Normalization of deviance is a term used by the American sociologist Diane Vaughan to describe the process in which deviance from normal behavior becomes normalized in a corporate culture.[1] The original example cited by Vaughn was the events leading to the Challenger disaster, but the concept has also been applied to clinical practice in medicine[2] and aviation safety.[3][4]
