Answer:

Labeling Theory

Explanation:

As originated by Howard Beckers in 1960, Labeling theory in sociology is the view that individuals may begin to act according to the way that are labelled such as when one may be labelled a criminal or deviant and begins to act in that manner too. Labeling theory explains why people's behavior clashes with social norms. It is therefore associated with the self-fulfilling prophecy concepts that a person's self identity may be influenced and determined by the way a person is labelled.
