influenced by a variety of social, personal, economic, and other factors.

The latent trait theory proposes that certain persons have a personal attribute

5.JAVIER, MARK Phrenology, Phrenology was one of the first to propose that instead of vindictive punishments
that would not deter criminals, they should be rehabilitated. Only through

chance of crime. Negative emotions such as dissatisfaction and rage are triggered
by these tensions. These feelings put pressure on people to take action, and one
option is to commit a crime.

18.GONZALES, Cultural Deviance Shaw and McKay claimed that delinquent or criminal behavior is caused by the
transmission of cultural norms that lead to criminal or delinquent behavior.

CHARLES NOAH Theory, Delinquent behavior, according to Miller, evolved as a result of "focal concerns," or
a group of topics with which the subjects are deeply emotionally invested, and

These delinquent subcultures, according to Cohen, are defined by their deviant
