We integrate and extend past work on self-determination theory and mixed relationships, or relationships characterized by both conflict and support, to address the question of how abusive supervision promotes subordinate organizational deviance. In so doing, we propose a mediated moderation model wherein abusive supervision and leader–member exchange interact to predict organizational deviance,...

This article examines the medicalization of deviance through a sociological lens. A definition of deviance is offered in terms of behavioral conduct, and indicates potential reasons individuals behave in a deviant manner. Next, a description of the medicalization of deviance is offered that describes ways deviant behaviors have been re-categorized as medical conditions that can be treated throu...

To examine the nature of news content in online journalism, this study explores how online media define newsworthiness in covering news events. We examine the effect of organizations on the news concept with two types of online news sites portal news sites and the sties of traditional newspapers. The study used seven newsworthiness indicators as predictors of news content: statistical deviance,...

Stochastic independence is an idealized relationship located at one end of a continuum of values measuring degrees of dependence. Modeling real world systems, we are often not interested in the distinction between exact independence and any degree of dependence, but between weak ignorable and strong substantial dependence. Good models map signiicant deviance from independence and neglect approx...

The mismatch negativity (MMN) provides a correlate of automatic auditory discrimination in human auditory cortex that is elicited in response to violation of any acoustic regularity. Recently, deviance-related responses were found at much earlier cortical processing stages as reflected by the middle latency response (MLR) of the auditory evoked potential, and even at the level of the auditory b...

Abstract The study of the antisocial behavior minors is interest to many scientists: from pedagogues and psychologists lawyers criminologists. On one hand, this has led important diverse research detailing nature, causes, consequences deviance among youth. This makes it possible develop better mechanisms for prevention juvenile delinquency, punishment, resocialization minor offenders. But on ot...

In a previous study early non-psychotic deviant behaviors in US adult schizophrenic patients recruited for a large-scale genetic study were examined (Psychiatry Research, 101, 101). Early deviance characterized a distinct subgroup of patients at rates that were consistent with earlier reports. In addition, specific early non-psychotic deviant behaviors were meaningfully associated with later di...

UNLABELLED Representations encoding the probabilities of auditory events do not directly support predictive processing. In contrast, information about the probability with which a given sound follows another (transitional probability) allows predictions of upcoming sounds. We tested whether behavioral and cortical auditory deviance detection (the latter indexed by the mismatch negativity event-...
