8. DEVIANT BEHAVIOR Ted Kaczynski doesn’t appear to show any discussed deviant behavior. He was described as being paranoid and schizophrenic in his journals, so his behavior must have been psychology. Most likely due to his isolation in early childhood, and aggravated by other psychological trauma. He didn’t belong to any groups that deviated his behavior. In fact, he steadily became more and more reclusive. It was noted that as his condition declined, he cut off more of his interpersonal relationships. He believed that the government was evil, and was very suspicious of everything they did.
