Brief Argument on Zimbardo’s Experiment In “The Stanford prison Experiment” that was written by Philip K. Zimbardo. Zimbardo develops a study to see if the average college student will change in a prison like atmosphere. Zimbardo wanted to see if the prisoners would lose their minds and privacy in the experiment. He also wanted to see if the guards would gain social power, by controlling the prisoners actions and what they do. Zimbardo was a professor of psychology at Stanford University, and his experiment was set up to study the process by which prisoners and guards learn to become compliant and authoritarian. Zimbardo set up a bunch of posters and placed them all over the campus at Stanford that said for summer experiment we will pay $15 per day for 1-2 weeks. 75 students responded to the posters. So Zimbardo and his staff had to have an audition for 21 spots on the experiment staff. 11 would be guards and 10 would be prisoners. So after all of the auditions they never told the students when the experiment would start.
