Stanford prison experiment: Encyclopedia II - Stanford prison experiment - Conclusions

The experiment's result has been argued to demonstrate the impressionability and obedience of people when provided with a legitimizing ideology and social and institutional support. It is also used to illustrate cognitive dissonance theory and the power of authority. In psychology, the results of the experiment are said to support situational attributions of behavior rather than dispositional attribution. In other words, it seemed to entail that the situation caused the participants' behavior rather than anything inherent in their ind ...

Stanford prison experiment: Encyclopedia II - Stanford prison experiment - Results
The experiment very quickly got out of hand. Prisoners suffered — and accepted — sadistic and humiliating treatment at the hands of the guards, and by the end many showed severe emotional disturbance. After a relatively uneventful first day, a riot broke out on day two. Guards volunteered extra hours and worked together to break up the revolt, without supervision from the research staff. After this point, the guards tried to divide the prisoners and pit them against each other by setting up a "good" cell block and a "bad" cell blo ...

Stanford prison experiment: Encyclopedia II - Stanford prison experiment - Comparisons to Abu Ghraib prisoner abuse

The human rights abuses that occurred at the Abu Ghraib prison, under the authority of the American armed forces in the aftermath of the 2003 Iraq war, has been called a real-life example of the Stanford prison experiment. According to Zimbardo, acts of humiliation similar to those that occurred in the Stanford experiment resulted when inadequately trained U.S. soldiers were allocated the role of prison guards. The comparison was widely discussed in the media. Seymour Hersh challenged this theory in an article in The New Yorker that p ...

Stanford prison experiment: Encyclopedia II - Stanford prison experiment - Goals and methods

The study was funded by the US Navy to explain conflict in its and the Marine Corps' prison systems. Zimbardo and his team intended to test the hypothesis that prison guards and convicts were self-selecting, of a certain disposition that would naturally lead to poor conditions in that situation. Participants were recruited via a newspaper ad and offered $15 a day ($76 a day in 2006 dollars) to participate in a two-week "prison simulation." Of the 70 respondents, Zimbardo and his team selected 24 whom they deemed to be the most psychologically stable and healthy. These ...

Stanford prison experiment: Encyclopedia II - Stanford University - History

Stanford was founded by railroad magnate and California Governor Leland Stanford and his wife, Jane Stanford. It is named in honor of their son, Leland Stanford, Jr., who died of typhoid as a teenager. Locals and university affiliates are known to refer to the school as The Farm, a nod to the fact that the university is located on the former site of Leland Stanford's horse farm. The University's founding grant was written on November 11, 1885, and accepted by the first Board of Trustees on November 14. The cornerstone was laid ...

The main campus is bounded by El Camino Real, Stanford Avenue, Junipero Serra Boulevard and Sand Hill Road, in the center of the Santa Clara Valley on the San Francisco Peninsula.

For the experiment, subjects were recruited by newspaper ads and direct mail to participate in a study at Yale.

Stanford prison experiment: Encyclopedia II - Stanford University - Community

Stanford has been coeducational since its founding; however, between approximately 1899 and 1933, there was a policy in place limiting female enrollment to 500 students and maintaining a ratio of three males for every one female student. As of 2005, undergraduate enrollment is split nearly evenly between the sexes, but male enrollees outnumber female enrollees about 2:1 at the graduate level. The campus is home to a small number of fraternities an ...

Stanford prison experiment: Encyclopedia II - Milgram experiment - Results

Milgram created a documentary film showing the experiment and its results, titled "Obedience", legitimate copies of which are hard to find today. He also produced a series of five other films on social psychology with Harry From, some of which touched on his experiments [1]. They may all be obtained from Penn State Media Services. Before the experiment was conducted Milgram polled fellow psychologists as to what the results would be. They unanimously believed that only a few sadists ...

Stanford prison experiment: Encyclopedia II - Milgram experiment - Reactions

The experiment raised questions about the ethics of scientific experimentation itself because of the extreme emotional stress suffered by the participants (even though it could be said that this stress was brought on by their own free actions). Most modern scientists would consider the experiment unethical today, though it resulted in valuable insights into human psychology. In Milgram's defense, 84 percent of former participants surveyed later said they were "glad" or "very glad" to have participated and 15 percent chose neutral (92% ...

Stanford prison experiment: Encyclopedia II - Milgram experiment - Variations

Milgram describes 19 variations of the experiment that he conducted in Obedience to Authority: An Experimental View. In general, he found that when the immediacy of the victim was increased, compliance decreased, and when immediacy of the authority increased, compliance increased (Experiments 1–4). For instance, in one variation where participants received instructions from the experimenter only by telephone (Experiment 2), compliance greatly decreased; interestingly, a number of participants deceived the experimenter by pretendi ...
