[The purpose of the experiment is to prove:

When an ordinary person is placed in a special environment, or is given some special rights, or is defined as a special identity, no matter what his original personality is, he will have corresponding psychological and behavioral changes according to the changes in this environment or identity. 】

[In simple terms, a person's psychology and behavior are not determined by the person's personality or quality, but by the environment. 】

……

The plane of Taizu of the Great Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang asked Zhu Biao:

"Boss, what do you think about this question?"

Zhu Biao replied:

"An ancient sage once said: A rush growing among hemp will stand straight without support; white sand in mud will turn black. I think people's personality and behavior are indeed affected by the external environment."

"However, people in the past and later generations also said that people's personality is actually determined to a large extent by innate genes."

"Maybe it is determined by both the external environment and innate genes?"

Zhu Biao proposed a compromise view.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly.

He also thought it might be so.

……

[In the summer of 1971, under the leadership of Zimbardo, the research team transformed the basement of the psychology department building at Stanford University into a prison. ]

[In order to make it realistic enough, they also interviewed prison guards and criminals who had been in prison, and made all the details in place. 】

……

"What is this for?"

"Is the prison experiment about arresting people and putting them in jail?"

Many ancient people in the past dynasties speculated in their hearts.

……

[With the "prison", the research team began to recruit volunteers. 】

[They published recruitment information in the local newspaper and promised that volunteers participating in the experiment could get 15 US dollars a day for a total of 14 hours. 】

[This money was a lot of money for college students at that time. 】

[So, many people signed up to participate. 】

[After layers of interviews and psychological tests, a total of 24 normal volunteers with healthy bodies and mature minds were finally selected. 】

[The research team randomly divided these 24 people into two groups, one group acted as prison guards, and the other group acted as prisoners. Each group kept 3 people as backup. ]

……

The Great Han Emperor Wu plane.

Looking at the giant screen in the sky, Liu Che suddenly felt a familiar feeling.

After a little thought, he remembered.

In the previous video, a similar experiment was mentioned. 11 also gathered many different people, played different roles, and then let these people act according to their roles.

"Is such an experimental result credible?"

"Can an experiment with just a few dozen people represent the general situation?"

Some thoughts suddenly emerged in Liu Che's mind.Doubt.

He was a little skeptical about the credibility of this experimental result.

In later times, this is actually similar to the question of how much sample size affects the experimental results.

Liu Che naturally did not know these professional psychological experimental knowledge, he just had doubts based on common sense.

……

[On the first day of imprisonment, the original names of all "prisoners" were replaced by digital codes, and the "warnings" also wore standard uniforms and sunglasses and began to get into the role. ]

[The "warden" Zimbardo prepared paper and pen for the "prisoners" on the first night, asked them to write to the person they wanted to see the most, and told them that the person they wanted to see the most would come on the visiting day two days later. ]

[When Zimbardo read their letters, he found that a "prisoner" signed his name with "Prisoner: 2093", which was his prisoner number, not his original name. 】

【For the "prisoners": the first step in entering the experiment is the loss of their self-identity. 】

……

"Why is this happening?"

Many ancient people in the past dynasties were shocked and puzzled.

The plane of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin's eyes were full of thought.

"Does this prisoner No. 2093 really think of himself as a prisoner because of the influence of the prison environment, or is he cooperating with the experiment?"

If it is the former, it has undoubtedly partially proved the influence of the environment on people.

……

【At first, the "prisoners" were very casual. They thought it was just an experiment and they didn't take it too seriously. They didn't take the "prison guards" seriously at all, let alone obey them. 】

【At this time, in order to establish their own majestic image, the "prison guards" began to discuss countermeasures. 】

【They used their power to blow whistles in the middle of the night to let all the prisoners practice more. 】

【Faced with the disobedient prisoner 8612, the "prison guards" agreed to take turns to punish prisoner 8612 to make an example of him. 】

【The experiment progressed faster than Zimbardo could have imagined. 】

【Before the experiment began, the "prison guards" were asked not to hit the prisoners. 】

【But on the first night, they broke the rules. Facing the extremely uncooperative prisoner 8612, the "prison guards" waved their batons. 】

……

Daqin plane.

Qin Shihuang's eyes narrowed slightly.

He felt that the performance of these people who played the "prison guards" was a little bit wrong.

Normally, if these "prison guards" were not extremely vicious, they would not be so violent if they knew that those "prisoners" were all "fake prisoners".

"Interesting."

