In the Stanford Prison Experiment, the guards had sunglasses on when interacting with the prisoners so as not to have eye contact. I think that was a big part of the experiment, but your cartoon did not have sunglasses so I thought I would share.

rossanna xx because humans require eye contact to create bonds and to communicate. When they use sunglasses it dehumanize them. For an example babies need eye contact to bond with their mothers. I don't remember exactly how or why. If you want to learn more, there are videos and documentation regarding it.

It's unfair to judge his character like this when he played out the character perfectly. He's one of the main characters to the center plot of the new trilogy, so they won't kill him off, or at least won't kill him off any time soon.

There was one fatal flaw in the Stanford prison experiment: The guy in charge was stage directing the whole thing. Zimbardo didn't step back and watch the events unfold as an observer; he played the part of head guard, even going so far as using these totally scientifically unbiased instructions to his student guards: "In general, what all this should create in them is a sense of powerlessness. We have total power in the situation. They have none.

Something to note about the prison experiment is that recently they found a lot of stuff that calls I to question the whole experiment. Like how they advertised to college students looking for guards and prisons. It may have been because college students just act like that and 2 that already aggresive people would be looking to be a guard and that the situation didnt make them like that. They also found that a lot of the participants, mostly the prisoners were acting crazy because they thought that's how they were supposed to be reacting. They were acting. Just something to keep in mind for new watchers.

All they really say is "Zimbardo did a study on how roles shape a situation. People respond to being casted roles by adhering to them. Zimbardo's study was dangerous and no one's allowed to do it again because it caused emotional harm", and then move on to talk, in detail, about the Milgram experiment instead.

I notice that it is being implied that anyone who is tempted to do bad things has 2 options: don't do it because it's bad, or do it because of the situation. I think there's another possibility here. Some people, more often in fiction, but also in real life, refuse to be tempted out of sheer contrariness: they don't want to do it BECAUSE the situation demands that they do it.
@Arrakiz6669 жыл бұрын
Then they don't do it because it's BAD. You seem to be thinking that not doing something because it's bad suggests that "bad" would be objective. It is not the case, what matters is what's bad to *you* specifically. See, bad is always subjective. There is no universal standard which people evaluate when they make decisions, there is only personal standard, being constantly influenced by social presure. This presure exerts such an influence that our personalities change to be more conformist, but situations differ and so not all people become more complisant over time. And I know this, because I am such a person you're reffering to. Being contrary for the sake of being contrary is a matter of staying true to yourself, it's a moral dillema in which you treat remaining yourself- not being pressured into action by outside sources, as a moraly GOOD decision. It's a moral choice in the same way that refusing to participate in stoning a person is a moral choice, derived from personal belief in value of nonviolnce, or human life, or the golden rule. Except that in this case the moral quality that is being "held on the line" as it were, is the personal belief of the value of nonconformism.

In either case, the person doing "good" here doesn't necessarily ever even bother to consider the moral content of the action they are expected to perform. So if this person had been instead ordered/pressured NOT to do some "bad" thing, they would possibly go ahead and do it just out of spite.

Situations affect our behavior. Depending on the different situations we face in our lives, our response tends to be positive or negative. A situation that is humiliating or makes us think low of ourselves leads us to take actions that could be harmful to somebody else or even ourselves. But such actions do not describe one’s overall behavior or personality and are restricted to specific situations. One should try to resolve the conflict between their thoughts and actions in a positive manner so that it could help them to better comprehend and react to situations in the future.

but what if your beliefs aren't necessarily "good"? Then wouldn't you want too? For example, you grew up being told blacks are not human and you believe that. If there was a situation where a black person was being tortured and you felt bad, then you wouldn't want to change your beliefs?
@RainAngel1119 жыл бұрын
That is one of the characteristics of an Idealist though. They always seek the "good". I change less important beliefs all the time, in order to be more flexible. But there are some beliefs I hold that I will never change, because I know they are tried and true "good" beliefs that, if compromised, would indicate a serious lack of moral fiber on my part. For example, if I had a choice between sacrificing my life to save someone else, or many people, or escaping and letting them die, well that's a hard choice to make. We praise and emulate this in movies, but in real life when it's you on the chopping block? The urge to live is very strong. The reason we idolize this behavior so much is partially because, in reality, it is very rare. For me, if I were to have to make that decision, the only way I would not choose to save their life, is if the whole situation happened so fast, I couldn't save them in time, say like jumping in front of a bullet. But if it was like, choose, should I shoot you? or this stranger? I would choose myself. I honestly can't imagine living after that, if I chose the stranger. You could say I'd do it for honor. My moral integrity to me is more valuable than my life.

