate nuove conoscenze e pratiche nel campo dell’ostetricia.

L'Autore, dopo aver brevemente richiamato i contenuti della Convenzione lntemazionale dei diritti dell'Infanzia (New York 1989, ratificata dall'Italia con la legge 27 maggio 1991 n. 176) riguardanti la promozione dell'affidamento temporaneo minorile a famiglia diversa da quella originaria allorché quest'ultima si trovi in condizione di difficoltà altrimenti non superabile e tale da compromettere l'allevamento e l'educazione del minore, si sofferma a considerare le varie condizioni di inadeguatezza, o anche di patologia, della famiglia che determinano la condizione di rischio sopra indicata a danno del minore. Rileva altresì come sempre più frequenti nella società moderna siano anche i fenomeni di devianza e di trasgressione giovanili. In questo contesto, valuta l'apporto che ha dato l'istituto dell'affidamento eterofamiliare nell'esperienza italiana di questi ultimi anni, a partire dall'entrata in vigore della legge "Disciplina dell'adozione e dell'affidamento dei minori" (4 maggio l 983, n.184). Descrive gli aspetti positivi e le difficoltà della corretta applicazione dell'istituto dell'affidamento eterofamiliare, le distorsioni cui ha dato luogo considerando sia le caratteristiche degli affidanti e degli affidatari che la durata dell'affidamento, le caratteristiche dell'attuale mentalità del giudice minorile e dell'operatore sociale (spesso conflittuali nella formazione e nella prassi), le competenze del servizio sociale e del Tribunale dei minori. Auspicando la chiarificazione volenterosa dei problemi sollevati ed una migliore conoscenza generalizzata, nella società, delle potenzialità che offre tale istituto, si sofferrna sugli aspetti etici dell'affidamento eterofamiliare, cui va riconosciuta ispirazione solidaristica ed alto contenuto morale se correttamente impiegato.

Full textAbstract:
Le malattie, soprattutto se infettive, hanno da sempre accompagnato la storia dell’umanità, modificando profondamente gli assetti economici e condizionando le strutture sociali e l’evoluzione culturale di intere popolazioni. Tutto questo è ancora vero per un miliardo e mezzo di persone colpite da malattie che l’occidente ha oramai dimenticato e che sono endemiche nelle aree tropicali del pianeta (Neglected Tropical Diseases – NTDs). Enormemente favorite dalla povertà, esse sono a loro volta una delle principali cause di povertà e uno dei più insidiosi ostacoli allo sviluppo di estese aree geografiche dell’Asia, dell’Africa e dell’America Latina. Occorre combattere la povertà per ridurre le malattie, ma occorre anche eliminare le malattie per sollevare dalla povertà e favorire lo sviluppo. Contrastare le NTDs significa tuttavia affrontare contesti caratterizzati oltre che dalla povertà, da equilibri sociali precari, da drammatiche condizioni igienico-sanitarie, dall’assenza o inadeguatezza delle infrastrutture e dei sistemi sanitari, da varie forme di discriminazione ed esclusione sociale dei malati: fattori questi che ostacolano qualsiasi azione a partire dalla stessa raccolta e verifica dei dati epidemiologici. Sono qui esaminate alcune strategie di intervento ispirate all’approccio community-driven, diretto al coinvolgimento delle comunità locali nell’integrazione e gestione delle misure di contrasto. È analizzato inoltre il ruolo degli operatori sanitari informali (Community Health Workers) nella diffusione di comportamenti, informazioni e strumenti di profilassi e nella valorizzazione di pratiche locali marginali che tuttavia si siano dimostrate efficaci nel contrasto o prevenzione di una o più NTDs (devianza positiva). Una riflessione conclusiva è dedicata alla formazione dei CHWs ai fini dell’educazione sanitaria di comunità.

Full textAbstract:
A constructivist grounded theory approach was used to understand how some people living with stigmatized health conditions develop positive deviance to overcome stigma. We examined interviews from 13 identified positive deviants living with four different stigmatized health conditions (HIV, leprosy, schizophrenia, and diabetes) in Indonesia. Positive deviance develops in the form of psychological empowerment through improvement of self-belief and perception (intrapersonal component), development of understanding and skill to exert control in life (interactional component), and self-discovery of successful behaviors and strategies to avert stigma (behavioral component). Positive deviants, after being empowered, start empowering others affected by sharing their knowledge and fostering social awareness and acceptance. The findings revealed the presence of problem-solving ability and agency within the community of stigmatized individuals in Indonesia and warrant researchers to partner with the community to expedite the diffusion of transferable positive deviant strategies within and outside the communities.

