How does this theory explain criminal behavior?

Criminal behavior is viewed as a result of social learning, where individuals learn deviant behavior through their environment, especially through interaction with peers and exposure to criminal models. Additionally, strain theory suggests that criminal behavior can be a result of individuals' exposure to strain or stress, which may lead them to engage in criminal activities to achieve their goals. Environmental factors such as poverty, lack of opportunities, and community breakdown can also contribute to criminal behavior according to this theory.
