Outline and critically assess psychological research into obedience Psychological research into obedience over the years has enabled us to understand more about the human mind than ever before. When experiments are conducted‚ the aim is to demonstrate cause and effect relationships between the independent and dependant variables‚ usually in order to make generalising statements about people. A well known study into obedience is the Milgram experiment‚ Milgram had a found interest

shock that a person would be willing to administer to another person based on the directions that were given by an authority figure (Milgram‚ 1965). The researchers who were apart of this study expected anyone who participated would go beyond 150 volts shock point. The “victim” stated they no longer wanted to participate in the experiment. In 1965‚ Milgram reported that this study had a high level of obedience. Milgram (1965)‚ stated that regardless of the participant’s protests‚ majority of the

THE WAR OF CURRENTS Tesla vs Edison: THE WAR OF CURRENTS In the "War of Currents" era (sometimes "War of the Currents" or "Battle of Currents") in the late 1880s‚ George Westinghouse and Thomas Edison became adversaries due to Edison’s promotion of direct current (DC) for electric power distribution over alternating current (AC) advocated by Westinghouse and Nikola Tesla. Thomas Edison American inventor andbusinessman was known as "The Wizard of Menlo Park" and pushed

a learner who were completely strangers to each other. As per the instructions‚ the subject was asked to teach the learner few pair of words. On making a mistake the subject has to punish the learner with an electric shock and for each mistake 15 volts higher than the last shock to be given. But in this experiment the learner actually didn’t receive any shock but it was pre-tapped audio which was played every time when the shock button was pressed. And the same tape said ‘continue’‚ ‘go on’ then

line and how is this simulation related to work and energy? 1) Turn on “Show Numbers” 2) Place a positive 1 nano-coulomb charge near the center of the screen. 3) In the lower left of the screen is a meter for indicating electric potential‚ in volts‚ created by the charge that you introduced. Record the voltage and turn on “Plot”. 4) This line is much like a line on a geologic topo map. Explain the similarity. In a topo map it shows all the elevation points as a higher or lower surface focusing

When given the task to dismiss a four hundred fifty volt to another human being you don’t know‚ what would you do in that instant if it’d be for the greater cause of science and knowledge? In discussion of psychologist Stanley Milgram‚ a controversial issue has been whether or not Milgram’s experiment was based on the ethical conflict between obedience to authority versus personal conscience. On the one hand‚ some argue that it was ethical because it would explain Nazi behavior. From this perspective

In 1963‚ Stanley Milgram from Yale University conducted an experiment focusing about obedience to authority figure verse personal conscience. However‚ in this research the volunteering subjects thinks it is based on the study of learning and memory. This experiment involves three people‚ the experimenter‚ naïve subject‚ and the victim; the ending result was unpredictable. The experiment had total of forty participant who are men between age twenty to fifty with different backgrounds and occupations