Abstract SOCIAL REACTION TO DEVIANCE : AN EXPLORATORY STUDY The object of this exploratory study is to analyse social reactions to deviance by endeavouring to show some of the mechanisms of these re- actions. To do this, we have isolated deviant behaviour from its situational elements in order to study the fluctuations of reactions according to the nature of the deviance, and according to the categories of those reacting to the deviance. The instrument of measurement is a questionnaire which was administered to a random sample for pre-testing. This sample was drawn from the metropolitan region of Montreal. The data analysis is concerned with the degree of generality, consensus, consistency and contingency of reactions in terms of the nature of the deviant behaviour. The results showed the reactions to be surprisingly general. The regularity of the continuum drawn by the indices of contingency and those of strictly punitive consensus was remarkable. This exploratory study gives interested researchers information on crime-deviance continuums and social reactions to deviance. The continuum of social reactions is clearly defined, and this gives us reason to believe it would be possible to introduce an order of importance in the evaluation of social reactions.

Previous studies have focused on the seriousness of the offenses but have neglected the offenders. This analysis used a Bogardus-type social distance scale of 23 deviant roles using a sample of 524 respondents who indicated decided preferences for some types of deviant offenders over others. It was concluded that individuals occupying various roles such as judges, defenders, juries, and so on may feel great social distance toward certain types of offenders and may act differentially toward them.

Full textAbstract:
Normele legale şi morale, regulile de comportare şi valorile acceptate în societate, numite în ansamblu „norme sociale”, servesc ca etalon de măsură sau de apreciere a comportamentului uman. Noţiunea de devianţă presupune neconformitatea cu normele sociale ce vizează atât actele de încălcare a legilor şi regulilor de convieţuire socială, cât şi tipurile de comportamente considerate „normale”. În contextul transformărilor socio-economice, amploarea fenomenului devianţei juvenile cu toate elementele sale – asistenţa psihologică a minorilor, a familiilor acestora etc. suscită un interes sporit pentru comunitatea educaţională. Minorii cu un comportament care se abate de la regulile admise de societate reprezintă o categorie de persoane cu caracteristici psihosociale specifice. Efectuând intervenţia psihologică, trebuie să se ţină cont atât de aceste trăsături, cât şi de consecinţele fiecărui tip de conduită deviantă. Articolul de faţă reflectă analiza succintă a elementelor conceptuale ale comportamentului deviant la minori, precum şi unele caracteristici, cauze ce contribuie la apariţia acestuia. De asemenea, elucidează rolul parteneriatului şcoală–familie şi cel al psihologului pentru înlăturarea unei asemenea conduite. În final, sunt propuse unele sugestii pentru specialiştii din domeniu.

Full textAbstract:
The main goal of this paper is to investigate various forms of social deviations that can be related to the phenomenon of the black wave of Yugoslav cinematography. The analysis is structured according to our general typology of possible models of connection between artistic and deviant contents (1. artist as a deviant; 2. presentation of deviance as a theme of a work of art; 3. work of art as a deviant phenomenon or action [Matković, 2017]). The author noticed complex and heterogeneus perspective of the relationship between the black wave and the sphere of social deviance, present at several different levels, which provided a basis for concluding on the multiperspectivity of deviance associated with the aforementioned artistic orientation. Among other conclusions, it was pointed out that the most energetic socio-political reaction was caused by the presentation of social deviations with political connotations, as well as deviations related to the dissatisfaction of various categories of Yugoslav society (i.e. those deviations that directly threatened the survival of the official state ideology and ruling regime), while the cinematographic treatment of socio-pathological phenomena in a narrower sense, although also undesirable, was still more tolerated, being subjected to repressions of lower intensity.

Deviance is a fundamental social construct because the members of society interpret its meaning and attribute its meaning to it. In our research we described the causes that determine deviance (juvenile delinquency): internal/individual causes and external / social causes. The purpose of the research was to make a comparison between the psychological problems of institutionalized adolescents with deviant behaviour and those of non-institutionalized adolescents with deviant behaviour.

