According to sociologist Walter Reckless’ theory, society produces pushes and pulls that move people toward criminal behavior; however, some people "insulate" themselves from such pressures by having positive self-esteem and good group cohesion.

Containment

Explanation:

Early theories of criminology were understood in terms of "pushing" and/or "pulling" individuals towards deviance but containment theory by Walter Reckless which was proposed in the 1950s explained that these theories were failed because they would not account for those young people who did not commit delinquency while being faced with pushes and/or pulls toward delinquent ways. The theory claims that some individuals are effectively isolated from criminal involvement by a series of external social factors and internal qualities even when ecological variables induce others to commit crime.
