Final answer:

Control theory posits that weak social bonds lead to deviant behavior, while strong bonds deter it.


Explanation:

Control theory suggests that weak social bonds lead to deviant behavior, while strong bonds deter it. Travis Hirschi's concept of social bonds, including attachment, commitment, involvement, and belief, explains why individuals conform to societal norms. In contrast, deviance can result from a feeling of disconnection from society, as emphasized in control theory.
