The Impact of an Immersive Block Curriculum on Student Achievement and Feedback across Disciplines
With greater diversity in student cohorts globally, higher education institutions are seeking innovative curriculum delivery forms which better serve students’ learning needs and improve their learning experiences. Immersive block models are one such innovation that can make a sustained, positive difference to student outcomes, yet their impact across disciplines is underexplored. This study examined student achievement (N = 92,461) and satisfact…
Assessment for student transitions and success
Enabling education, also known as foundation, pathway or access education, provides opportunities for many students from under-represented groups to access university. Although various studies have documented the effectiveness of these programmes, little is known about the assessment principles and practices in this sub-field of higher education. This paper offers the first scoping review of scholarly literature on assessment in Australian enabli…
The Impact of an Immersive Block Model on International Postgraduate Student Success and Satisfaction
International postgraduate students enrich higher education institutions and host societies, contributing economically, socially, and culturally. However, much less is known about how to improve their academic outcomes compared with their undergraduate counterparts. This study explores the impact of a non-traditional form of learning, a six-week immersive block model underpinned by guided, active learning pedagogy, on the academic success, satisf…
Supporting the academic success of underrecognised higher education students through an immersive block model
Immersive block models are an innovative approach to higher education (HE) that engage students over shorter periods of study than traditional semesters and aim to improve students’ academic success through a more focused and active learning experience. These models may be of particular benefit for HE students from cohorts that are historically underrecognised. We investigate this potential by comparing academic achievement (N = 30,108) outcomes …
Creating the conditions for student success through curriculum reform
Outcomes in higher education (HE) are influenced by the learning conditions created for students. The traditional model of HE, where students attend content-focused lectures over 12–15-week semesters, may not provide the conditions that best meet the learning needs of increasingly diverse HE cohorts. This study assessed the extent to which an immersive block model, a non-traditional form of HE delivery that employs active learning pedagogy and en…

Implications of immersive scheduling for student achievement and feedback
Post-pandemic, many universities are seeking ways to better engage students and support them to stay with and succeed in their studies. Immersive scheduling, whereby students complete units over shorter time periods than the traditional 12–15 week semester or trimester, may be a way to do this and improve academic outcomes at scale. This paper focuses on the impact of an immersive scheduling model at a public Australian university where higher ed…
What's Deviant? Topics That Instructors Highlight in Their Deviance Course
To determine what sociologists of deviance actually teach in their course of the same name, I requested a copy of a syllabus from their instructors at roughly 600 nonrandomly chosen sociology departments in the United States and Canada; in addition, I harvested two dozen or so syllabi that instructors posted on the Internet. My sample came to 229 syllabi, again, for a nonrandom selection of deviance courses taught in North America. Instructors of…
Deviant Behavior
The new 2022 edition of the most widely taught deviance text brings us into a changing political era. A new chapter on political deviance includes a section that defines political deviance, emphasizing a sociological and not an ideological definition. It also covers which sectors of the society define what constitutes political deviance; and political deviance and its relation to social change. In addition, the chapter on substance abuse provides…
Transforming lives
This study examines the impact of an Australian enabling program, underpinned by critical pedagogy, on students’ academic and professional success. Qualitative focus group data were collected from individuals who had completed an enabling program at a regional Australian university and progressed to undergraduate study. Quantitative data comparing the academic achievement of enabling and non-enabling students across a six-year period were also an…

