  • Robert K. Merton's Strain Theory - also sometimes called Merton's Typology of Deviance - is a sociological theory that was originally intended to explain why people engage in criminal behavior. Merton's theory can also be applied to other situations that don't involve criminal deviance. This video provides an overview and explanation of Merton's Strain Theory and Typology of Deviance.
