The experiment

The Experiment was the largest field study in social psychology for the last 30 years. It was designed and conducted by two senior British academics, Alex Haslam and Stephen Reicher, and filmed by the BBC. It was a ground-breaking investigation into power, group conflict and the roots of tyranny. The program focuses on the behaviour of 15 participants who have been assigned to roles as prisoners and guards within a purpose-built environment over a period of nine days. Cameras and microphones recorded everything that was done and said, and the observational date obtained was complemented by daily psychometric and physiological measures. The results provide fascinating, powerful and thought-provoking insights into processes of social, clinical and organisational psychology. They offer vivid, powerful and dramatic examples that bring alive topics such as leadership, conflict and co-operation, work satisfaction and stress, tyranny and resistance, power and powerlessness, research, methodology and social scientific theory.

  • "In a copy of the classic Stanford Prison experiment, 20 men are thrust into a custom-built prison environment. At random the group is split into prisoners and guards. For the rest of their 'term', they must keep these roles. With hidden cameras and perceptive psychologists, we watch events develop in this volatile scenario."@en
