Stanford Prison Experiment: Zimbardo's Famous Study
The experiment was conducted in 1971 by psychologist Philip Zimbardo to examine situational forces versus dispositions in human behavior. 24 young, healthy, psychologically normal men were randomly assigned to be "prisoners" or "guards" in a simulated prison environment. The experiment had to be terminated after only 6 days due to the ...
Conformity to Social Roles as Investigated by Zimbardo
Zimbardo (1973) conducted an extremely controversial study on conformity to social roles, called the Stanford Prison Experiment. His aim was to examine whether people would conform to the social roles of a prison guard or prisoner, when placed in a mock prison environment. Furthermore, he also wanted to examine whether the behaviour displayed ...
Demonstrating the Power of Social Situations via a Simulated Prison
The lessons of the Stanford Prison Experiment have gone well beyond the classroom (Haney & Zimbardo, 1998). Zimbardo was invited to give testimony to a Congressional Committee investigating the causes of prison riots (Zimbardo, 1971), and to a Senate Judiciary Committee on crime and prisons focused on detention of juveniles (Zimbardo, 1974).
Stanford prison experiment

It was a two-week simulation of a prison environment that examined the effects of situational variables on participants' reactions and behaviors. Stanford University psychology professor Philip Zimbardo managed the research team who administered ...
How is the Stanford Prison Experiment connected to Conformity?
The Zimbardo's one however seems somewhat implicit. The notes that I read seem to put the Stanford Prison experiment right after the ones by Sherif and Asch. So I believe it should have some relation with the Conformity theory. But I cannot see clearly how is it related to the Conformity theory, particularly in the context of Communications.
Stanford Prison Experiment
Stanford Prison Experiment, a social psychology study (1971) in which college students became prisoners or guards in a simulated prison environment. Intended to measure the effect of role-playing, labeling, and social expectations on behavior, the experiment ended after six days due to the mistreatment of prisoners.
Stanford Prison Experiment: Zimbardo's Famous Study

Contesting the "Nature" Of Conformity: What Milgram and Zimbardo's
Abstract. Understanding of the psychology of tyranny is dominated by classic studies from the 1960s and 1970s: Milgram's research on obedience to authority and Zimbardo's Stanford Prison Experiment. Supporting popular notions of the banality of evil, this research has been taken to show that people conform passively and unthinkingly to both the ...
The Stanford Prison Experiment: The Power of the Situation
Philip Zimbardo is best known for his 1971 Stanford Prison Experiment (SPE). Early in his career, he conducted experiments in the psychology of deindividualization, in which a person in a group or crowd no longer acts as a responsible individual but is swept along and participates in antisocial actions. After moving to Stanford University, he ...
