Let's not get all "Philip Zimbardo sucks" here. The Stanford Prison Experiment was, no doubt, a tragic error. But, Zimbardo is, without question, a brilliant mind in psychology. Indeed, if he wasn't, he wouldn't have been named the president of the American Psychological Association. It is easy to harshly criticize his methods in the prison experiment, but part of the reason there are more precise rules for methodology in psychological experiments is because of that very experiment.
