Abstract
Why some people come to hold socially approved values and why others, consciously or unconsciously, choose in some degree to violate these values are questions addressed by scholars of both moral development and deviance. These queries are often posed in a framework that includes analysis of the learning process, that is, how the individual or group came to acquire the particular dispositions that are the subject of examination. As such, analyses of this type are one part of the general study of socialization, broadly defined.
