Primary socialization theory explains deviance by examining norm transmission in families and schools. Research supports this, highlighting family influence and personality traits like rebelliousness in understanding substance use and deviance.

Area of Science:

  • Social Psychology
  • Developmental Psychology
  • Criminology

Background:

  • Primary socialization theory posits that societal norms are transmitted through family, school, and peer groups during youth.
  • Prosocial norms are more likely transmitted via strong bonds with healthy families or schools.
  • Personality traits influence deviance only if they disrupt family or school socialization.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate primary socialization theory's hypotheses regarding deviance and substance use.
  • To investigate the etiological roles of social factors, personality, and psychopathology.
  • To extend the theory by examining family influences, rebelliousness, and impulse control.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of social factors, personality traits, and psychopathologies.

  • Research focused on etiological factors for deviance and substance use, indirectly testing primary socialization theory.
  • Emphasis on family influences, rebelliousness, and impulse control.
  • Main Results:

    • Research largely supported primary socialization theory's hypotheses.
    • Confirmed the significant etiological role of family influences in deviance and substance use.
    • Highlighted the importance of rebelliousness and impulse control.

    Conclusions:

    • Primary socialization theory provides valuable insights into deviance and substance use.
    • The theory could be enhanced by addressing adolescent transitions, identity formation, youth culture, 'maturing out' of deviance, and gender differences.
    • Future large-scale studies should test hypotheses, including genetic factors' impact on deviant personality and norm transmission.
