The main takeaway of the Stanford experiment is social roles are powerful determinants of human behavior.

<h3>What is the Stanford Prison Experiment?</h3>

Zimbardo and his colleagues wanted to know if the brutality reported among guards in American prisons was due to the guards' sadistic personalities (i.e., dispositional) or had more to do with the prison environment (i.e., situational).

The Stanford Prison Experiment, according to Zimbardo and his colleagues, revealed how people readily conform to the social roles they are expected to play, especially when the roles are as strongly stereotyped as those of prison guards. When the guards were given authority, they began to act in ways they would not normally act in their normal lives.

Therefore. the environment (prison) was an important factor in creating the guards' brutal behavior. The findings support the situational rather than the dispositional explanation of behavior.