Qin Shi Huang's eyes became more focused as he looked at the giant screen in the sky.

...

[The next day, the "prison guards" who were not restrained became even more unscrupulous. ]

[Where there is oppression, there will be resistance. The "prison guards"The worsening of the situation caused the anger of the "prisoners". They broke through the small partitions of the prison and blocked the prison door with beds to prevent the "prison guards" from coming in. 】

[The "prison guards" were very angry after seeing this. They were no longer afraid of the treaty provisions. They sprayed the "prisoners" with fire extinguishers, stripped the "prisoners" of their clothes, arrested the "prisoners" who led the trouble and put them in solitary confinement, and intimidated other "prisoners". 】

[At the same time, the "prison guards" found the three people with the lightest crimes in the resistance activities, put them in a compartment alone, and treated them better than other "prisoners". 】

[After half a day, the "prison guards" put the three people back to other prisons. 】

……

The plane of Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Di pondered in his heart.

He saw through the little tricks of the "prison guards".

It is nothing more than to sow discord among the "prisoners" and destroy their unity by treating them differently, so that the "prison guards" can better deal with them.

What he cares more about at this moment is the intensification of the struggle between the "prison guards" and the "prisoners".

Both sides seem to have forgotten that they are just playing roles, not real prison guards and prisoners.

"Is this because they are in a prison-like environment?"

"Does the environment really have such a big impact on people's behavior and personality?"

Zhu Di kept thinking in his heart.

...

[On the third day of the experiment, the observation group found that the attitudes of the "prison guards" became worse and worse. ]

[They will strictly call the "prisoners" three times a day, including one late at night. 】

[And regardless of day or night, it is strictly forbidden for "prisoners" to communicate with each other. This is not in the rules. The rules only say that "prisoners" and "prison guards" cannot talk, but these prison guards will require "prisoners" not to communicate with each other. 】

[For disobedient "prisoners", they will lock them in a small dark room, not let them go to the toilet, or punish them to do push-ups, and even start to torture "prisoners". 】

[These behaviors were not arranged by the experimenter, but were thought up by these "prison guards". 】

"These prison guards are too much!"

This idea emerged in the minds of many ancient people in all dynasties. (To read the violent novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

And they were more and more shocked.

Because they felt that this situation was becoming more and more like a real prison.

These fake "prison guards" completely treated these "fake prisoners" as "real prisoners".

"Just a few days can make people's personalities change so much?"

Many ancient people in the past dynasties found it unbelievable. []

……

[From the fourth day, the "prisoners" also changed. They began to become very obedient. No one resisted anymore. They obeyed the excessive demands of the prison guards, and these prison guards became moreArrogant. 】

[On the fifth day, the "prison guards" began to show some anti-human behavior, such as ordering the "prisoners" to lie on the ground and then stepping on them with their feet, while other "prisoners" would only stand aside and watch, and had no intention of resisting. 】

……

Spring and Autumn and Warring States plane.

Xunzi sighed softly: "Human nature is evil!".

He felt that it was not the environment that made these "prison guards" become bad people, but this experiment and environment that stimulated the evil of these "prison guards" themselves.

……

[At this time, the monitoring team found that some "prisoners" had obvious mental disorders, such as shaking bodies and nausea. 】

[So, Zimbardo invited a pastor who was doing psychological counseling in a real prison to go in and see these "prisoners". 】

【After watching, the pastor told Zimbardo that these fake "prisoners" had shown the same state as the "prisoners" in the real prison. He thought that this experiment was extremely inhumane and should be terminated immediately, but Zimbardo refused. 】

……

"How could this happen?"

Many ancient people from all dynasties were shocked again.

This situation made them feel incredible.

In just a few days, how could these experimental subjects who knew they were "fake prisoners" regard themselves as "real prisoners"?

Is the influence of the environment really so great that it can completely distort people's behavior and cognition?

……

【Later, on the 6th day, all the other people who participated in the experimental monitoring felt that the experiment was becoming extremely inhumane, so they asked to terminate the experiment, even Zimbardo's girlfriend, asked him to terminate the experiment. 】

【Finally, Zimbardo terminated the experiment. The experiment was originally planned to last for two weeks, but it was terminated after only six days. 】

【Although the experiment was terminated, Zimbardo believed that he had obtained the answer he wanted, that is, people will undergo psychological and even personality changes as their environment or status changes. 】

【In fact, it was not only these "prison guards" who turned into demons during the experiment, but also Zimbardo himself. 】

【People around him found that Zimbardo also seemed to have some personality changes, such as immersing himself in the role of warden and wanting to carry out this experiment thoroughly. 】

……

"Is this experiment so terrible?"

