What is deviant in one place or in one time period may not be deviant in other places or in other time periods.

OA. True

B.

False

The given statement is true because deviance is simply an act that defies society's established values and norms and arouses negative social reactions.

Explanation:

Deviance is relative because a behavior considered deviant 'depends on the circumstances' in which the behavior occurs rather the behavior itself. For example, if a 'young male murder someone', he faces prosecution, arrest and even possible execution but if a 'soldier kills someone' during wartime, he/she is considered a hero. Deviance is not the quality of the act committed, it's a consequences sanctioned to an offender.
