Abstract:
Aberrant behaviour, defined as activities that deviate from societal or psychological norms, is impacted by a complex interaction of biological, environmental, psychological, and sociocultural influences rather than just being a reflection of moral failing or intentional deviance. According to neurobiological research, impulsive and violent behavior can be significantly attributed to structural abnormalities in the brain, such as those in the prefrontal cortex. These behaviors are further shaped by sociocultural pressures including poverty and violence, as well as environmental factors such as adverse childhood experiences. Psychological theories that explain how these behaviors arise and endure include Freud's psychoanalytic model and Bandura's Social Learning Theory. Abnormal conduct can take many different forms, among which are aggressiveness, substance misuse, and risk-taking. Mental health problems and social isolation are frequent psychological effects of this kind of conduct. To lessen the effects on people and society, effective interventions consisting of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and pharmacological treatments must be proposed. These interventions have to consider into account the causes and manifestations of aberrant behavior and offer more useful remedies to individuals who are impacted by it by looking at it through a variety of perspectives.
