Zimbardo Stanford Prison Experiment Summary

In an experiment by professor Philip G. Zimbardo to view actions by guards and prisoner, ran a semi-realistic type study. Although, the professor felt that in fact that it was unethical to continue as long as it did, he has used the data to help try to reduce the control issues found. The issues were that the guards became power crazy and push more with this new-found power. The prisoners acted poorly in their roles too. The prisoners felt that they could fight back in their roles which let the guards at worse. As I said that this was a semi-realistic type experiment.
In an environment where the authority of more than one tends to increase the unethical action of the group. In a real prison, the guards feel that they do have the power to act and behave immoral. They (the guards) believe that because the prisoners are ruthless criminals, their actions were allowed. In real prisons, there is more violence that one
Just as if you were role playing as astronaut, you would make up some kind of spaceship. The guards acted in their social norms, as they believed a guard would act. It appeared that the guards believed the roles before the volunteer prisoners did. It seems that the second day, the prisoners started believing that their freedom was gone (Zimbardo (Stanford Prison Experiment), 2011).
Our textbook states that “Stanford prison experiment demonstrated the power of social roles, norms, and scripts in affecting human behavior”. However, “… has some parallels with the abuse of prisoners of war” (Spielman et al, 2016). The guards knew that they were being documented, although some may have forgotten about it. I disagree about the Stanford experiment going too far. Reaching for the parallels would be more like the video on 15 Most Violent Prison on Earth. Examples were the guards to the warden up that believed they were gods (Planet Dolan,