This research contains an analysis of the "Seandainya Aku Boleh Memilih" novel by Mira W, which tells of various aspects of life in a civilized environment. In the novel, there are various social problems, so it is fulfilled to research social deviations. Structural functionalism's theory of social deviance sees deviant behavior as a result of social structural pressures. The focus of this research is to describe the manifestations of social deviance behavior and the factors that cause these social deviations, which are constructed in the "Seandainya Aku Boleh Memilih" novel by Mira W. It includes the type of literature research with a qualitative descriptive approach based on the study of the sociology of literature. Data was collected through reading and note-taking techniques which produced data in the form of dialogue or monologue and narration from the data source of the novel entitled "Seandainya Aku Boleh Memilih" by Mira W. This research succeeded in deciphering the types of social deviance from the novel, namely sexual deviance, crime, and lifestyle deviance. While the factors that cause these social deviations are the inability to absorb cultural norms and deviant learning processes.

Full textAbstract:
Background: Positive deviance (PD) is an asset-based social and behavior change communication strategy, utilizing successful outliers within a specific context. It has been applied to tackling major public health problems but not adolescent anemia. Objective: The study, first of its kind, used PD to improve compliance to adolescent anemia control program in Jharkhand, India, where anemia prevalence in adolescent girls is 70%, and program compliance is low. Methods: With leadership of state government, the study was designed and implemented by a multidisciplinary 42 member PD team, in Khunti district, in 2014. Participatory appraisals were undertaken with 434 adolescent girls, 18 frontline workers, 15 teachers, and 751 community leaders/parents/relatives. Stakeholders were interviewed to identify positive deviants and PD determinants across 17 villages. Results: Perceived benefits of iron folic acid tablet and nutritional care during adolescence are low. Positive deviants exist among adolescent girls (26 of 434), villages (2 of 17), and schools (2 of 17). Positive deviant adolescent girls consumed variety of iron-rich foods and in higher frequency, consumed iron folic acid tablets, and practiced recommended personal hygiene behaviors. Deviant practices in schools included supervision of students during tablet distribution among others. Conclusion: Government-led PD approach uncovered local solutions and provided a forum for government functionaries to listen to and dialogue with, and an opportunity to adapt the program according to the needs of the affected communities, who are missing partners in program design and management.

Full textAbstract:
This study examines value similarities between deviant youth on the one hand and mainstream society on the other rather than value differences. The classic sociological research on deviance by Matza and Sykes supports this approach, given that their investigations focused more on similarities between subterranean values and the values of normal society. The General Social Survey of Spain (2016) includes 17 indicators for deviant behavior, which is the dependent variable. Likewise, it is used to define social capital and the rest of the different independent variables of the analysis. In conclusion, whereas social capital and social values were absent as causes of juvenile delinquency, the following variables explained significantly the deviant behavior among Spanish youth: tolerance towards deviance, adolescent experience, and sex. This suggests that there are at least two possible keys to improve or avoid the problem of juvenile crime: prevention or awareness programmes and new critical feminist criminology point of view.

Two field experiments using 828 “lost letters” tested the hypothesis that altruism would be higher in small urban communities or towns than in cities unless the person needing help was a social deviant. The effect of deviance did alter return rates in both studies. In Study A, the effect of location and social deviance on altruistic responses from cities was generally greater than from smaller communities, except when the person in need of help was affiliated with the highly deviant prostitute conditions. In Study B, altruistic responses from cities were generally less than those from small towns even when the needy person was affiliated with the Communist or needle-exchange conditions.

Full textAbstract:
Types of deviant (deviant) behavior are presented. It is revealed that the socially negative nature of deviations is destructive both for the individual and for the environment, but it is this type of deviant behavior that arouses the greatest interest of researchers and is more often considered in the scientific literature. The definition of the concept of "deviation" is given. It is noted that the main factors that predetermine deviations in human behavior are the level of social consciousness, morality, consolidation of the system of social regulations in society. In the course of the study of theoretical material it was found that a number of scientists characterize a norm as "a historically established in a particular society limit", "a measure of acceptable behavior", some properties originally inherent in most people, a standard of behavior, these are norm-ideals, as the level of interiorization of norms in different social environments has significant differences, and norm-ideals (system of basic values) are globalized, they are difficult to apply to specific social objects. It is proposed to consider the norm in three different meanings: statistical, functional (individual) and ideal; in laws, traditions, customs the social norm finds its embodiment (support), that is, in everything that has become a habit, firmly embedded in everyday life, in the way of life of the majority population, supported by public opinion, plays the role of a "natural regulator" of social and interpersonal relations. It has been revealed that some scholars are inclined to see moral norms as a kind of "instructions" that "ensure the correct operation of the human machine".