Does online engagement matter? The impact of interactive learning modules and synchronous class attendance on student achievement in an immersive delivery model
One Australian public university is radically changing the way it delivers higher education, introducing a 6-week immersive scheduling delivery model across all units and courses. Despite the emerging success of block and immersive models for raising the performance of diverse student cohorts, the design factors underpinning positive outcomes are underexplored. This paper presents a mixed methods study of the impact and value of student engagemen…
Deviance
We can divide the study of deviance into two principal endeavors: the effort to understand how social norms are constructed, how such normative constructions are applied, and with what consequences; and the effort to explain why some people engage in behaviors that are considered wrong. Social norms can be violated in several ways – as a result of non‐normative behavior, beliefs, conditions, and physical characteristics. However, sociologists and…
The Taming of New York's Washington Square
This book addresses the matter of how social audiences, both formal agents of social control (the NYPD and the Park Enforcement Control) and the ordinary, everyday park-goer, react when they encounter what they consider wrongdoing, or “deviance.” The focus is on the micro or face-to-face interactional level; the larger structural forces are held in abeyance and assumed to operate, but they are not analysed or accounted for here. Likewise, literar…
Deviance, Constructionist Perspectives
Sometime in the mid‐twentieth century, sociologists revolutionized their conception of deviance, from considering it a particular type of act based on its intrinsic properties, notably harm, to deeming it behavior that is wrongful solely and exclusively because it is proscribed legally and/or socially, and because social constructions of deviance and crime call for a punitive, censorious reaction from audiences
Deviant Behavior
Deviant Behavior offers an engaging and wide-ranging discussion of deviant behavior, beliefs, and conditions. It examines how the society defines, labels, and reacts to whatever, and whoever, falls under this stigmatizing process—thereby providing a distinctly sociological approach to the phenomenon. The central focus in defining what and who is deviant is the audience—members of the influential social collectivities that determine the outcome of…
Accounts, Deviant
Deviant accounts are linguistic devices intended to exonerate the narrator for putative wrongdoing. Sociologists have identified at least half a dozen types of deviant accounts, including excuses (a denial of responsibility), exceptionalization (denial that the act belongs to a generic class of wrongful behaviors), justifications (explaining why a generally wrongful act had to be committed and hence, why it is not so wrongful), and normalization …
Deviance, Explanatory Theories of
For thousands of years, humans have attempted to explain the behavior that members of their societies considered deviance, wrongdoing, or crime: “Why do some members of the society engage in serious normative violations?” Or: “What social conditions increase the likelihood that members of the society will engage in serious normative violations?” The answers theorists have given over the years have ranged from the maximization of self‐interests to…
Deviant Behavior
Deviant Behavior provides a comprehensive study of the behavior, beliefs, conditions, and reactions to deviance, giving students a better understanding of this phenomenon. Deviance is discussed from the sociological perspectives of positivism and constructionism. Readers will grasp the reason behind deviant behavior through the positivist perspective and why certain actions, beliefs, and physical characteristics are condemned through the construc…
The Paradox of Howard Becker's Intellectual Identity
Howard S. Becker, best known as a sociologist of deviance, claims that he “never really did work on deviance as such.” Why does he say this? The fortuitous nature of his entry into the field, his belief that deviance is not an analytic category, and the amount of time, energy, and commitment he has invested in this as opposed to other fields, play a role in this stance. In all likelihood, contrary to his wish, Howard Becker will always be regarde…
Deviance, Crime and
Deviance and crime are not coterminous; they are overlapping but conceptually and empirically distinct. Sociologists define deviance as the violation of a norm that is likely to elicit (from audiences) censure, condemnation, stigma, social isolation, or punishment. In contrast, crime is the violation of a formal code known as criminal law, instances of which are likely, if observed by agents of law enforcement, to result in police attention, appr…
The Handbook of Deviance
"The Handbook of Deviance is a definitive reference for professionals, researchers, and students that provides a comprehensive and engaging introduction to the sociology of deviance. Composed of over 30 essays written by an international array of scholars and meticulously edited by one of the best known authorities on the study of deviance Features chapters on cutting-edge topics, such as terrorism and environmental degradation as forms of devian…
Death of the Sociology of Deviance
Observers, critics, and pundits have often predicted the death of some field of study, institution, practice, or custom – even the death of an entire society. Some of these supposedly “soon to meet their demise” phenomena are the novel, God, the family, capitalism, history, western society, and – closer to our subject – sociology itself. It seems almost superfluous to say that the bolder and broader the prediction, the less likely is it that it w…

Positive deviance
This paper questions the viability of the positive deviance concept, which has been endorsed recently by a number of authors. Much of the discussion about the viability of positive deviance hinges on whether the theorist adopts the normative or the reactive definition of deviance: If one follows the normative definition of deviance, positive deviance is a theoretically viable concept; if one follows the reactive definition, it is not. In the auth…
Variables Related to the Acquisition of a Gay Identity
The research reported here examines variables that relate to the speed at which gay identities are acquired. Age cohort, high school heterosexual activity involving more than kissing, and high school homosexual activity involving more than kissing were found to relate to the ages at which a sample of homosexual males suspected they might be homosexual, labeled their feelings as homosexual, defined themselves as homosexual, started to socialize wi…
On Behalf of Labeling Theory
This paper responds to a number of recent criticisms of labeling theory. Some have criticized labeling theory for empathizing with deviants. These critics ignore the emphasis of the interactionist perspective to take the role of the other in social research. Marxists criticize labeling theory for ignoring oppression and exploitation. But it is argued that the interactionist perspective demands the sort of investigation urged by Marxists. Finally …
Moral Panics and Disproportionality
Critics of the moral panic dismiss this extremely useful, often-cited, and durable concept on the basis of inapplicable criteria. Drawing on the example of LSD use in the sixties, these critics mistakenly assume that the disaster analogy is apt, insisting that the threat to society, and society's responses, be very much like victims trapped in a burning building. In addition to the fact that the introduction of a new and potentially harmful drug …

