    Andrew McClarren 12/1/12 Stanford Prison Study Paper The Stanford Prison Study was a very eye opening experiment because it was performed in 1971‚ before modern American Psychological Association guidelines were implemented. As young adults we’ve never seen anything like this experiment before. The power of this situation was exceptionally strong‚ especially to us.
