Answer to Question 1

Modern trait theories do not suggests that a single biological or psychological attribute can explain criminal behavior. Instead, each offender is considered unique, and different explanations are necessary to explain each individual's behavior. They also recognize that human traits alone do not cause criminal behavior but interact with various factors to affect behaviors.
