- Stanford Prison Study (AO3)
- Ethical issues: prisoners experienced psychological harm due to humilation from guards
- Demand characteristics - some guards claimed they were acting
- Study also lacks population validity as it only consisted of US male students
- Altered the way prisons in America are run - juveniles are no longer housed before trial with adult prisoners
- Zimbardo did test the student before they took part so the outcomes were not predicted