Sexual correlates of homosexual experience
One of the more important contributions of the pioneering Reports was to break down sexual sterotypes. Previous to its publication (Kinsey, et al., 1948; Kinsey, et al., 1953) an almost universally held assumption was that the homosexual role included a lack of interest in the opposite sex (McIntosh, 1968). Kinsey and his associates found that current homosexuals have far more heterosexual experience in their background than heterosexuals have ha…

Social Class and Church Participation
Church activity, particularly church attendance, has been found by researchers to vary significantly with social class; individuals of the middle status levels tend to be more active in the church than those of lower status levels. Although several attempts have been made to test this essay demonstrate that over-all associational participation influences the relationship between class and church activity to a significant degree, so much so that w…
The Macguffin That Refuses to Die
For decades, and in one form or another, critics have proclaimed the "death" of the sociology of deviance. I contend that these proclamations are without merit, a smokescreen, a red herring--in the words of filmmaker Alfred Hitchcock (1972), a MacGuffin, a device without emotional content that is intended to carry a plot forward. Each critic means something quite different by the claim, and each claim, when carefully examined, contains smuggled-i…
The fat admirer
This paper describes a neglected social phenomenon: men who are erotically and romantically attracted to fat women in part because they are obese. Fifteen formal interviews were held with "fat admirers," as well as numerous informal interviews with many more. In addition, the authors have been participants in a "fat" civil rights organization (the National Association to Aid Fat Americans), which serves as a site for fat admirers and obese women …

Class Styles of Religious Sociation
The interplay between the sacred and the secular is a topic which has occupied much attention and energy of researchers in the sociology of religion throughout much of the field's history. Indeed, if the sociology of religion can be said to have a primary point of focus, it is around this particular issue. One largely unresolved question, however, is the degree of the mutuality of influence. Is religion primarily a recipient of influence from nor…

Sex With Informants as Deviant Behavior
Engaging in sex with informants in social research is regarded as deviant; hence, it is rarely admitted in print. The author argues that such behavior is likely to influence what the researcher sees, how conclusions are reached, and what is written about. He summarizes what has been discussed on the issue of sexual self-disclosure and indicates how his own intimate relations with informants on three projects may have shaped his vision and conclus…
Marijuana and the Politics of Reality
It is asserted that the marijuana controversy is primarily a political, rather than a scientific, debate. It is a struggle to establish moral hegemony. Stances toward marijuana use and legalization are largely a manifestation of prior basic underlying ideological commitments. Scientific truth or falsity seem to have little or no impact on the positions taken-although both sides will invoke scientific findings and in fact will actually believe the…
The “Death” Macguffin Redux
In commenting on my critique of the “deviance is dead” thesis (Goode, 2003 Goode, Erich. 2003. “The MacGuffin that Refuses to Die: An Investigation into the Condition of the Sociology of Deviance.”. Deviant Behavior, 24: 507–33. [Taylor & Francis Online], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]), Joel Best (in this issue) makes several points which seem shaky. Examined critically–and agreeing that the field has declined during the past 20 years in …

Deviance, norms, and social reaction
The author suggests a scheme that attempts to resolve some of the conceptual problems and dilemmas that Meier argues persist in the sociology of deviant behavior. He proposes that a distinction be made not only between the normative and the reactive perspectives toward deviance, but also between “hard” and “soft” varieties of the reactive perspective. The normative perspective has limitations and drawbacks—as does a liberal (or “hard") reading of…

Some Critical Observations on the Church-Sect Dimension
THE church-sect dimension1 is a theoretical and empirical construct which has had a long and honorable tradition in the sociology of religion. First developed by Weber2 and substantially elaborated by Troeltsch,3 the concept has received more or less sustained attention throughout sociology's modern history.4 Refinements have followed one upon the other in the years following these pioneering efforts. Thus, instead of the simple dichotomy, we now…

Further Reflections on the Church-Sect Dimension
AFTER reading the comments of Drs. Demerathl and Eister,2 I am provoked much more to agreement than to debate. There are, nonetheless, points which call for clarification and further conceptualization. We will begin with Eister's sweeping statements since his critique and my own are more complementary than contradictory. It is wrong, however, to infer that I am attempting to salvage the churchsect typology, to criticize only a part of it and to r…

Heterosexual and homosexual activity among gay males
A total of 150 adult self‐professed homosexual men, age 20 to 40, living in three locales‐Manhattan, Suffolk County, (N.Y.), and Minneapolis‐were interviewed, in part to determine their heterosexual and homosexual activities. About two‐thirds (65%) said they had experienced intercourse with a woman at least once, but only 6% had done so in the year prior to the survey. The respondents with heterosexual experience (especially with several women) w…
