Episodic deviance refers to instances of deviant behavior that occur sporadically or in specific contexts rather than as a consistent pattern of behavior. Yuning binge drinking at her 21st birthday party is an example of episodic deviance because it is a singular event tied to a specific occasion, rather than a habitual action.
