** There are 3 parts to this assignment, please do all **

Part 3 :
1. 1). Watch the following: YouTube: Brain Games and Social Conformity (5:34 min)
and YouTube: The Stanford Prison Experiment (By: Answerto1984is (29:01 min)
2) Summarize each clip and describe how they demonstrate social control over interactions (total one paragraph for both clips).
3). Utilizing a macrosociological perspective, explain how social structure is coercive of group behavior. In other words, how does social structure control us to such a degree that we do not even think about our actions? We merely act robotically, mindlessly, or habitually. Give two examples in one paragraph. Helpful hint: A macrosociological example would most likely discuss how social institutions (i.e. social institution of education, economy, religion, etc.) control the masses without us even realizing we are being controlled. Please do not use the examples provided already (media and criminal justice system)
