We all function in several social roles. In a minimum of 200 words, describe how social roles, social norms, and scripts were evident in the Stanford prison experiment. Use The official Stanford Prison Experiment as a resource. Then, consider three social roles you adopted for yourself or were born into. Identify them and explain how you learned to function in those roles and know your scripts. Does operant conditioning play a role? If so, how? If not, explain why.
Have you ever noticed that when someone you like does something that you consider inappropriate, you might cover for them or make it about the situation and not about their behavior? Or when someone you don’t like does the exact same thing as the one you are fond of, do you blame it on their character? In a minimum of 200 words, compare situational influences and dispositional influences and give an example of each. Explain how situational influences and dispositional influences might explain inappropriate behavior. Finally, in the context of the provided scenario, in what instances are dispositional influences overemphasized compared to situational influences (and vice versa)? And what assumption explains this?
