VOYEURISM: A Deviant Psychopathology or Criminal Deviance?
Issues regarding the overlapping principles of psychopathological deviance and crime have been very controversial and so criteria and points are sometimes presented in some studies to identify specific behaviors that are only psychopathological or are criminal deviations.

Even voyeurism’s psychiatric definitions have issues apropos to how it will clearly categorize within psychiatric illness, thus giving inaccurate basis for identifying paraphiliacs who are potentially criminal from those who simply enjoys pleasure from its accepted ways.
