The Learned Helplessness Experiment was part of some High Schools in the 1980s but it is no longer taught on any scale.
In humans, learned helplessness is related to the concept of self-efficacy; the individual's belief in their innate ability to achieve goals.
Learned helplessness theory is the view that clinical depression and related mental illnesses may result from a real or perceived absence of control over the outcome of a situation.
