Factors that would lead prisoners to attribute guard
brutality to the guard’s disposition or character rather than the situation are
the following;
·
Cruelty shown by the guard – this allows the
prisoners to engage violently towards them and lead them to act more brutally
towards them
·
Demanded characteristic that the guard should or
the role of their job – if the guards are not doing their job, the prisoners
are likely to look lowly at them and does not provide any respect to the guards
that could engage to brutality