Full textAbstract:
The paper investigates the relationship between the phenomenon of conceptual art and various manifestations of social deviance in the area of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. The first part discusses the general relationship between conceptual art and social deviance, while the second part presents the socio-political context in which Yugoslav conceptual art developed during the 1970s. The third part is dedicated to recognizing and analyzing several socially deviant forms that can be noticed in connection with the mentioned segment of Yugoslav art from the 1970s. Special attention is paid to the category of deviant phenomena which we defined as “anti-system deviations.” In the final, fourth part, the peculiarities of socially deviant Yugoslav conceptual art manifestations are noticed. Among the more significant insights, the considerable presence of anti-system deviations within the activities of one part of the Yugoslav conceptual scene was emphasized. The ambivalence of the Yugoslav regime in terms of its attitude towards the artistic neo-avant-garde was also identified: on the one hand, a significantly more liberal attitude compared to the Eastern Bloc regimes, but also readiness for decisive persecution in case of open encroachment on the ruling order. As one of the primary conclusions, it was noticed that Yugoslav conceptual art (following the fate of Yugoslavia as a state “between East and West”), in terms of social deviance, was also halfway between conceptualists from Western countries and those from the Eastern Bloc. In that sense, the socio-political regime in the SFRY provided a much higher degree of personal and artistic freedoms than was the case in most socialist states, but at the same time vigorously sanctioned anti-systemic and anti-state actions to ensure the ruling order.

Full textAbstract:
This article deals with the current issue to develop the phenomena and processes, which characterize the transition to new social reality in a global course for the universal digitization of human life. Referring to the existing polemical and negative discourse in the academic circles as to digital technology influencing man, the author’s focus turns to the question of how digital technology influences an average member of society. To answer this question, one should take into account not only “liquid” social reality, but digital trends. The paper presents the author’s definition of theirs. Further, the author refers to deviance study as part of sociological knowledge through which it is possible to make a comprehensive analysis of the social destruction. By using a historiographic analysis it is concluded that, not rejecting the described theories, in the transition to digital social reality there is a need for specifying and conceptualizing the theory of deviant behaviour adequate to the changing times in society. The reasons given for deviant behaviour the author provides the fundamental and system-creating processes of society as a whole. Among the reasons of no small important analyzed by the author, for instance, the impact of globalization or the substantial transformations of science and education, the changes in happening to modern man under the influence of the digital environment are emphasized. The author notes that modern man has new social-psychological traits, conditions, characteristics. The paper gives their description classified according to their influence on the member of society. When being more approximately studied by researchers, these new conditions, reactions and traits blend in the new forms of deviance. The article also theorises the author’s definition of digital deviance (digital deviant behaviour), its peculiarities and typology. An empirical study on measuring digital deviance by computing the relevant indicators is intended to be conducted.

AbstractAdolescent association with deviant and delinquent friends was examined for its roots in coercive parent–teen interactions and its links to functional difficulties extending beyond delinquent behavior and into adulthood. A community sample of 184 adolescents was followed from age 13 to age 27, with collateral data obtained from close friends, classmates, and parents. Even after accounting for adolescent levels of delinquent and deviant behavior, association with deviant friends was predicted by coercive parent–teen interactions and then linked to declining functioning with peers during adolescence and greater internalizing and externalizing symptoms and poorer overall adjustment in adulthood. Results are interpreted as suggesting that association with deviant friends may disrupt a core developmental task—establishing positive relationships with peers—with implications that extend well beyond deviancy-training effects.

