Answer to Question 1

d

Answer to Question 2

Primary deviance involves norm violations or crimes that have little influence on the actor and can be quickly forgotten. These behaviors have little influence on a person's future behaviors. Secondary deviance, however, occurs when a deviant comes to the attention of others who apply a negative label. The label then causes the actor to reformulate his or her self-view into a deviant role.
