Obedience- Going along with an order, request or law. This is normally submission by an authority. This is where someone is instructed to do something. This may be instructed by a parent/guardian or a higher work colleague or a sergeant in the army. You may do this because of fear, love or loyalty to the person that is instructing you. Obedience is an essential part of employment in the public services, as this shows employees are well disciplined, and the more disciplined employees are the more efficient the public services will be Respect and trust is also developed due to obedience and is an important role in the public service sector. Employees in the public services depend on each other when completing tasks and must…
Obedience is a direct social influence where a person complies with orders without questioning a person with perceived authority and does a task voluntarily. In the presence of a person of authority, the said person has an option of either complying with orders they are given or to disobey, and as consequences may be unknown if they do not follow what they are asked to do, fear of punishment may influence the person to then respond by submitting to what they have been told to do.…

Conformity is the convergence of individuals’ thoughts, feelings, or behavior toward social norms. One of the most influential conformity researchers in psychological history is Muzafer Sherif, who researched the reason why people conform. Conformity can occur for two different reasons, such as, informational influence and normative influence. Normative influence is when people want to be liked and so by being in a group they gain social approval that leads to compliance. On the other hand, informational influence is when people want to be right, so they join a group that they perceive to be correct, which leads to acceptance.…
A norm is a set of rules based on socially or culturally shared beliefs of how an individual is “supposed to” behave. They regulate behaviour within a group. Conforming to group norms results in a positive and valued social identity and we receive the desired respect from others. Conformity is an indirect form of social influence that involves a change in behaviour in order to fit in with a group. The need to belong plays a strong role in the desire to conform to group norms.…
Everyone conforms in society at some point. John F. Kennedy claimed, “Conformity is the jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth.” When it comes to the topic of conformity, most of us will readily agree that individuality changes the world. Where this agreement usually ends, however, is on the question of is conformity that bad? While some are convinced that conformity is great for the world, others believe that conformity is the death of us. I tend to fall on the side where conformity is the death of us, because without individuality we would not have a great deal of the advances in technology.…
Philip Zimbardo and Stanley Milgram conducted controversial experiments that had to deal with obedience. Zimbardo conducted an experiment in a mock prison that showed the roles of the guards and prisoners. Milgram conducted an experiment that tested how much pain a teacher would inflict on someone else at the command of an experimenter. The experiments that they conducted have been called wrong and unethical. Although the experiments vary from each other, they both changed the way the world looks at obedience and Authority.…

In Fromm essay” Disobedience as a psychological and moral problem”, he discusses and compares the different kinds of obedience and disobedience, and how they can have a positive or negative impact on the human society. There are many physiological comforts to obedience. For example, when a person obeys the law, or is obedient to their superior it leaves them with a feeling of accomplishment. They feel as though they have succeeded in their said job, therefore they are accepted within society. Some people assume, to obey is to be accepted and to disobey is to be withdrawn from society. Another benefit of obedience is reassurance. I believe that Authorities would rather have people obey out of love, over fear because then it is a true thing.…
1) Do you think conformity with norms in general is a good or bad thing? Why? Conformity can come in useful when we are in unfamiliar surroundings or activities. Everyone has done it in some way or another throughout their life and it really can come in handy with unknown situations. I would say it can be good and bad, if there is a social norm that is meant to keep order and peace, then conforming to this standard can be considered good.…
Conformity is a form of social influence that involves you to change your beliefs to fit in with a group. This change is due to the physical presence of the group members, or imagined group pressure that involves the pressures of social norms. In the public services compliance with common practices is following a particular course of action which is the social norm. It can be seen when the police are dealing with suspects as the suspect is innocent until proven guilty and the law should not be taken upon in one person’s hands. Social Norms can be as common as being polite by saying sorry in certain situations.…
