Zmbardo's prison study was neatly conceptualized and the results were impressive.However,at a time when the majority of prison inmates are black and Hispanic,I question the external validity of a study where the subjects are not representative of the prison population. It would seem that he should have found a black college institution to conduct the study.There was not one black college prisoner or a black or hispanic prison guard.Gimme a break.
