| 11. | Reicher criticized deindividuation theory for several reasons.
|
| 12. | Zimbardo's famous Stanford Prison Experiment is a strong argument for the power of deindividuation.
|
| 13. | Zimbardo designed the experiment in order to induce disorientation, depersonalization, and deindividuation in the participants.
|
| 14. | Deindividuation, where self-awareness is blocked by environmental conditions, can occur and be problematic.
|
| 15. | Early versions of deindividuation theory saw this as a consequence of reduced self-awareness and accountability.
|
| 16. | The SIDE model is in contrast to other deindividuation explanations which involve the reduced impact of the self.
|
| 17. | There are many instances in which the effects of deindividuation can be seen in real-world instances.
|
| 18. | Diener and others later focused more exclusively on loss of self as the core psychological process underlying deindividuation.
|
| 19. | This may appear to be similar to the effects that anonymity has for accountability in classic deindividuation theory.
|
| 20. | Therefore, deindividuation is the increased salience of a group identity that can result from the manipulation of such factors.
