Yamamoto

The findings may be generalizable to children in terms of development and education about helping others. If children and chimpanzees take the same development path we could educated children about how we can ask other people whether they want help even if they have not directly asked us to help them.

Canli

Since emotionally intense information is more likely to be recalled at a later time, advertising agencies could use intense imagery in their advertisements.

Baron-Cohen

Students and educators could use the findings of this study to help AS/HFA students. These students could have extra support in helping them to understand emotions and how to read them in faces. This could help them cope with everyday situations that involve emotions.

Piliavin

The findings of this study can be used to educate people about bystanders' intervention. To try to break stereotypes, children could be educated about helping others no matter who those in need are.

Laney

The findings of this study could be applied to children labelled "fussy eaters". For example, if children do not like fruit and/or vegetables then parents or doctors could use the same procedures as the researchers to make those children believe that they do like those types of food. This may encourage "fussy eaters" to change their habits and eat more healthy.

Bandura, Ross and Ross

The findings of this study could be used by television networks to ensure that programs are appropriate for children, which could include ensuring that aggressive acts are limited or, alternatively, encouraging prosocial behavior. The findings could also help parents pick and choose which programs their children should watch if they know their children may imitate what they see.

Saavedra and Silverman

The findings showed that intervention therapy was a success, meaning it could be implemented with other phobic children or even adults. Using exposure-based therapy can help decrease phobias in people.

Andrade

The results of the study may be useful for students when they are revising for examinations. If students have a podcast to listen to or are reading notes, it could be useful for them to doodle at the same time.

Dement and Kleitman

The study helps identify when participants are entering REM or nREM sleep, meaning scientists could use EEGs to identify if a person has a disorder based around REM sleep. A person complaining of poor sleep could voluntary go to a laboratory, be wired up to an EEG, and have their brain-wave patterns monitored to see if they are typical or atypical.

Pepperberg

The study may be useful for people who wish to or need to train animals to perform certain tasks. For example, if they use the ideas of observation and imitation, zookeepers may be able to introduce new animals to groups more easily by encouraging role models to show the new group member what behaviors are acceptable.

Schachter and Singer

The study's findings could be useful to hospitals, when patients (especially children) are given drugs that might have some side effects that are not desirable. If engaged in behaviors that might generate euphoria or happiness, this may help them get through any short-term negative side effects.

Milgram

The study's findings have been used extensively to explain why humans engage in destructive obedience. For example, ordinary people who became part of the Nazi movement in the 1930s followed out destructive orders in the Second World War from higher authority figures. Genocides in Rwanda and Yugoslavia can also be explained by the findings of this study; people will follow the orders of authority figures when placed in certain morally straining situations.
