Abstrakt: The literature on the decline of academic achievement shows the decline as a social problem with a variety of alleged causes. A number of these claims incorporate assumptions of deviance as nonconformity to standards or expectations. This paper reviews the nature of claims about the alleged reasons for the decline in academic achievement and explores the deviance themes that characterize them. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
