under graduate students in Nigeria, this social mal adaptation is considered an

issue of serious concern as it adversely affects the lives and performance of

students involved as well as the harmonious functioning of the entire structure

of the society the theoretical framework used in the study is
mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";mso-fareast-language:EN-GB">theory of

crime as basically the pursuit of self interest. Self interest and social

control theory the two names, Michael Gottfredson and Travis Hirschi (1990),

can combine to predispose someone to criminality.
