New Zimbardo Research – A Survey

2008 April 28

Phil ZimbardoYou may know him from the Stanford Prison experiment. Maybe you used his “Psychology and Life” text book in college or saw his “Discovery Psychology” TV series on PBS. Or perhaps you’ve read his recent book, “The Lucifer Effect”. Now Phil Zimbardo needs you.

Dr. Philip Zimbardo, with a team of researchers, is beginning a new study concerning helpful behavior. The goal is to discover how individuals perceive the behavior of helpfulness.

The first step is to conduct a survey with as many participants as possible. That’s where you come in. The survey takes about 30 minutes and can be found at www.socialpsychresearch.org.

I’ve been part of the development of this survey. Zeno Franco and Kathy Blau, more so. So obviously I’d love it if you could complete the survey and make sure this study flies.

Welcome BoingBoing readers.  You can find more about the Hero Workshop at thejanuscenter.com/heroworkshop.  Thanks for filling out the survey.

UPDATE (9/30/09): The survey has finished and unfortunately the website has been taken over by spammers.
