Secondary deviance

Secondary deviance

Secondary deviance is a stage in a theory of deviant identity formation. Lemert (1967) [Lemert, Edwin. 1967. "Human Deviance, Social Problems and Social Control". Englewood Cliffs, NJ: Prentice-Hall] conceptualized primary deviance as engaging in the initial act of deviance and then posited secondary deviance as the stage in which one internalizes a deviant identity by integrating it into their self-concept.
