[–] MaryReadsBooks@lemmy.ml 17 points 2 years ago (2 children) The Stanford Prison Experiment was a sham and couldn't be replicated. This Art project still seems gruesome.... permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] fubo@lemmy.world 22 points 2 years ago There was no experiment. There was a LARP, in which the GM explicitly instructed the players to be abusive to one another. So they did. After a couple days of this bullshit, the GM's girlfriend made him stop the game. permalink fedilink source parent [–] FinalRemix@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago It wasn't so much a sham as it was a gigantic mess, and that's the lesson. Zimbardo conducted one hell of a mess that had to be ditched less than halfway through and was only ditched because a grad student of his came in and was appalled by what he was letting happen as part of his "role" as the warden. He'd gotten directly involved in the study and as a result fucked it all up. permalink fedilink source parent
