The conditions of the experiment caused people's aggressive tendencies, which are normally suppressed, to rise to the surface. b. Volunteers came into the experiment as products of a social world that trains people to obey legitimate authorities and to play by the rules. c. The experimenter acted in a self-assured manner and indicated that he was responsible if anything went wrong. d.

In Milgram's controversial study on obedience, nearly __________ of the participants were willing to administer what appeared to be lethal electrical shocks to another person because they were told to do so by an authority figure.Question 2Select one:a.1/3b.2/3c.3/4d.4/5

What were the basic results of psychologist Stanley Milgram's original obedience study?Group of answer choicesOnly about one-third of the subjects continued to obey the experimenter and administer shocks beyond the 350-volt level.All of theseThe majority of the subjects refused to continue the experiment when the learner first protested that the shocks were painful at the 90-volt level.Despite hearing protests from the “learner” in another room, two-thirds of the subjects continued to administer shocks all the way to the full 450-volt level.

Which of the following is FALSE about the findings from Milgram shock experiment?*2 pointsSubjects obeyed the experimenter less as physical, visual, and auditory contact with the victim increasedSubjects obeyed the experimenter less as physical, visual, and auditory distance with the experimenter increasedSubjects exhibited anxiety and distressSubjects remained calm and followed orders without complaint
