I happened across a headline from the Scientific American RSS Feed that said “Blog: Stanford Prison Experiment Videos on Youtube”. I’d read about this experiment before, and I find that generally a documentary video can be a good compliment to the “book knowledge” gained from reading about it.
It is on Youtube in 5 parts (due to the 10 min. length limitation), but is also on Google Video in one piece (50 minutes) since they don’t have a length limitation:
This video appears to have been put together sometime in the 80s. It is well edited, and contains a lot of interesting information that you may not necessarily notice as easily in the literature surrounding the experiment.
Warning: This video contains explicit content (cursing, degrading acts, disturbing situations). Watch at your own discretion.
