The Stanford Prison Experiment – Phillip Zimbardo Introduction Headed by Phillip Zimbardo‚ the Stanford Prison Experiment was designed with the aim of investigating how readily people would behave and react to the roles given to them within a simulated prison. The experiment showed that the social expectations that people have of specific social situations can direct and strongly influence behaviour. The concepts evident in the Stanford Prison Experiment include social influence‚ and within that

1. Animals Experiments were carried out in adult male Wistar rats (200-225 g; 2-2.5 months old)‚ obtained from Central Animal Research Facility‚ NIMHANS‚ Bengaluru. Adult rats were group-housed (3 per cage) in a climate-controlled vivarium with a 12:12 h dark/light cycle. All animals had free access to food and drinking water except during the stress procedure or behavioral evaluation. All the experiments were performed during the light phase between 10:00 h and-14:00 h. All experiments were approved

Experiment 1 Background Diffusion is a process‚ in relation to the spontaneous movement of molecules from an area of high concentration‚ to an area of low concentration down a concentration gradient. It is a type of passive transport method‚ that requires no cellular energy (ATP). This movement occurs‚ until a state of equilibrium has been established on both sides of the membrane. The diffusion of molecules happens at cellular level‚ through a cell membrane via the pores. The cell membrane

positively charged ions (Cations) move away. Anode: Electrode which becomes negatively charged. During the process‚ positively charged ions (Cations) more towards the electrode whilst negatively charged ions (Anions) move away.

EXPERIMENT 5 TRANSVERSE STANDING WAVES A string attached to a turning fork is set vibrating at the same frequency as the tuning fork. The length and tension in the string are adjusted until standing waves are observed on the string. By knowing the tension in the string and the wavelength of the standing waves‚ the frequency of oscillation of the string and thus‚ the tuning fork is found. This value is then compared to a strobelight determination of the frequency. THEORY

straight line with a gradient that gets deeper that is what I predicted. To improve my experiment to make it even more reliable I could use a more accurate ammeter and a larger range of results as well as more checks. The ammeter I use could be more than two decimal places‚ and I could get a lot of results and put them on one graph to make my results are reliable and I have a good accurate graph. Analysis When the bulbs received more current the molecules in the bulb vibrated fast and

Silver Mirror Experiment Background: This experiment was first conducted by Bernhard Tollens‚ it is used to determine whether a carbonyl containing compound is an aldehyde or a ketone. An aldehyde is a compound containing a formyl group (CHO).The experiment involves diamminesilver complex and a chemical reagent (also known as “Tollens’ reagent”) which in this case is glucose. In a successful experiment a reflective silver metal should precipitate‚ with characteristics identical to that of a mirror’

the potential energy is constant along the chain and sharply rises to infinity at the ends. Therefore‚ we can replace the electron system by free electrons moving in a one dimensional box of length . Objective: The purpose of this experiment is to obtain the visible spectra of several cyanine dyes and then interpret them to a simple model of the electronic structure of the π system: the Particle in a Box.
