In “The Stanford Prison Experiment,” Philip K. Zimbardo created an “experimental mock prison” to discover how imprisonment affected emotionally stable volunteers. The study was organized for psychologists to understand why prisoners lose their individualism, while guards obtain power by manipulating the prisoners’ lives. Zimbardo’s simulation of prison life was conducted the summer of 1971 at Stanford University.
Zimbardo began his experiment by placing an advertisement in a local newspaper. He offered to pay male college students fifteen dollars a day for participating in his two-week psychological study of prison life. ... The volunteers were then arrested, blindfolded, and transported to the “Stanford County Prison.
