Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The events at Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq can be linked to Zimbardo's classic prisoner study because the abusive behavior exhibited by the U.S. military at Abu Ghraib mirrors the behavior seen in the study. Both situations involved a power imbalance and dehumanizing treatment of the "prisoners" by those in authority. The study's findings of how easily people can slip into abusive behavior when given power over others can provide insight into the atrocities committed at Abu Ghraib.
