Group Size: 1 Confederate Lower (3%)Group Size: 2 Confederates Lower (12.8%)Group Size: 3 Confederates Remained the same (32%)Group Size: 15 Confederates Lower (29%)
Historical Context/Expertise: Perrin & Spencer (1981) 0.25%
Culture: Meta-analysis by Smith & Bond - Fiji 58%Culture: Meta-analysis by Smith & Bond - Belgium 15%
Unanimity – Where one of the confederates gave thecorrect answer throughout. 5%
Unanimity – Where one of the confederates gave adifferent incorrect answer to the majority. 9%

Question: What do you think the point of that task was?

Lesson Objectives: To outline the aim, method, results and conclusion of Milgram’s (1963)
research into obedience.
To evaluate Milgram’s (1963) research with reference to ethicalguidelines.

Milgram (1963)
Task: You will each be given a card which details part of Milgram’s(1963) research (the aim, method, results, conclusion and evaluation).Your task is to arrange yourself into the correct order, to outlineMilgram’s study. You only have 5 minutes…
If you don’t have a card, your role is to organise the group.
5 MinutesSAMPLE

Give Me 100…
Task: Summarise the aim, method, results and conclusion of Milgram’sstudy in EXACTLY 100 words. No more, no less. EXACTLY 100 words. Usethe follow key words to help you…
Obey (obedience) 300 volts Confederates 450 volts Electric shock

Here’s One I Made Earlier…
Aim: Milgram aimed to investigate whether ordinary Americans wouldobey unjust orders and inflict pain on another person.
Method: 40 male volunteers took part in an experiment on ‘learningand punishment’. The real participants were paired with a confederateand told to teach the learner (confederate) word pairs. Each time thelearner got an answer wrong, they had to administer an electric shockof increasing voltage. If the real participant tried to stop, theexperimenter provided a verbal ‘prod’ to continue.
Results & Conclusion: Everyone administered 300 volts and 65%administered the full 450 volts, showing that nearly all people will obeyan unjust order.SAMPLE

Evaluating Milgram (1963)
Task: Use the mind map on your handout to detail differentevaluation points (strengths / weaknesses) for the Milgramexperiment.

n THE BOTTOM BUN: This matters because…
THE TOP BUN: One strength of Milgram’s study is that it has high internal validity.
THE MEAT: Milgram deceived his participants to see if they would obey anauthority figure and his results showed that 100% reached 300 volts out of 450.ORMilgram’s procedure used a covert observation to see…

Feedback
Task: Be ready to read out your evaluation paragraphs. As you listento one another, think about what was effective and what could havebeen improved…
SAMPLE

Consider the following…
Question: Imagine you are working at John Lewis or Waitrose and you receive acall from the police. The policeman asks you to detain (hold onto) a customerwho is suspected of shop lifting.
Would you following his instructions? If yes, why? If not, why would youdisobey an order from a policeman?
Now imagine, the policeman asksyou to strip search thecustomer…would you?
Are you sure you would respond inthis way… SAMPLE

SAMPLE
To find out whether ordinary Americans would obey unjust orders from a person in authority, to inflict pain on another person. SAMPLE
Milgram adver sed for male volunteers by placing an advert in a local newspaper which offered $4.50 for taking part in a study of ‘punishment and learning’. SAMPLE
40 volunteers, from a range of occupa ons and backgrounds, were selected to a end the laboratory at Yale University. SAMPLE
When they arrived they were greeted by the ‘experimenter’ and introduced to a middle‐aged man whom they believed to be another par cipant, Mr Wallace, who was a confederate (actor). SAMPLE
The experimenter explained that one par cipant was to be the teacher and the other the learner. The real par cipant was always assigned the role of teacher. SAMPLE
The role of the teacher (the real par cipant) was to teach the ‘learner’ a series of word pairs and then test their recall. SAMPLE
The teacher’s role was to administer an electric shock every me the learner made a mistake and increase the voltage with each mistake. SAMPLE
Both the teacher and learner were shown an electric chair. The teacher was given a sample shock to convince them that the procedure was real, then the learner was strapped into the chair. SAMPLE
The learner gave predetermined responses to the test. As the shocks became higher, the learner’s screams (which were pre‐recorded) became more drama c. At 180 volts he complained of a weak heart and at 300 volts he banged on the wall and demanded to leave. At 315 volts he refused to answer and became silent. SAMPLE
The experiment con nued un l the teacher refused to con nue or un l 450 volts was reached. SAMPLE
When/If the teacher objected the experimenter would respond with a series of ‘prods’ which were standardised, including: ‘Please con nue’, ‘Please go on’, ‘The Experiment requires that you con nue’, etc. SAMPLE
Following the experiment the par cipants were debriefed. SAMPLE
ALL (100%) of the real par cipants went to at least 300 volts. SAMPLE
65% of the par cipants went to the full 450 volts. SAMPLE
Under certain circumstances, most people will obey orders, even if those orders involve inflic ng pain on another human being. SAMPLE
Milgram’s study has been cri cised for breaking the code of ethics. SAMPLE
He did not gain the par cipants informed consent. SAMPLE
SAMPLE
He made it difficult for his par cipants to withdraw (right to withdraw). SAMPLE
Many (if not all) of his par cipants experienced considerable stress and poten al psychological harm. SAMPLE
