Travis Hirshi’s social bonding theory is a form of social control. While other criminological theories attempt to explain why crime occurs, social bonding theory explains why people conform to the norms of society and away from deviant and antisocial behaviors.

Review Chapter 7 in your primary text, and watch The Social Bond Theory video, which provides examples of the four elements of the theory (Siegel, 2015; Hiemstra, 2013). In your paper,
