Well, there's this famous experience from the 70s done at Stanford where people were supposed to be either guards or prisoners and it got way out of control and ended up really messing with the people in the study. It's one of the big reasons why if you do a study for someone you have to fill out a form that says you understand what is going on and can stop participating at any point.
