Describe the Zimbardo experiment and its results
What will be an ideal response?
• To test the ways in which prisons change human behavior, Zimbardo constructed a mock prison in the basement of a building at Stanford University and used students in one of his college classes to play the roles of staff and inmates. Twenty-four male students were then randomly assigned to roles as either guards or prisoners. The prisoners were supposed to spend two weeks in the "Stanford County Prison," operated by the guards. But hostility between the groups, humiliation by the guards, and resistance by the prisoners deteriorated the situation so much that Zimbardo cancelled the experiment after just one week.
