Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | The Stanford Prison Experiment is a famous psych experiment where volunteers were split into groups of "guards" and "prisoners". While both sides knew it was fake, they quickly began treating it as though it was real, with both groups spontaneously falling into their "roles". The "guards" (and researchers) quickly becoming abusive and sadistic, while the "prisoners" attempted to riot and showed symptoms associated with long-term incarceration. The entire experiment had to be stopped after six days (it was originally planned to last two weeks), and is often used as an example of psychological research that cannot be repeated due to ethical concerns. |
