In psychological experiments on human subjects‚ ethics are dictated by a series of guidelines that researchers must abide by‚ designed to minimize or eliminate any unnecessary discomfort. There are five major ethical principles detailed by the American Psychological Association: • Subjects must give informed consent (i.e they must voluntarily agree to and be aware of the contents of the experiment they are to participate in). • Subjects must be given

found in the original experiment (1962) included participants (teacher) giving other participants (learner) dangerous electrical shocks at a very high voltage increasing all the way up to 450 volts. The experimenter (authority) informed both the teacher and the learner participants that although the volts may be painful‚ they are not dangerous. Even though the “teacher” could hear the “learner” yell and scream as they got shocked each time‚ the “teacher” continued with the experiment because the experimenter

why 65% did not obey. In other words‚ it does not explain individual differences as the volunteers in Milgrams experiment seemed to resist the pressure and Milgram does not explain that. To continue‚ the experiment lacked validity. It did not reflect a real life situation as it is quite unusual to be administering shocks to others if they answered a question incorrectly. The experiment therefore lacked ecological validity which may have lead to demand characteristics. Orne and Holland support this

replication of the Hofling Experiment (1966) in 1977‚ nurses who were allowed to consult to whether give an overdose of an unknown drug to a patient to other nurses‚ showed much lower levels of obedience than those nurses who were not allowed to consultation in the Hofling Experiment (Class Hand-out: Hofling Experiment (1966)‚ p. 3).

A safety audit for the gas-solid fluidization experiment was conducted. The following safety concerns were found when performing the audit: operating beyond the operating limits‚ spillage of the beads‚ risk of head injury from bending over to change the beads in the apparatus or from the low bar‚ and congestion of the workspace. One of the biggest safety concerns with this lab involved the small glass beads that acted as the solid in the experiment. If the gas flow rate goes below 50 standard cubic

After reading “The Perils of Obedience”‚ The Kitty Genovese Case”‚ and Darley and Latane’s experiments‚ I realized that humans acts based upon the situation and people around them in a case of emergency. Humans sometimes get confused on whether they should care about the crises or others will take care of it. “The Perils of Obedience” was an experiment done by Stanley Milgram concentrating on the conflict between obedience to the authority and individual’s self.
