cestrela7 [59]

Ronson explores the idea that many corporate and governmental leaders are psychopaths whose actions to others can only be explained by taking that fact into account, and he privately uses the Hare test to determine if he can discern any truth to it.

PART A: What does the word “deindividuation” mean as it is used in paragraph 7?
topjm [15]

Answer:

D. The process of stripping someone of their identity.

Explanation:

The term individual comes from Latin word "individuus" meaning indivisible or inseparable. In English, today, it means one, single, separate object or a person.

So, in analogy to this, deindividuation is a term meaning losing oneself's identity and individual characteristics to a group.

The participants in this Stanford Prison Experiment lost all of their individual traits; they gained characteristics of the group they belonged to (prisoners or guards) and acted in the way it was expected of them, not the way they would normally do.
