Shelly shoplifted once. Her peers on social media have labeled her "shoplifting Shelly," and this label follows her everywhere o
nline and at school. She feels hopeless and shoplifts regularly now to alleviate her anxiety and because it is what everyone expects her to do anyway. Labeling theory would interpret her ongoing shoplifting as: A. primary deviance
B. secondary deviance
Secondary deviance is the reaction result of primary deviance. The social reaction is deviant behavior. In society, the deviance is explained as the stigmatized.
Deviant behavior in society leads to socially deviant criminal behavior. The deviant behavior is the contradict behavior of the self-image and the person who is labeled by this does not confirm their role.
The person to escape from cognitive dissonance, the individual ultimately adopts the label of deviant behavior.
Thus here Shelly shoplifting was secondary deviance.