We explored the effect of leader–member exchange social comparison (LMXSC) on employee deviant behavior within a Chinese context. We modified the measures for use in the Chinese context and used a multisource survey to collect data from employees in Chinese companies. The results of analysis of responses from a sample of 203 supervisor-subordinate dyads showed that LMXSC was negatively related to organizational deviance and supervisor-directed deviance. Procedural justice mediated the relationship between LMXSC and organizational deviance, and interpersonal justice mediated the relationship between LMXSC and supervisor-directed deviance. Furthermore, the negative relationship between interpersonal justice and supervisor-directed deviance was weaker for subordinates working with supervisors who had a higher degree of organizational embodiment. The results implied that supervisors need to balance the double-edged sword effect of LMXSC as well as strengthen their organizational embodiment.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the relationship between diminished employee well-being and interpersonal deviance. Design/methodology/approach In a survey, 380 employees from 107 organizations were asked about their psychological and social well-beings. Participants reported their experiences of irritation, depression and anxiety for psychological well-being. A modified scale of social well-being captured participants’ scores on social integration and social acceptance. Respondents also self-reported incidents of interpersonal deviance against coworkers. Findings The results demonstrate that only irritation, not depression or anxiety, was positively related to interpersonal deviance. Socially accepting individuals were less likely to engage in deviant acts against their coworkers. Furthermore, respondents scoring high on both neuroticism and depression were reporting more acts of interpersonal deviance. Research limitations/implications Based on these findings, the role of intent in the study of workplace deviance is discussed. Practical implications The findings of this study suggest that diminished well-being can be a catalyst for other negative outcomes in the workplace. Management should be concerned with the affective state of employees as the experiences of one person may translate into experiences for others. Given the complexity of human experiences, decision makers in organizations should consider emotional state and experiences in developing practices for deviance prevention. Attention and intervention initiatives devoted to improving well-being and social health of employees might be more effective than discipline policies. Originality/value Deviant behaviors are often conceptualized as intentional acts. The findings of this research paper provide some evidence that factors other than harmful intend may motivate transgressions against coworkers.

Full textAbstract:
Drawing on the cultural collectivism–individualism literature, we predict that Japanese students, compared to Americans, tend to commit fewer deviant acts because they are less inclined toward individualistic value orientations, risk seeking, negative emotionality, and subjective stress; because they are exposed to greater parental discipline and have stronger parental attachment; because they have weaker peer attachment and associate with peers who react less favorably to deviance; because they have stronger bonds to conventional society and greater social support from significant others; and because they are exposed to fewer deviance opportunities. Analyses of comparable data from college students in Japan ( N = 469) and the United States ( N = 594) provided mixed support for our predictions. As expected, Japanese students committed fewer deviant acts during their high school days. Furthermore, consistent with expectations, Japanese students had lower scores on all four individual factors, the two peer factors, and the environmental factor of deviance opportunities. After controlling for these seven factors, the effect of Japan versus the United States decreased by one third. The decrease was not greater at least partly because, in Japan, compared to the United States, risk seeking had significantly less influence on student deviance, and subjective stress had significantly more influence on student deviance.

This study addresses two central research questions: (1) are children with incarcerated parents (CIP) more deviant than nonimpacted peers and (2) is a regional mentoring social intervention program effective for CIP? Two sources of data were used, longitudinal data gathered from 173 children involved with a regional branch of Big Brothers Big Sisters (BBBS) and a sample of children from the Fragile Families (FF) and Child Wellbeing Study. Based on the BBBS data, results find that CIP were more deviant than nonimpacted peers. Unexpectedly, children involved with BBBS reported more deviance after a year of social intervention, compared with children from FF.

Beyond assuring biological survival, every society must have structures that nurture the young, prepare them for social roles and responsibilities, and that successfully integrate them with a reasonable level of motivation into ongoing patterns of activity. Societies must also have institutions that reinforce a sense of personal commitment to everyday affairs: the lack of a stake in social processes contributes to personal demoralisation and deviant behaviour. Deviance may also occur because of biological vulnerability or handicap, because socialisation fails, because demands exceed capacities, or as a result of sub-group identification being in conflict with dominant values. Psychiatric disorders are a sub-set of deviant behaviour.

Full textAbstract:
Theoretically, western sociologists discussed the topic involving khamr drinking in the context of social deviance related to addiction and the causes of drinking that harm others, such as accident driving, violence, and crime. The interpretation of deviance is up to the norm of certain groups in society’s culture because the discussion of the social system is limited to the interaction between humans and humans only. However, social deviance from the Islamic viewpoint is totally different because it is discussed based on the Islamic social system that involves the element of tauḥīd (interaction between humans with God, whose name is Allah). In Islam, drinking is considered deviant not by society but by Allah as the source of Muslims’ norms. Fundamentally, the studies on khamr, from the Islamic studies, are on fiqh discussion. This article offers a sociological view of khamr drinking by having the fiqh of khamr as a framework to guide the perspective. Therefore, this research will provide other researchers with another viewpoint of deviance on khamr drinking.

