TEACHSOC: Re: Human Behavior Experiments Documentary

[Del Thomas Ph D]

Jan, What do these two studies have to do with ethics in research? Del Jan Buhrmann wrote: These two experiments are also useful for illustrating and teaching about ethics (or the lack thereof) in social research. Thanks for sharing this information on tonight's program! - Jan Buhrmann ========================== Jan Buhrmann, Ph.D. Assistant Professor Department of Sociology Illinois College (217)245-3877 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ===== Original Message From "Klein, Lloyd" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ===== Anyone engaged in teaching the topic of obedience and social control may want to check out a documentary screening on both Court TV and the Sundance Channel tonight at 10 eastern time (adjust for your own time zone). The Human Behavior Experiments documentary focuses on the Milgram and Zimbardo experiments. As you may know, the Zimbardo prison experiment was cited as an explanation of the behavior at Abu Ghraib. Zimbardo offers more information on his own website. In addition, the documentary covers an infamous incident at a McDonald's restaurant in Mt. Washington, Kentucky. Other cases are also cited. For more information, check out a rather informative television review in today's edition of the New York Times.
