rossanna xx because humans require eye contact to create bonds and to communicate. When they use sunglasses it dehumanize them. For an example babies need eye contact to bond with their mothers. I don't remember exactly how or why. If you want to learn more, there are videos and documentation regarding it.

Very interesting. Thanks for sharing. Maybe this is an additional reason why bicyclists have trouble with car drivers? (they usually wear glasses and car drivers of course are hidden already.) Here is a series that addresses the topic, but this is not covered...interesting. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b9mKgtOYutG-pIU.html

They were also given them to further define their roles as prison guards. This provided a stark contrast to the prisoners who were in sacks

Plus, the guards have no name badge on their uniform to emphasize the anonimity,

Kortez ok racist

Yea, I hate psychologists, because I was around them a lot because of some stuff that happened a few years ago with my dad. Then again, I act like a psychologist, I'll just go around watching people's reactions to the world... I'm weird

Look into groupthink/group behavior if you want to see something really scary.

TheFireflyGrave I highly recommend it. The quality is great!

That's what I was thinking!

+deycallmemari And yet for some reason even after he committed all of those atrocities he still couldn't kill his son.

+Keovar this just reminded me exactly why kylo ren is such a hilarious character in contrast

Kylo was meant to start out as childish. Over the next few movies, he should mature more and either return home at some point of go full dark side. It's unfair to judge his character like this when he played out the character perfectly. He's one of the main characters to the center plot of the new trilogy, so they won't kill him off, or at least won't kill him off any time soon. There's still 5 or so more movies to come; two more main ones and about three spin-offs (the first being Rogue One).

Kylo Ren is a better character than he is a villain.

Best part of this video.

Then stop

Robert Langford No.

Okay, then deal with it

Robert Langford I am dumbass. I never complained about it.

You are dumbass? Commas really do make the sentence in some cases

i love reading comments and listening to the video but I mostly just end up focusing on the reading :( not much of a multitasker lmao

No one is. The brain can only focus on one thing at once. Switching back and forth between comments & video is mentally taxing and difficult to maintain. Just read the comments after the video.

+ゆき nah I can't do that

Remember the blind spot bias --- it's easier for us to identify biases in other people than in ourselfs. or, less politely expressed: we tend to believe that we are less likely to be biased and manipulated than other people.

so tue

Well truly random subject are pretty hard to find aren't they ?

THANK YOU! There were no ethical standards at all when they put that experiment together.

troty99 Well they don't need to be completely random but it would have been better if they weren't all college students, that I think went to the same college. Just the fact that some of the students want to impress the professor skews the results a ton!

troty99 The experimenter chose the subjects from a pool, rather than choosing randomly. This lets in personal biases and other random variables that partially or completely invalidate their findings. There's a reason sociology is regarded as a 'soft' science, compared to things like physics and mathematics.

It shouldn't be called an experiment. Is should be called an incident, like any other thing non-reproducable that happened in history. We can still learn from it, but we should cite other things that are actually reproducable far more often.

***** Good point.

***** Uhhhhh, I think a video about social thinking is probably the perfect place to discuss the media's effect on gender roles.

***** it must be very interesting to have a conversation with you.

***** No random hostility here. Nope. Nu-uh.

To get back to the question, I think this is more in the field of sociology.

agree)

Then they don't do it because it's BAD. You seem to be thinking that not doing something because it's bad suggests that "bad" would be objective. It is not the case, what matters is what's bad to *you* specifically. See, bad is always subjective. There is no universal standard which people evaluate when they make decisions, there is only personal standard, being constantly influenced by social presure. This presure exerts such an influence that our personalities change to be more conformist, but situations differ and so not all people become more complisant over time. And I know this, because I am such a person you're reffering to. Being contrary for the sake of being contrary is a matter of staying true to yourself, it's a moral dillema in which you treat remaining yourself- not being pressured into action by outside sources, as a moraly GOOD decision. It's a moral choice in the same way that refusing to participate in stoning a person is a moral choice, derived from personal belief in value of nonviolnce, or human life, or the golden rule. Except that in this case the moral quality that is being "held on the line" as it were, is the personal belief of the value of nonconformism.

so like.. If I was a serial killer and kill people, my friend asks me to kill her but I don't because the situation demands I do it?

Arrakiz666 yes, I agree. Everyone has different moral standards.

Pooja Sandhu No. More like you're ordered by your superior or pressured by your peers to do something, and you choose not to do so because either 1) You don't like being ordered/pressured, or 2) You don't like those giving the orders/ doing the pressuring The first example is a dispositional contrariness, the second is situational contrariness. In either case, the person doing "good" here doesn't necessarily ever even bother to consider the moral content of the action they are expected to perform. So if this person had been instead ordered/pressured NOT to do some "bad" thing, they would possibly go ahead and do it just out of spite.

feralshrew Ah i see. That doesn't entirely make sense because you might not want to do something cause you don't want to.

It is also my birthday, What a coincidence! Happy birthday :D

You're welcome ;)

thelonelydirector I keep forgetting that Crashcourse is not just Hank, it's plenty of other fantastic people who are dedicated to producing important content. Thank you muchly :)

Of course! Glad you enjoy them :)

Happy birthday, hope you have a dandy day sir.

but what if your beliefs aren't necessarily "good"? Then wouldn't you want too? For example, you grew up being told blacks are not human and you believe that. If there was a situation where a black person was being tortured and you felt bad, then you wouldn't want to change your beliefs?

