DEVIANCE: UNIT 6
 
PSYCHOLOGICAL CRIMINOLOGY
 
Psychologically-based criminologists explain criminal behavior as the consequence of individual
factors, such as negative early childhood experiences and inadequate socialization, that result in
criminal thinking patterns and/or incomplete cognitive development.
Focus on 
individual 
problems
Psychological theories of criminal behavior have had the most direct influ­ence on probation and parole
practice.
“Rehabilitation” processes  designed from one or more psychological theories.

SOCIAL LEARNING  THEORY 
(1 OF 3)
 
 
Bandura (1971)
 
Social Learning Theory 
is a cognitive and behavioral theory that explains human
behavior through the interaction of personal (cognitive), environmental, and behavioral
factors in a social setting.
A person’s behavior is influenced by his or her environment as well as inherent personal traits
A person’s environment is influenced by the presence of and interaction with that person’s
behaviors and traits
 Personal traits are influenced by both behavior and the environment.
(Reference #3)
 
SOCIAL LEARNING THEORY 
(2 OF 3)
 
Observational learning comprises four distinct cognitive stages:
Attention
 - actively observing the behavioral model
Retention
 - storing new information to be retrieved at a later time
Reproduction
 - recreating modeled behavior in order to practice it
Motivation
 - feeling compelled to continue the behavior in the future
(Reference #3)
 
SOCIAL LEARNING THEORY 
(3 OF 3)
 
Albert Bandura (1960s)
Social learning theory 
- aggressive behavior is learned and focused on the
process of learning through observation or by example either intentionally or
accidentally
Individuals will learn how to act, feel, behave based on what they learn from
watching others.

PSYCHOANALYTIC PERSPECTIVE
 
PSYCHOANALYTIC CRIMINOLOGY
 
Psychoanalytic theories 
assume that negative early
childhood experiences may increase the probability of
criminal behavior.
 
(Reference #1)
 
CRIMINALITY PERSONALITY 
(1 OF 2)
 
Assume that offenders have developed criminal thinking patterns that are
distinct from those of non-offenders.
“The root causes of crime are not...Social issues [high unemployment, bad
schools] but deeply ingrained features of the human personality and its early
experiences.
Low intelligence, an impulsive personality, and a lack of empathy for others
are leading characteristics of people at risk for becoming offenders
(Reference #1)
 
CRIMINALITY PERSONALITY 
(2 OF 2)
 
Hans Eysenck (1987) theorizes that criminal behavior may be a function of both
personality differences (i.e., Offenders are more likely to be neurotic and extroverted)
and  
conditioning,
 Some individuals are simply more difficult to “condition” than others.
We “develop a conscience through conditioning,” antisocial behavior is more likely
when this process breaks down.
 
(Reference #1)
 
PERSONALITY THEORIES 
(1 OF 2)
 
PERSONALITY THEORIES 
(2 OF 2)
 
Personality
 - individual differences in characteristic patterns of thinking, feeling,
and behaving
Personality traits
- 
A tendency to behave, feel, perceive, and think in relatively consistent
ways across time and across situations in which the trait may be manifest.
Personality profiles in childhood generally are very similar profiles in adulthood.
Individuals who become more dominant, conscientious, interpersonally sensitive, and
emotionally stable across time – become a functioning member of society
(Reference #4)
 
TRAIT THEORY 
(1 OF 4)
 
The Big Five Personality Traits 
(OCEAN)
The Big Five Personality Inventory contains 50 statements, ten questions that address
each personality factor, and each response is indicated on a five-point Likert scale which
ranges from “strongly disagree” to “strongly agree.” This test scores each factor on a
scale of 0 to 40.
These facets help to define and expand on each factor and provide a fuller picture of
the individual’s personality.

