The theory that is MOST likely correct in the context of studying sociological causes and effects is:

  1. A breakdown in family support structures may lead to increased rates of crime.

This statement reflects a clear sociological cause (the breakdown of family support) and a potential effect (increased rates of crime), making it the most relevant to Mason's study of sociological relationships. The other options do not establish such a causal relationship or are less directly related to societal outcomes.
