Psych 150 Exam 4 Correctly Answered.
Zimbardo's prison experiment - CORRECT ANSWER Done at Stanford; August, 1971, 6 days;

assigned a group of students to play either the role of prison guard or prisoner; prisoners were locked
up in the basement of the psychology building, and the guards were put in charge of their treatment -
students took their assigned roles perhaps too well, and the experiment had to be ended early because
of the cruel treatment the guards were inflicting on the prisoners.

Milgram obedience experiment - CORRECT ANSWER Milgram selected participants for his experiment by
newspaper advertising for male participants to take part in a study of learning at Yale University. The
procedure was that the participant was paired with another person and they drew lots to find out who

always the teacher, and the learner was one of Milgram's confederates (pretending to be a real
participant).
