LESSON 5 ASSIGNMENT 2 Lesson 5 Assignment Chapter 7: 1. Define: Theory, anomie, id, ego, superego Theory and anomie are the foundational descriptions of the causes of deviant behaviors in people. The “id, ego and superego” define the representations that the mind structure possesses. The id stands as the part that has a person’s primitive desires or needs that is defined by the uncivilized passion that people possess when born (Lapsley & Stey, 2011). The morality that a person develops through their life is the superego and it embodies the values from their parenting and the society ( Abadinsky, 2017). On the other hand, the ego is the central part that mediates between the primitive desires and the morality that one acquires in their upbringing. 2. According to cognitive behavior theory, how does that theory view the offender? The theory deems deviant behaviors as a matter of choice and understanding. The therapy that in this theory helps offenders to understand their offenses by being accountable to come to terms with their thinking processes and choices so as to avoid committing offenses again. An offender gets to understand the thoughts that became the reason for their criminal behavior ( Abadinsky, 2017). In effect, he or she transforms through this revelation and becomes a better person if they genuinely alter their school of thought.
