Zimbardo and his colleagues (1973) were interested in finding out whether the brutality reported among guards in American prisons was due to the sadistic personalities of the guards (i.e., dispositional) or had more to do with the prison environment (i.e., situational).

                                      Just Some More Information

To study the roles people play in prison situations, Zimbardo converted a basement of the Stanford University psychology building into a mock prison.

He advertised asking for volunteers to participate in a study of the psychological effects of prison life.

The 75 applicants who answered the ad were given diagnostic interviews and personality tests to eliminate candidates with psychological problems, medical disabilities, or a history of crime or drug abuse.

24 men judged to be the most physically & mentally stable, the most mature, & the least involved in antisocial behaviors were chosen to participate. The participants did not know each other prior to the study and were paid $15 per day to take part in the experiment.

Write an informative essay that explains the importance of perseverance as a quality people need to achieve success. Your essay
Helga [31]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

To write my essay I would like to base my ideas on the section of the attached document called "But they Did not Give Up."

Nothing compares to perseverance.

Most people surrender just before getting to the top. Yes, they do their best for a while, and when they are about to get what they want, they surrender.

Even worst, when they try something and it does not work, they surrender. And if somebody criticizes them or judges them, they never try again.

But the great ones, all of them failed in their first, second, even third time. Buy, what they did have in common? Perseverance. They never surrendered.

The importance of perseverance as a quality people need to achieve success is of the utmost importance in our lives. Things are never easy. They require effort, hard work, commitment, and perseverance.

Winston Churchill was no so good at school. But he never gave in, never. And that made him the great leader he was. Nobody believed in Charles Darwin, even his own father. But he never listened to them and he became the great man of science he was. Albert Einstein's family thought he was "subnormal," and see, he became one of the greatest minds of all times.

So the message is clear. No matter if you have talent or not. Work hard, be disciplined, committed, and never, ever give in.

Write 5 sentences describing a bad day you had.
matrenka [14]

Answer: It was the first high school football game and I was so excited; I had been looking forward to this day since the first day of school. I was now part of a team and I was loving every minute. Just as they call my name I take off running full of anticipation for the first play of the game. Before I made it to the sidelines, I felt my knee pop and down I went. Needless to say, my spirits were crushed and I never got to experience that first game play.