It is important to remember that the Stanford Prison Experiment, and the related Milgram Obedience Study, are rather contentious within academic circles, for their methods and ambiguity. Philip Zimbardo was involved in the experiment as a guard, and therefore has been accused of putting his finger on the scale, so to speak. Additionally, neither experiment had a strong hypothesis, something that is important in creating and running an experiment.

I know Walter Mischel, before he did his work on self-control that came to be called "The Marshmallow Test", did a bunch of work on this and argued that personality traits were actually situational rather than consistent across many different situations.

The question isn’t why did exhibit X do bad. The question is why is a thing considered good to us, and why instead is some opposing thing considered bad…and what was their attraction to said thing. There isn’t really a good bad right or wrong in the brain, only attraction and repulsion.

Great episode! I really like Social Psychology studies, it makes wonderful bases for storytelling. :) BTW, you mentioned Stanford Experiment and prof. Zimbardo. After all the terrible repercution that his fake-prison experiment had, he actually invested a lot of effort in other projects, one of the latest is the Heroic Imagination Project, dedicated to promoting heroism in everyday life. Pretty cool, huh?

+Manabender Take a look at the Thomas Hobbes point of view. He believed that people are naturally bad, and brings up good points. However, John Locke believed that humans are naturally good, and brings up good points as well. People have the ability to do both. Never, EVER underestimate the average person's ability to be an enormous help, friend, supporter, etc.

How is the Zimbardo experiment still even relevant for this video? By today's standards it's highly unethical, the subjects were not randomly selected and personally I could see how the would take it too far just to impress the professor, not even cause that's how they would naturally act.

I think he's mentioning the Zimbardo experiment because it has become "a classic": a thing that everyone is expected to have heard of. Freud is pretty widely discredited, but an intro to psych class has to mention him in passing because he was influential for so long. Hopefully in 20 years, the same will be true of Zimbardo and we'll talk about the work of Walter Mischel (AKA, the Marshmallow test guy) on the influence of situation on personality traits.

I heard the experiment wasn't exactly to the standards of the scientific method. the guards were (to my understanding) asked to be aggressive, and heavy reports of police brutality influenced behavior. TD;LR no control group
@boopboop93569 жыл бұрын
wanderingdude777 So what your saying is..It wasn't done according to the scientific method because the guards were told to be brutal and there were other pollice being brutal? but, isn't that kind of related? Like, how people are influenced based on what authority tells you to do, and what other people are doing around you? Which is basically the situation? Which John Green was talking about influences how people act?

Pooja Sandhu It wasn't performed to the scientific method for a number of reasons. It was terrible science at the time and only became famous because it was shocking. It's basically the 70s equivalent of that one study that showed a link between autism and vaccines (even though the study was awful and has been heavily discredited).

About 5:21,can't amoral attitudes be strengthened by moral actions as well?. The definition of Leon Festinger's theory of cognitive dissonance reminds me of Sartre's "bad faith" idea in a really round-about way but Hank calling in an "inverted ('..tendency for observers,when analyzing another's behavior, to underestimate the impact of the situation and to overestimate the impact of the personal disposition) fundamental attribution error" is handy as well.

the japanese military during ww2 would get teenagers to chant slogan of Japanese superiority while wearing military uniforms. then they would get them to pick and choose a farm tool to kill chickens and hogs with it. later that week, the leaders would have these kids do that to dead bodies to mutilated them. then would have them do that to capture prisoners. then they would have them do that to Chinese civilians woman and children. the process of dehumanization is complete. side note. i think this is a major reason why Chinese /Japanese / Korean women don't talk about spousal abuse. the cultural residue of war. this exercise can also be done by one's sexual lust for abusing animals and people. serial killers like jeffrey dahmer start out by getting a sexual high from killing and mutilating neighborhood pets /animals, the evidence is buried in this family back yard. later he went on to do the same to people. this is the human frailty at it's weakest. you see this all around the world, even today on a smaller less domated scale. the cheap thrill are the bully on the web.

I think this happens to me at my job. Typically I would not support the company I work for, but I need the money so I rationalize that it's okay. Or typically I do not associate with people that I don't agree with or who I can tell have no regard for me, but I must if I want my job. The latter I refuse to feel is okay, though. So it is still unresolved. I feel the cognitive dissonance.