Social deviance conducted by students becomes a problem in education. The act of deviance is committed in the form of violations of the existing rules in the school. This behavior affects the disruption of teaching and learning process activities even also affects other students and teachers as well. There are many cases of misbehavior and indiscipline that these students have done, and in fact the behavior is done repeatedly. This paper examines the causes of deviant behavior and finds out how the process of social remedy conducted in a senior high school with pseudonym ‘Y’ (SMA Negeri Y) as a solution implemented by schools to overcome this problem. The data found shows the reason the students do the deviance is due to the influence of the surrounding environment which is the peer pressure, so they can be seen as trendy or ‘hip’. Other reasons include uninteresting teaching methods which results in ennui on students in learning the courses. The conducted social remedy is expected to be a solution of behavioral deviance that students commit, even for repeated deviant behavior. The stages of social remedy are: (1) the first stage, advices from the teachers are given to the students who conduct the deviance (2) the second stage, write and issue the disciplinary letter for parents (DL) (3) the third stage, the students write a letter of agreement in front of their parents (4) the fourth stage, a letter of agreement with stamp duty is made, witnessed by the parents and signed by the parents and the students (5) the fifth stage, further action is handled by the principal and the principal decides whether the students should be scolded or expelled

In recent years, public discourse has largely embraced the idea that persons with addictions have a “brain disease,” and ought to be treated medically rather than judicially. This article first argues that this social shift is mostly the result of middle- and upper-class whites being among the addicted. The medical language is deployed so that such persons avoid the stigma of “deviance” commonly linked to addiction. Second, this article argues for a Christian “holy deviance,” whereby Christians become deviant by going out to those who are already marked by society as deviant, letting the latter know in word and deed that they are loved.

Full textAbstract:
Although customer aggression has been found to affect the well-being of employees in the service sector, few prior researchers have examined its effect on employees' workplace behavior. Thus, we examined the effect of customer aggression on positive and negative workplace deviant behaviors in service contexts, and explored whether psychological ownership moderates these relationships. Participants were 362 bankers in the financial sector within South Korea, and we used structural equation modeling to test the hypotheses. Results showed that customer aggression increased both destructive and constructive deviance. Further, psychological ownership moderated the relationship between customer aggression and constructive deviance, but not between customer aggression and destructive deviance. That is, customer aggression increased organizational and interpersonal constructive deviance among employees with high psychological ownership, suggesting that these employees were more likely to tackle customer aggression in an innovative manner.

The article presents a historical and ontological analysis of modern Russian deviantology as a socially significant interdisciplinary field of knowledge. The scientific and historical context of deviantology is described. The categorical apparatus is justified. The author reveals the attributive signs of deviance and deviant behavior in the paradigm of the integrative-convergent model of interaction between the individual and the environment. The thesis about the formation of deviant identity through selective negative and aggressive identifications with significant parental figures is put forward. The problems of interdisciplinary dissociation and linear functionalism of deviantological knowledge are emphasized. The challenges of the time are described, and the prospects for development are determined.

Full textAbstract:
Scientific communities maintain respected authority on matters related to the natural world; however, there are instances where significant portions of the population hold beliefs contrary to the scientific consensus. These beliefs have generally been studied as the product of scientific illiteracy. This project reframes the issue as one of social deviance from the consensus of scientific communities. Using young-earth creationism and global warming skepticism as case studies, I suggest that consensus perception in light of public scientific deviance is a valuable dialectical framework, and demonstrate its utility using logistic regression analyses of the 2006 Pew Religion and Public Life Survey. Believing there is no scientific consensus is one of the most important factors in predicting scientifically deviant beliefs, along with political and religious effects, eclipsing education. The inability of consensus perception to explain all variation in scientific deviance lends further credence to the framework, suggesting future directions in the study of this phenomenon.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine abusive supervision and public service motivation (PSM) as antecedents of deviant workplace behaviours. Design/methodology/approach The study was conducted in a cross-sectional research design with survey data from 150 employees in the public, private, and non-profit sector in Germany and the USA. Findings Abusive supervision is positively associated with employee deviance, whereas PSM is negatively related to deviant behaviours. The employment sector moderates the negative relationship between PSM and employee deviance such that this relationship is stronger in the public and non-profit sector. Research limitations/implications Limitations arise from the convenience sampling approach and the cross-sectional nature of the data set. Practical implications Human resource managers should consider behavioural integrity in the attraction, selection, and training of both supervisors and subordinates. Private organisations can address the needs of strongly public service motivated employees by integrating associated goals and values into organisational missions and policies. Originality/value This is the first study to introduce PSM into research on employee deviance. It shows that a pro-social motivation can drive anti-social behaviours when employees with high levels of PSM are members of profit-seeking organisations.

