The aim of Milgram's study... | ...was to test the 'Germans are different' hypothesis by measuring levels of obedience in America and comparing the levels in Germany. |
The volunteers were selected by.. | .. placing and ad. in newspaper. They were paid $4.50 - for just coming to Yale University. Participants had range of jobs and backgrounds. |
Participants were told.... | ....that they were taking part in a study of the effect of punishment on learning. |
40 male participants (aged 20-50) were asked to administer electric shocks to a male 'learner' - 15V intervals up to 450V for incorrect responses. describe shock generator... | The shock generator described the shocks from being 'mild' to 'severe' 'XXX'. |
the 'learner' was a confederate (pretending to be a participant), so... | No shocks were delivered accept the teacher who got a 'sample 'shock' to convince him that they were real. The 'learner' had been pre-recorded giving mostly the wrong answers. |
The 'observer' wore a... and said... | wore a lab coat to show authority.... and said standard prompts if the teacher hesitated. |
the prompts were... | 'please continue' 'the experiment requires you to continue' ''it is absolutely essential that you continue' 'you have no choice but to continue' |
Their 'teacher', 'learner' roles were drawn, however.. | .. they both said teacher.. so the confederate would say that they were the learner. |
Once the research was complete the naive participants were.. | .. debriefed- told the true intentions of the study and questioned about there actions. |
Results.. | .. at 300V five (12.5%) refused to continue. All participants had continued to this point. 26 (65%) administered the full 450V. The remainder (9) refused to continue between 300 and 450 volts. |
the behaviour of the participants... | -nervous laughter and smiling - extreme tension.. such as.. sweating, trembling, stuttering, biting lips, even digging finger nails into their flesh. |
Milgram concluded.. | that 'the phenomenon of obedience must rest on the analysis of the particular conditions in which it occurs'. The participants were put in a situation/circumstance that made it difficult to disobey. |
