About the Stanford Prison Experiment?
What implications did anonymity have for the 'prisoners'? When they were given id numbers and identical, degrading uniforms, what aspect does this play in the findings of the experiment? Can we relate it to Goffman's book ''Asylums''?

It probably made them feel less significant, and perhaps it was easier for the guards to mistreat them seeing them as numbers rather than human beings. I haven't read the book.