The ancients of all dynasties were shocked.

They didn't expect that even the people who designed this experiment would be negatively affected.

……

【Later, Zimbardo wrote a book called "The Lucifer Effect: How Good People Become Demons", which detailed the experiment and his conclusions. 】

[The so-called "Lucifer Effect" refers to:

Under certain circumstances, the personality, thinking and behavior of some ordinary people and social groups with pure naturesThe way of behavior will suddenly degenerate due to external influences, and the "evil" in human nature will be released, and collective immoral behavior and even crimes against humanity will occur. 】

……

Spring and Autumn and Warring States plane.

Xunzi does not agree with this so-called "Lucifer effect".

Because what he saw from this statement is that good and evil coexist in human nature.

And he firmly believes that human nature is evil and good is a disguise.

……

[The Stanford Prison Experiment shocked people. ]

[In just five days, young people with mature minds, law-abiding, and college education turned into demons with violent tendencies. ]

[At the end of the experiment, one of the prison guards said: "I can't believe I can do such a thing. I feel so sorry for myself."]

[Not only that, some of the conclusions of this experiment are also very consistent with the view of the book "The Crowd", that is, many people are easily influenced by the group and lose their reason. 】

The barrage flew out:

"Really, the two do have something in common."

"The Crowd": When a person enters a group, his IQ is seriously reduced. In order to gain recognition, individuals are willing to abandon right and wrong and use their IQ to exchange for a sense of belonging that makes people feel safe."

"Reply - This sentence is more accurate: what the group pursues and believes in is never truth and rationality, but blind obedience, cruelty, paranoia and fanaticism, and only knows simple and extreme emotions."

"Reply - It's the unconsciousness of the group. In the group, individuals are prone to lose self-awareness and rationality, and are often manipulated by people with ulterior motives."

"Reply - Yes, the group is an amplifier of emotions, so it is easy to be attracted by extreme views."

"Reply - "The Crowd" said that only the most extreme people can Become a leader. ”

“Reply--You might as well report the ID number of the failed art student directly.”

“Reply--In fact, it feels that the Hans Leopard country during World War II was in a state of collective unconsciousness, which is why it was brainwashed by the Nazis.”

“Reply--Although, the writing style of "The Crowd" also uses the way of influencing the group mentioned in the book: repetition, assertion and contagion, which is not rigorous and scientific enough.”

“Reply--Is it possible that it is this kind of imprecision and unscientificness that has brought huge influence to the book "The Crowd", and then reversely verified this statement.”

“Reply--Good guy, you know how to think critically.”

“…”

Many ambitious people in all dynasties who had ideas such as usurping the throne or rebelling looked at the giant screen in the sky, their hearts were shocked, and their eyes were bright.

The contents discussed in the barrage gave them a lot of inspiration.

It can be said that it provided theoretical guidance and pointed out the direction for their great cause.

“Group unconsciousness”, “extreme views are more likely to influence the group”, “repetition, assertion and contagion” and other statements make these ambitionsThe experts felt that their eyes were opened.

Based on these theories, these ambitious people began to plan various strategies to incite the people in their minds.

At the same time.

On the other side.

Many emperors of all dynasties also thought that these theories might be used by people with ulterior motives, and their faces suddenly became solemn.

……

[The Stanford Prison Experiment has also been included in many psychology textbooks and has become the most famous psychology experiment in the history of psychology. ]

[However, many people have questioned the ethics of this experiment. ]

[Even worse, they have questioned the authenticity of the experiment, believing that this is not a psychology experiment at all, but just a show, a scam. ]

[In mid-2018, journalist Brin once questioned this experiment. After collecting a lot of evidence, he pointed out that the volunteers were just "interpreting" the experiment according to Zimbardo's expectations. 】

[In addition, he also found that other research teams could not reproduce this experiment at all. 】

[And when Zimbardo published his paper, it was not reviewed by his peers. 】

[And Zimbardo also responded to these doubts one by one. 】

[As for who is more reliable, it depends on you to judge. 】

……

Listen to the last conclusion of the video.

Many ancient people in all dynasties have different views on this "Stanford Prison Experiment".

Some people believe it is true, and some people think it is a scam.

As for what the truth is, later generations have not figured it out, and the ancients naturally have no way of knowing it.

Soon.

The conclusion is finished.
