[A dictator would normally never listen to others] A dictator would normally never listen to others VIVAnews - World many times witnessed the power of the dictatorship which ended in humiliation and insults his own people. There's even among those whose lives were ended due to his own cruelty for the lead, as happened in the former Romanian president Nicolae Ceausescu. But, what really makes someone could be cruel and become a dictator? It turned out that the tendency of a person becomes a dictator is not formed in a single night. A study conducted by Stanford University in 1971 had conducted experiments to test the human tendency toward power. In the study, a random group of students act as prisoners, while another group of students acting as guards prisoners. In its development, the students who become guardians prisoner then turned into a cruel and oppressive. On the other hand, students who served as prisoners, it started to become a passive people. Finally, although not until a week, the research then hastily terminated. A study conducted in 2010 and published in a psychology journal, found that people who feel themselves to be and well off, turned out to be worse in reading the emotions of others, rather than the people who feel poor. According Dacher Keltner, one of the researchers from the University of California-Berkeley, that might be caused by people who do not have the power used to build alliances with others. Meanwhile, people who have power, Keltner said, usually can do the things he wanted. "When you get power, you will cease to be active from your social environment," said Keltner told LiveScience. So then, this person can not read the emotions of others well. "You will not have the understanding of important social conditions, such as poverty," Keltner said. Not surprisingly, then power to make someone become impulsive, selfish and can not be in proportion. Even this will make people become isolated. An another study published in Psychological Science, 2009, said that people who have been 'trained' to think that he is in power, usually strongly believe that they can control the situation, even on a random conditions, such as when he got to 'gamble' with the dice. Therefore, a tyrant like Hosni Mubarak, usually a combination of: crazy power, stop listening to people, even believing that he still has control over random events. "The illusion of control may be one way in which power would lead to his own death.
