Zimbardo's experiment would never be allowed today, and there has been much criticism of his methodology and his lack of overview. I interned briefly with his wife, Christina Maslach, in the '80's, so I find it interesting that she is listed as one of the contributors.
Given that this is Zimbardo's website and is dedicated to his failed experiment, I would strongly recommend that everyone seek out other professional opinions regarding his prison research. Your opinion might change if you do. My opinion (sorry, Christina) is that this experiment was botched from the beginning, but Zimbardo has a vested interest in perpetuating his one claim to fame.
