Identify and describe a historical event in which the deindividuation phenomenon occurred.
Explain the process of deindividuation (e.g., how it works, what changes happen within the individual to allow for unusual behavior).
Discuss how deindividuation might also occur outside the presence of a crowd, such as in other settings in which a person feels anonymous.

Include at least 3 sources in your paper. Use in-text citations and a reference list according to APA-style guidelines.
