- PRIOR TO THE STUDY
- PARTICIPANTS
- recruited by adverts in the national press, were
screened as well as adjusted and pro-social.
- fully assessed over a weekend, provided
medical and character references and
during this screening process 332 male
applicants were reduced to 27.
- From this 27, 15 men were chosen to represent diversity in
age, class and ethnicity.
- matched on personality variables into five groups of three
and one from each group was allocated as a guard and the
other two as prisoners- thus there were five guards and ten
prisoners.

- PROCEDURE
- GUARD INITATION
- evening prior to the study guards told they had been selected
- shown prison timetables, informed about their duties, roll calls
and their responsibility to "ensure institution runs smoothly"
- asked to draw up rules and punishments- no
violence allowed.
- had superior accommodation, good quality
uniform, superior meals, keys to all doors
and punishment cell, assess to the guard
station with a surveillance system which
could view all cells and resources such as
sweets to give as rewards.

- evening prior to the study guards told they had been selected
- PRISONER INITATION
- arrived one at a time
- three man cells
- hair was shaved on arrival, their uniform
was a t-shirt having a three digit number
- loose trousers and sandals
- NO VIOLENCE WAS ALLOWED, a list of rules and prisoners rights on the wall

- VARIABLES MANIPULATED
- The permeablity of the rules
- although the guards were told that they had been selected on various
criteria, participants were told the tests were not always reliable thus
that prisoners could be promoted to guards on day three.

- Legitimacy of rules
- day three prisoners would be told that there
was really no difference between prisoners and
guards but that it was impractial to reassign
roles thus causing the perception that group
differences were not legitimate.

- Cognitive alternatives
- on the fourth day a new prisoner, chosen because
of his background as a Trade Union official was
introduced to provide the skills required to
organise "collective action"

- The permeablity of the rules
- RESULTS
- the guards did not develop group ideniity/coherence,
they could not agree norms/priorities and did not
internalise the power role.
- Until day three, when one prisoner was promoted to guard, individual
self interest predominated in prisoners as each prisoner tried to show the
qualities that might lead to promotion.
- After day three, when roles were fixed the prisoners did develop group
identity and as a group challenged the guards, this led to a shift in power
and a collapse of the prisoner/guard system
- On day six prisoners broke out of cells and
the regime of the guards was ended. All
decided to continue as a self-governing
"commune" but the prisoner who had led
the challenges did not co-operate.
- By day eight more authoritarian system of
inequality was being proposed by some. The
study ended on day eight.

- CONCLUSIONS
- the way in which members of the group behave may
be pro or anti-social, and depends on the norms and
values of the group social identity.
- falling groups create problems for their own members, and for others,
because when people cannot create a social system they will accept
extreme solutions proposed by others.
- It is the breakdown of groups, and
powerless, that create the condition
for tyranny.
- It is possible to design and run powerful social
psychological research studies that are also
ethical.
