Answer: Differential Association Theory

Explanation: Differential Association Theory is one of the Symbolic Interactionist Theories of Deviance. It was propounded by Edwin Sutherland. It states that individuals learn values, attitudes, techniques, and motives for criminal behavior by interacting with others. This supports the statement "He just fell in with a bad crowd", which parents of deviants usually use to excuse the misbehavior of their offspring.
