In societies; modern as traditional, it is increasingly noted the recurrence of patterns of deviant behaviour and very often justified. Yet all human beings who have reasons acknowledge what is permitted and encouraged on the one hand and on the other hand, what is prohibited and condemned by the laws of society. This is thanks to some defense mechanisms and other social reasons, some people or groups tend to trivialize or even to relativize all forms of vice and in the present case, issues revolving around the incivility. It is clear that any negative act done within such a framework leaves most of the time to witnesses an "indelible" stain that the community should mitigate if not clear. Through a psychological approach, we intend to develop this thinking to lay bare some reasons favouring the proliferation of this phenomenon, particularly in the Cameroonian society. The goal here is to call back consciences to order and bring about a change of behaviour which will certainly allow the development of our societies and our living conditions improved.

Abstract
In societies; modern as traditional, it is increasingly noted the recurrence of patterns of deviant behaviour and very often justified. Yet all human beings who have reasons acknowledge what is permitted and encouraged on the one hand and on the other hand, what is prohibited and condemned by the laws of society. This is thanks to some defense mechanisms and other social reasons, some people or groups tend to trivialize or even to relativize all forms of vice and in the present case, issues revolving around the incivility. It is clear that any negative act done within such a framework leaves most of the time to witnesses an "indelible" stain that the community should mitigate if not clear. Through a psychological approach, we intend to develop this thinking to lay bare some reasons favouring the proliferation of this phenomenon, particularly in the Cameroonian society. The goal here is to call back consciences to order and bring about a change of behaviour which will certainly allow the development of our societies and our living conditions improved.

Abstract: (french)
Dans les sociétés, tant modernes que traditionnelles, il est de plus en plus observé la récurrence de schèmes de comportements déviants et très souvent même justifiés. Pourtant tous les êtres humains qui sont dotés de raison savent reconnaitre ce qui est permis et encouragé d'une part et d'autre part, ce qui est interdit et condamné par les lois de la société. C'est ainsi que grâce à certains mécanismes de défense et à d'autres explications sociales, certaines personnes ou groupes ont tendance à banaliser voire, à relativiser toute forme de vice et dans le cas d'espèce, les problématiques tournant autour de l'incivisme que nous abordons. Or il est clair que tout acte négatif posé dans un tel cadre laisse la plupart du temps aux témoins une portée et des tâches « indélébiles » que la communauté devrait atténuer si non effacer. A travers une approche psychologique, nous entendons développer cette réflexion en vue de mettre à nu quelques raisons qui favorisent la prolifération de ce phénomène, particulièrement dans la société camerounaise. Le but visé ici étant de s'engager à rappeler les consciences à l'ordre et de susciter un changement de comportement qui permettra à coup sûr, le développement de nos sociétés et une amélioration de nos conditions d'existence.
Author Keywords: incivisme, schème de comportement, personnalité de base, pulsion, morbidité.
