Q:Which of the following serve as examples of deviant behaviors?
|
| A | | drinking alcohol in heavy amounts at a bar |
| B | | using vulgar language loudly in a religious institution |
| C | | walking in the nude at a nude beach |
| D | | walking barefoot at home |
The correct answer is B. Hopefully, this question is fairly intuitive. Deviant behaviors, as the name suggests, are behaviors the deviate from social norms. C and D are clearly in line with social norms, though D might not make sense from people of eastern cultures. A can also be seen as a social norm, since people often get drunk in bars. However, vulgar language is generally frowned upon by most religions and not allowed in their respective religious institutions.
