A

Dehumanisation, the removal of human identity, was increased by prisoners wearing:

  1. Numbered smocks

Philip Zimbardo’s study of prisoners and guards in a simulated prison (1973):
The method and procedure of Zimbardo’s prison simulation study was that:
1. 75 male university students responded to a newspaper advertisement asking for volunteers for a study of prison life paying $15 a day.
21 students rated as the most physically and mentally stable, mature and free from anti-social and criminal tendencies were used, 10 as guards and 11 as prisoners.
Selection as to who would be guards and who would be prisoners was on a random basis.
All participants initially expressed a desire to be prisoners.
Zimbardo himself played the role of the prison superintendent.
