Document Summary

1/14 psych 11 movies for essay assignment. Experimenter responds releases shock but not dangerous: all subjects given identical instruction, subjects given sample shock and asked to estimate the number of volts they think it was. Guess was 75 but shock was 45: before shocks, tell him the number of volts giving him. Subject had to touch/force learner to touch shockplate. Instructor left lab and made a phone call. 3x as great when gave instructions in telepjone relationship/closeness of subject to learner effects level of obedience. 3/40 broke out when subject had to touch where is the victim: High obedience when in a different room less obedience. Less contact with experiment (phone, tape recorder) obedience drops a lot. Move to bridgeport to challenge criticism that yale is prestigious so that is why people continued. Criticism: harms subject mentally, someone had a seizure when they had to deliver shocks (due to stress?)
