Even within a society, behavior that constitutes criminal deviance when one individual engages in it may not constitute criminal deviance for another individual.

True

Explanation:

Deviance is a breakaway from the norms of a society. Deviance can be an individual's inability to conform to the set down rules of a society.

There are positive deviance, which are beneficial to the society like

a police killing a gunman and negative deviance such as a man going on a shooting spree.

For some or most individual in a society, killing another human being can be seen as an act that constitutes a criminal deviance, whereas a policeman who guns down a bank robber is not seen as a criminal deviance.

False.

Explanation:

As you may already know, a criminal activity is any activity that violates the law of a country or region. Deviance, on the other hand, is a term used to determine behavior contrary to the norms and concepts accepted within a society, or within the same community.

Thus, we can say that within the same society, a behavior that is considered as criminal deviance for an individual is the same behavior that is considered as criminal deviance for the other individuals that are members of that society.
