Week Two Blog - The Daily Fathom: Stanford Prison Experiment

Through out the entirety of today’s discussion within The Dailey Fathom your minds will be stimulated with unbeknownst insight regarding what occurred during the infamous Stanford Prison Experiment. After viewing the video and listening to the commentary from the people involved with the experiment, the conclusion I have come to is quite similar to the one Mr. Zimbardo came to after 6 days. That conclusion is as follows, sometimes the most important pieces of reality slip through our grasp and we must react swiftly in order to regain control. The goings-on that were happening in the experiment got out of control shorty and there was a necessity of human remorse that had to be shown, resulting in the complete stop of the experiment. Since the experiment was shut down the eventual results were never determined but numerous things were learned about human behavior from what went on in those 6 short days.
