Originally posted by geroin Stanford Prison Experiment - Psychology of Imprisonment The Stanford prison experiment was a psychological study of the human response to captivity, in particular, to the real world circumstances of prison life and the effects of imposed social roles on behavior. It was conducted in 1971 by a team of researchers led by Philip Zimbardo of Stanford University. Undergraduate volunteers played the roles of guards and prisoners living in a mock prison built in the basement of the Stanford psychology building. Prisoners and guards rapidly adapted to their assigned roles, stepping beyond the boundaries of what had been predicted and leading to genuinely dangerous and psychologically damaging situations. One-third of guards were judged to have exhibited "genuine" sadistic tendencies, while many prisoners were emotionally traumatized and two had to be removed from the experiment early. Despite the now highly unsanitary and out of control conditions evident, only one of 50 observers, graduate interviewer Christina Maslach, objected to the experiment. Zimbardo then ended the experiment early. Ethical concerns surrounding the famous experiment often draw comparisons to the Milgram experiment, which was conducted in 1963 at Yale University by Stanley Milgram, Zimbardo's former high school friend. Must Watch VIDEO LINK 50minutes

^^^ I was lucky enough to watch the documentary before it was taken down. It was really interesting to watch, as I've discussed this experiment in a number of my classes.

yeah me too, it was great with all the naration and explanation from zimbardo + the interviews at the end were great :P

I recommend that those who find the dynamics of this study interesting watch 'Das Experiment'.
