  • The use of ID numbers was a way to make prisoners feel anonymous. Each prisoner had to be called only by his ID number and could only refer to himself and the other prisoners by number.

      Prisonners where assigned a number. They where not called upon by their names but by their numbers and there heads where shaved to express equality amongst prisonners and loss on identity

  • The guards were given no specific training on how to be guards. Instead they were free, within limits, to do whatever they thought was necessary to maintain law and order in the prison and to command the respect of the prisoners.

  • The prisoner was then issued a uniform. The main part of this uniform was a dress, or smock, which each prisoner wore at all times with no underclothes. On the smock, in front and in back, was his prison ID number. On each prisoner's right ankle was a heavy chain, bolted on and worn at all times. Rubber sandals were the footwear, and each prisoner covered his hair with a stocking cap made from a woman's nylon stocking.

      Prisoners and guards where given uniforms to play their roles in the experiment. Chains where put on the prisonners so they could really feel like they where stuck in prison.

  • At 2:30 A.M. the prisoners were rudely awakened from sleep by blasting whistles for the first of many "counts." The counts served the purpose of familiarizing the prisoners with their numbers (counts took place several times each shift and often at night). But more importantly, these events provided a regular occasion for the guards to exercise control over the prisoners

      This website is very interesting because it explains that their is an architectural difference in the brain of a psychopath compared to a healthy brain. The areas that are different are the amygdala, which is associated with emotions, fear and agression, and the oribitofrontal cortex (OFC), which is responsible for the decision making. There is white matter that connects the amygdala and the OFC, which is called uncinate fasciculus (UF). They found a significant reduction in the integrity of the small particles that compose the UF of psychopaths compared to control groups of people with the same age and IQ. The degree of abnormality was significantly related to the degree of psychopathy.

  • significance of these findings cannot be underestimated
  • the biological basis of psychopathy remains poorly understood
  • To date, nobody has investigated the 'connectivity' between the specific brain regions implicated in psychopathy.
  • Earlier studies had suggested that dysfunction of specific brain regions might underpin psychopathy
  • amygdale
  • the degree of abnormality was significantly related to the degree of psychopathy. These results suggest that psychopaths have biological differences in the brain which may help to explain their offending behaviours.

    ScienceDaily is one of the most popular scientific news web sites since 1995. As of 1995, ScienceDaily has won the loyalty of the public (i.e. students, researchers, health care professionals, government agencies, educators and the general public). If all those members of our society can trust this website that has won multiple awards, so can I. I am a part of the 3 million monthly viewers that trust this website that proves to be very credible. I also found this website using www.sweetsearch.com which the student of Mrs. Bambic's psychology class of 2012 have been told is credible and used by many professionals around the world.
