Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: People who deviate from cultural norms have learned their behavior the same way as everyone else. The difference is that deviant individuals have followed models the rest of society considers undesirable.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: Disinhibition is the weakening of inhibitions or constraints by observing the behavior of a model. People in a crowd may start a riot, breaking windows and shouting, exhibiting physical and verbal behaviors they would never perform when alone.