Now let’s look at the different facets
(Reference #4)
 
TRAIT THEORY 
(2 OF 4)
 
Openness to experience
High scorers
Like to learn new things and have new experiences display traits such as imagination, artistic
interests, depth of emotion, willingness to experiment, intellectual curiosity, and tolerance
for diversity.
Low scorers
Traditional, down to earth, conservative, and practical.
(Reference #4)
 
TRAIT THEORY 
(3 OF 4)
 
 Conscientiousness 
- sense of competence orderliness, sense of responsibility, achievement striving, self-
discipline, and deliberateness
High Scores
reliable and prompt, disciplined, efficient, well organized, and having a strong sense of duty.
Low scorers
can be described as spontaneous, disorganized, preferring flexible plans, and disliking precise details.
 
 Extraversion 
- warmth, gregariousness, assertiveness, activity level, excitement seeking, and positive
emotions
High Scorers (Extroverts)
get energy from interacting with others, outgoing, friendly, assertive, like working with others, and enjoy
leadership roles
Low scores (introverts)
get energy from themselves, reserved, formal, serious, quiet, prefer working alone, and avoid leadership roles.
(Reference #4)
 
TRAIT THEORY 
(4 OF 4)
 
 Agreeableness 
- trust in others, sincerity altruism, compliance, modesty, and sympathy
High Scorers
friendly, cooperative, and compassionate, warm, eager to please, and good-natured.
Low scorers
distant, hard-headed, skeptical, competitive, and proud.
 
Neuroticism
 - anxiety, angry hostility, moodiness/contentment, self-consciousness, self-indulgence, and
sensitivity to stress
individual’s emotional stability and degree of negative emotions.
High scorers
prone to worry, easily upset, and experiencing negative emotional reactions and feelings of
anxiety.
Low scorers
relaxed, resilient, calm, and not easily upset in stressful situations.
(Reference #4)
 
THE PSYCHOPATH
 
Nathaniel Thorton (1951-1952)
Psychopathic personality 
- apparent absence of 
common moral and ethical sensibility, 
or the
ability to make a fundamental distinction between what is right and what is wrong according to
the generally accepted criteria adopted by society
Additional characteristics
Eccentricities of one sort or another
Indifference to social demands and unawareness of social responsibilities
Flagrant disregard of the needs and rights of other people
Excessive selfishness and overweening egocentricity
Failures in attempts at adaptation
Vagrancy, instability, shiftlessness
(Reference #2)
 
ANTISOCIAL PERSONALITY THEORY (1 OF 2)
 
Sociopathy
 - focused on the behavioral aspects of the disorder
Psychopathy
 -  looked into the cognitive and personality traits
Antisocial personality disorder 
- mental illness that often prevents people
from conforming to social norms and facing negative impacts on their
daily lives as a result.
Inability to sustain consistent work behavior, lack of ability to respond as a responsible parent,
failure to accept social norms with respect to the law, inability to maintain enduring attachment
to a sexual partner, irritability and aggressiveness, failure to honor financial obligations, failure to
plan ahead, disregard for honesty, and recklessness
(Reference #6)
ANTISOCIAL PERSONALITY THEORY (2 OF 2)
Most people diagnosed with the disorder are being treated against their will,
most likely because they are in 
prison
. 
The recidivism rate for people diagnosed with antisocial personality disorder is quite
high, and many forms of therapy may not be sufficient to reduce antisocial behaviors
and personality traits. 
(Reference #6) (Attribution #1)
 
FRUSTRATION-AGGRESSION THEORY
 
Aggression 
- a reaction to environmental conditions, namely those conditions provoking
frustration.
Frustration
 - an interference with the occurrence of an instigated goal- violence and aggression
response at its proper time in the behavior sequence" 
(reference #5)
Frustration-aggression hypothesis 
- aggression is a response to frustration and it always
emerges from frustration.
"frustration always leads to some form of aggression"
(Reference #5)
 
