A psychology researcher’s shocking findings about obedience!!!
The results of a psychology experiment show that most people will obey someone
who gives them orders – even if that means giving someone else a life-threatening
electric shock!!! The shocks were actually fake – but the participants didn’t know
that.
The researcher carried out different versions of the experiment. He changed the
method to test the effect on obedience levels. In every version, participants were
ordered by the researcher to give shocks of increasing voltage. The highest
possible voltage was 450.
In the original experiment, 65% of the participants were willing to give the highest
shock. The participants could not see the person being ‘shocked’ but they could
hear fake screams.
Obedience levels fell when the researcher wore everyday clothes instead of a lab
coat.
Obedience levels were also lower when the experiment was carried out in an office
instead of a scientific lab.
Only 19% of the participants were willing to give the highest shock when the orders
were given by telephone rather than in person.
0 3 . 1 Use the article to identify two examples where the social factor of authority affected
obedience levels and two examples where the social factor of proximity affected
obedience levels.
Write your answers in the correct boxes.