Full textAbstract:
The current study examines the cross-cultural applicability of Akers’ social learning theory in explaining why Japanese commit fewer deviant acts than Americans. It is predicted that deviance would be less common in Japan because Japanese have less favorable attitudes toward deviance, which in turn are attributable to less favorable peer reactions to deviance. Analyses of comparable survey data from college students in Japan ( N = 583) and the United States ( N = 615) provide mixed support for our arguments. As expected, Japanese students had less favorable attitudes toward deviance because they had peers who reacted less favorably to deviance. Contrary to expectation, however, even after controlling for student attitudes toward deviance and peer reactions to deviance, the initially large difference between the two samples in student deviance remained significant. This was at least partly because, in Japan, compared with the United States, peer reactions and student attitudes had significantly less influence on student deviance.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose – Research has consistently shown that organizational constraints lead to deviant behavioral reactions. Although many studies have investigated personality variables as moderators of such predictors of deviance, considerably less research has considered cross-level moderators of these effects. The purpose of this paper is to draw on several related theories to test team civility climate as a cross-level moderator of the organizational constraints – interpersonal deviance relationship. Design/methodology/approach – Data were collected using paper-and-pencil surveys from 239 employees nested within 68 work teams. Teams were employed in various industries including healthcare, insurance, manufacturing/engineering, and financial services. Findings – Results from hierarchical linear modeling analyses demonstrated that the effect of organizational constraints on interpersonal deviance varied significantly across teams. In addition, the positive relationship between organizational constraints and interpersonal deviance was attenuated in teams with a high civility climate. Practical implications – Organizational constraints may be difficult to eliminate in many workplaces. However, results suggest that by developing a positive civility climate, teams can help prevent deviant behaviors that may be associated with experienced constraints. Originality/value – This is one of the first studies to examine civility climate as a shared property of the team and as a cross-level moderator. Findings from this research contribute to theories of deviant organizational behavior by highlighting the critical role of variables emanating from levels of analysis beyond the individual.

A widely held view on the purpose of criminal law is that it is designed to maintain social order. Assuming this view to be correct, how does criminal law achieve its purpose? The standard answer is by deterring crimes through the threat of penalties, and by incapacitating or rehabilitating criminals so that they cannot or will not engage in future crimes. Sociologists, however, have a somewhat different answer: criminal law maintains social order by branding deviant behavior as criminal. Society, it is argued, is constructed through opposition and contrast: it creates and preserves its identity, its distinct structure and unique shape, by emphasizing the differences between its own characteristics and practices and the characteristics and practices of the Other, the deviant. Deviance, in this view, is essentially a relative phenomenon. The definition of deviance, which changes from era to era and from place to place, is just that characteristic which society designates to establish, through it and in contrast to it, its identity and boundaries. Whatever the society, the deviant in that society is one who “represents the forces excluded by the group's boundaries,” informing society “as it were, what the evil looks like, what shapes the evil can assume.” In doing so, the deviant shows society “the differences between kinds of experience which belong within the group and kinds of experience which belong outside it.”