That is one of the characteristics of an Idealist though. They always seek the "good". I change less important beliefs all the time, in order to be more flexible. But there are some beliefs I hold that I will never change, because I know they are tried and true "good" beliefs that, if compromised, would indicate a serious lack of moral fiber on my part. For example, if I had a choice between sacrificing my life to save someone else, or many people, or escaping and letting them die, well that's a hard choice to make. We praise and emulate this in movies, but in real life when it's you on the chopping block? The urge to live is very strong. The reason we idolize this behavior so much is partially because, in reality, it is very rare. For me, if I were to have to make that decision, the only way I would not choose to save their life, is if the whole situation happened so fast, I couldn't save them in time, say like jumping in front of a bullet. But if it was like, choose, should I shoot you? or this stranger? I would choose myself. I honestly can't imagine living after that, if I chose the stranger. You could say I'd do it for honor. My moral integrity to me is more valuable than my life.

RainAngel111 What if what's "good" to you isn't "good" to someone else? If someone tried to kill you, you wouldn't kill them because it's bad to kill?

RainAngel111 Good and bad can be subjective. There are many situations where there is no good. Would you save yourself and your lover and let someone die or save that 1 person and let you and your lover die? This is an extreme scenario but you get the idea.

Sage Moon "Good and bad is subjective" I can't edit aparentlly

"Yes, it means I'm freeee-" "No. It means you get your yellow ticket of leave. You are a thief-" "I stole a loaf of bread-" "You robbed a house-" "I broke a window pane."

"Look down! Look down!"

Ehehehehehe heh

severath19 I’m watching only because it’s interesting af

I'd love to see that, and right after he has talked about ASD, HFA and AS he makes a new video about their cousins: AD(H)D [Attention Deficit (Hyperactivity) Disorder]. Everyone of these belong in some kind of same spectrum, and is very common disorders and symptoms that needs to be better understood. Having ADD myself with influences of Asperger behaviour would love to see someone like Green to explain and teach more about them all.

Yes please! I need one about Aspergers.

Yeaaah sounds great

Joshua Rudman I have Autism Spectrum Disorder and social anxiety. I agree with your comment, I’d like to understand myself better.

Yes!!

lets goooooooo

You should be fine.

But does doing horrible things make you a horrible person?

Then how do you explain the Billions in Change foundation, charities and other positive things we do for each other? Do you mean that we have the potential to be an idiot and jerk but aren't initially? I'm confused.

+Manabender Take a look at the Thomas Hobbes point of view. He believed that people are naturally bad, and brings up good points. However, John Locke believed that humans are naturally good, and brings up good points as well. People have the ability to do both. Never, EVER underestimate the average person's ability to be an enormous help, friend, supporter, etc.

wat grandma died dec 17 2016.

Yes It's insanely easy People will tell you it's not but they're lying because they can't organize themselves Either that or I just got a really good teacher There's never any homework but to study and take notes on vocab

I'm currently taking it and not only is it easy. Its super interesting

Grace Laurent Go for it. Coming from a junior who only recently started enrolling in AP, I'd firmly say AP Psychology has been one of the most enriching courses I've ever taken, no contest. Make sure you're organized and willing to put in the effort though!

yup, super easy, got a 5 and got o skip it as one of my pre reqs in college. money saved. It's pretty much vocab and people

G L Absolutely! AP Psychology is one of the most easiest AP courses ever!

I think he's mentioning the Zimbardo experiment because it has become "a classic": a thing that everyone is expected to have heard of. Freud is pretty widely discredited, but an intro to psych class has to mention him in passing because he was influential for so long. Hopefully in 20 years, the same will be true of Zimbardo and we'll talk about the work of Walter Mischel (AKA, the Marshmallow test guy) on the influence of situation on personality traits.

I heard the experiment wasn't exactly to the standards of the scientific method. the guards were (to my understanding) asked to be aggressive, and heavy reports of police brutality influenced behavior. TD;LR no control group

wanderingdude777 So what your saying is..It wasn't done according to the scientific method because the guards were told to be brutal and there were other pollice being brutal? but, isn't that kind of related? Like, how people are influenced based on what authority tells you to do, and what other people are doing around you? Which is basically the situation? Which John Green was talking about influences how people act?

Pooja Sandhu It wasn't performed to the scientific method for a number of reasons. It was terrible science at the time and only became famous because it was shocking. It's basically the 70s equivalent of that one study that showed a link between autism and vaccines (even though the study was awful and has been heavily discredited).

Hint Search: Abu Ghraib and Zimbardo experiment

+FirstRisingSouI - I get what your saying. I wasn't conflicted, however everyone in our 'church' the adults especially were displaying strange behaviour. I was raised in religion, left at age 13. Its like a bunch of zombies, torn with guilt, shame, and generally defensive.

+E.T. it's a defensive technique man.. we all do that on the individual level every fucking day of our lives. it's just the whole fuckin god thing that ruins it

Mario Lolrapeface We all do what? guilt and shame ourselves?

E.T. yes. in some way at some time. It's a rather human thing to do :p

Mario Lolrapeface I have even done the same. The thing is, too many people brush these feelings of theirs under a rug and it festers. My experience in religion was a breeding ground for emotional tormented minds.
