Innovation, ritualism, retreatism, and rebellion employ deviant behavior. Please select the best answer from the choices provided T F

True.

Explanation:

The above statement asserts a true claim regarding deviant behavior. Deviant behavior as the name suggests is characterized as the behavior that defies the social norms. It involves both: the formal breaching of rules enacted by an institutionalized group or informal infraction of the social rules.

As per this definition, processes like innovation, rebellion, retreatism, or ritualism involve deviant behavior as they all defy the confirmation to social norms in one way or another. 'Innovation' is demonstrated as the process of developing new and creative thoughts or ideas while rebellion involves 'actions that resist the authority.' Ritualism employs 'repeated sets of actions' for rites and retreatism includes 'denial of goals and means and looking for new alternatives to attain them.' Thus, all these processes involve a violation or deviance of the social construct/norms.
