The Stanford Prison Experiment, led by psychology professor, Philip Ziimbardo in the year 1971, investigated the effects of perceived power and by focusing on the simulated relationship between prisoners and prison guards that the experiment prepared, it was shown, though not without strong controversies that have even put into question the methodology and results of the research, that people tend to adopt the roles they are given, even if randomly, modifying their behavior according to the demands imposed on them.
