Stanford Prison Study

I believe that prisoner 8612 changed the most from this study. He was willing to pretend to go crazy just to get out of this fake prison. He was really concerned about what was happening and he was willing to change himself completely. Other people changed throughout the experiment but the thing about 8612 was he changed so quickly, he was the first person to actually change himself to fit the role of this prison. Others began to change after this, but I really believe he opened the gate for the others to change themselves as well. I thought this experiment was never a good idea. Right from the start it sounds like it could easily go bad. People would changed to make there lives easier or better. And others wouldn't change because of there dignity.
