Abstract
Few topics have excited more interest in contemporary behavioral science than the causes of deviance. The etiology of deviance has been approached within diverse theoretical frameworks and using a range of methodological orientations. A not inconsiderable part of the literature on this topic deals with the relationships among diverse patterns of deviance: Some deviant patterns are antecedents of particular deviant outcomes, while other deviant patterns are common antecedents of a spectrum of deviant responses; some deviant patterns either have direct effects on or are influenced directly by other deviant patterns, or both affect and are affected; the influence of patterns of deviance on other patterns is often mediated by their effects on intervening variables; and deviant adaptations interact with other variables (including other deviant patterns) to moderate the influence of these adaptations on still other deviant outcomes.
