Stanford Prison Experiment In discussions of the Stanford Prison Experiment conducted by Philip G. Zimbardo in 1970‚ one controversial issue has been whether or not the experiment should have ever been attempted.

On the other hand‚ one of the former guards contended that the experiment made him more hostile and

The Four Main Macromolecules Interestingly enough‚ all cells that build up an entire organism‚ such as the human body‚ only consist of water‚ inorganic ions‚ and organic compounds as three dominant components. Together‚ water and inorganic ions such as Sodium‚ Magnesium‚ Calcium‚ Phosphate‚ etc. make up around 70% of the cell’s mass‚ while organic compounds make up the rest. Unlike its other two counterparts‚ organic compounds contain carbon-hydrogen reactions that allow them to create‚ sustain‚

footage of this experiment? Initially when I watched this experiment I felt sadden. One that is was necessary in the 70’s for this teacher to need to teach this lesson‚ but most of all how easily swayed these children were. They were so quick to demoralize their classmates‚ solely based on the fact the teacher told them they could. It is a reminder that children are most susceptible in their formative years.

If they didn’t remember the answers then the participant would shock them with up to 450 volts. The experiment’s goal

Experiments and war are not often thought of being similar. Experiments are thought to be sterile‚ civilianized‚ and controlled; with men in pristine white coats rushing about carrying test tubes and clipboards. On the other hand‚ war is chaotic and anarchic; filled with disease‚ death‚ and suffering. War is bloodshed and loss; while experiments are organized and precise. Psychological experiments can be used to simulate warlike tendencies and behaviors. The Milgram Obedience Experiment‚ tests how
