Which theory empirically states that certain conditions may lead to a probable outcome?

Predictive Theory
Delinquency
Environment
Host

The correct answer is: Predictive Theory

Predictive Theory is a research-based theory that suggests that environmental and biological factors can predict certain behaviors or outcomes. Option B, Delinquency, is a term that refers to criminal or antisocial behavior and is not a theory. Option C, Environment, is too broad and does not specifically mention the relationship between conditions and probable outcomes. Option D, Host, is also too broad and does not directly relate to the question. Therefore, A is the most accurate answer as it specifically addresses the question about conditions leading to probable outcomes.