Youths who have deviant and delinquent friends are more likely to engage in delinquency. Interestingly, most quantitative studies of the association between deviant peers and deviant behavior have assumed that all peer connections have similar effects. Yet, it is possible that peer influence may vary depending on the characteristics of peers. Using social network data from two waves of the National Longitudinal Survey of Adolescent to Adult Health, this study examines the impact of same-sex and cross-sex friendships on deviance and delinquency in adolescent networks. The findings demonstrate that peer association is a significant predictor of delinquency for males, although its effects depend on the gender of boys’ friends. For females, by contrast, the link between associating with deviant peers and behavior is minimal once the stable characteristics of individuals are taken into account. Rather, social bonds are the most important predictors of delinquency.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractDue to a hegemony of psychology, the phenomenon of addicted gaming tends to be conceptualized as a chronic illness. Taking a sociological perspective requires reframing the phenomenon: As deviant behavior, and therefore as a behavior, that goes against behavioral expectations of social groups. Such change of perspective raises new questions and sheds light on aspects of the phenomenon that have been unstudied so far. The article takes one step in this direction and applies the concept of neutralization as a heuristic to study how gamers classified as addicted make sense of their deviant gaming practices. Analyses of biographical-narrative interviews with addicted gamers indicate that they use five neutralization techniques in order to carry out their deviant practices without generally questioning social norms, these are rejection of individual responsibility, trivializing revaluation, positive revaluation, revaluation of deviance as self-determined choice and condemnation of instances of social control.

Publishers of news information are keen to amplify the reach of their content by making it as re-sharable as possible on social media. In this work we study the relationship between the concept of social deviance and the re-sharing of news headlines by network gatekeepers on Twitter. Do network gatekeepers have the same predilection for selecting socially deviant news items as professionals? Through a study of 8,000 news items across 8 major news outlets in the U.S. we predominately find that network gatekeepers re-share news items more often when they reference socially deviant events. At the same time we find and discuss exceptions for two outlets, suggesting a more complex picture where newsworthiness for networked gatekeepers may be moderated by other effects such as topicality or varying motivations and relationships with their audience.

BackgroundThe positive deviance approach seeks to identify and learn from those who demonstrate exceptional performance. This study sought to explore how multidisciplinary teams deliver exceptionally safe care on medical wards for older people.MethodsA qualitative positive deviance study was conducted on four positively deviant and four slightly-above-average matched comparator wards, which had been identified using routinely collected NHS Safety Thermometer data. In total, 70 multidisciplinary staff participated in eight focus groups to explore staff perceptions about how their teams deliver safe patient care. A thematic analysis was conducted in two stages: first to identify the tools, processes, strategies, and cultural and social contexts that facilitated safety across all wards; and second to generate hypotheses about the characteristics that facilitated ‘positively deviant’ patient care.ResultsBased on identifiable qualitative differences between the positively deviant and comparison wards, 14 characteristics were hypothesised to facilitate exceptionally safe care on medical wards for older people. This paper explores five positively deviant characteristics that healthcare professionals considered to be most salient. These included the relational aspects of teamworking, specifically regarding staff knowing one another and working together in truly integrated multidisciplinary teams. The cultural and social context of positively deviant wards was perceived to influence the way in which practical tools (eg, safety briefings and bedside boards) were implemented.ConclusionThis study exemplifies that there are no ‘silver bullets’ to achieving exceptionally safe patient care on medical wards for older people. Healthcare leaders should encourage truly integrated multidisciplinary ward teams where staff know each other well and work as a team. Focusing on these underpinning characteristics may facilitate exceptional performances across a broad range of safety outcomes.

Abstract This paper explores the relationship between deviance and esotericism, particularly as this relationship relates to the emergence of new religious movements and the processes of social accommodation and resistance. Applying sociological models for the study of deviance, I show how emergent Catholics use a variety of accommodation strategies to better fit into Roman religious expectations, constructing a public face to their worship along with ancestral ties. As they do this, the emergent Catholics dissociate themselves from other Christians, like groups with gnostic orientations, whom they have marked as different from themselves and a liability for the survival of Christianity. They begin to argue that these “other” Christians are the deviant ones, not themselves. Their willingness to Romanize certain aspects of their religion reduces the tensile relationship between their new religion and the surrounding society, increasing their ability to attract and maintain new recruits. To make matters more complicated, gnostic groups largely resist accommodation to Roman religious expectations, a strategy that powers their countercultural critique of the hegemony of Rome. They esoterize their groups by privatizing and converting their deviance into secret social capital. The choice to maintain their deviance by limiting access to their internal social networks affects their ability to recruit, grow, and sustain their communities in the long term. The social politics of deviance goes a long way to explain the rise of Catholicism and its domination over other forms of Christianity.