CRIMINAL PROFILE
FRUSTRATION-AGGRESSION THEORY
LT. WILLIAM CALLEY
 
 
March 16th , 1968
The massacre of Vietnamese civilians, including women and children, at My Lai On.
Found guilty of killing 22 civilians   -  10 year sentence
Following the frustration aggression theory -  questionnaires indicated that the level of
aggression of the participants increased due to the fear and frustration provoked by the war.
"War is not caused by human aggressiveness, or that people fight in war because they are
aggressive" but rather the frustration emerges from situations of violence and war, which
then leads to aggression.
(Reference #5)
ATTACHMENT THEORY 
(1 OF 3)
Attachment
 is a deep and enduring emotional bond that
connects one person to another across time and space
One person may have an attachment to an individual which is not shared.
Attachment is characterized by specific behaviors in children, such as
seeking proximity to the attachment figure when upset or threatened
John Bowlby (1958)
Attachment Theory 
explains how the parent-child relationship emerges
and influences subsequent development
Harry Harlow's monkeys – attachment experiment (See video)
(Reference #8) (Attribution #2)
 
ATTACHMENT THEORY 
(2 OF 3)
 
ATTACHMENT THEORY 
(3 OF 3)
 
1.
Secure attachment 
- children feel confident that the attachment figure will be available to meet their needs.
Attachment figure used as a safe base to explore the environment and seek the attachment figure in times of
distress.
2.
Anxious-avoidant attachment 
- insecure avoidant children do not orientate to their attachment figure while
investigating the environment. They are very independent of the attachment figure both physically and
emotionally.
They do not seek contact with the attachment figure when distressed.
Have a caregiver who is insensitive and rejecting of their needs.
The child will commonly exhibit clingy and dependent behavior, but will be rejecting of the attachment figure when
they engage in interaction.
3.
Anxious-resistant attachment 
- child fails to develop any feelings of security from the attachment figure
Difficulty moving away from the attachment figure to explore novel surroundings.
When distressed they are difficult to soothe and are not comforted by interaction with the attachment figure.
This behavior results from an inconsistent level of response to their needs from the primary caregiver.
(Reference #9)
 
COGNITIVE THEORIES
 
MORAL DEVELOPMENT THEORY, CRIMINAL MINDSET
 
MORAL DEVELOPMENT THEORY
 
Cognitive development theories 
link criminal behavior to failure to develop a moral
judgement.
Morality
 - recognition of the distinction between good and evil or between right and
wrong; respect for and obedience to the rules of right conduct; the mental disposition
or characteristic of behaving in a manner intended to produce good results
Kohlberg observed that we learn morality from those we interact with on a regular
basis—our fam­ily, friends, and others in the community.
(Reference #1 & 10)
 
MORAL DEVELOPMENT THEORY 
(2 OF 2)
 
Kohlberg found that moral reasoning (i.e., Our capacity “to do the right thing”) develops in three
stages:
1.
Preconventional 
stage
, children (age 9-11) think, “if I steal, what are my chances of getting
caught and punished?”
2.
Conventional stage
, adoles­cents (age 12-19) think “it is illegal to steal and therefore I
should not steal, under any circumstances.”
3.
Post-conventional stage
 
(adults over 20 years old),  critically exam­ine customs and social
rules according to their own sense of universal human rights, moral principles, and duties
 
CRIMINAL PROFILE – MORAL DEVELOPMENT THEORY
CARLO GAMBINO CRIME FAMILY
 
2017
New York
Charging four defendants with narcotics trafficking, loansharking and firearms offenses.
The defendants—
Damiano Zummo, an acting captain in the Bonanno crime family
Salvatore Russo, an associate of the Bonanno crime family
Paul Semplice, a member of the Gambino crime family
Paul Ragusa, an associate of the Bonanno and Gambino crime family
Moral development theory argues that individuals learn their morals from their close friends and families. Being involved in a
family of criminal, and friends who are like family, can effect the way in which an individuals morals are developed over time.

Psychologically-based criminologists attribute criminal behavior to individual factors such as negative early childhood experiences and inadequate socialization, leading to criminal thinking patterns and incomplete cognitive development. Probation and parole practices are influenced by rehabilitation processes designed from psychological theories, particularly Social Learning Theory and Psychoanalytic Perspective. These theories emphasize the importance of personal, environmental, and behavioral factors in shaping human behavior, highlighting the impact of observational learning stages and the influence of early childhood experiences on criminal behavior.
