IV. Report on Findings One thing I learned about myself that I am likeable by the students. In my real life, people find me annoying sometimes and no tends to find me entertaining except for some of my family members and friends. After the experiment, I feel quite changed that the students accept me for who I am and I am amazed I thought that raising my voice sometimes will make them hate me, however, I was wrong. My life I feel more thankful and positive, however, in some cases I don't trust people on the street begging for money since I don't pay attention to them. In the morning, whenever I recognize the person I will say good morning or thank you whenever I feel like it. The idea love is meaning to be appraised and not being mistreated. …show more content…

In my experiment, I tend to control my anger by listening to music, walking away, and playing with my pen. All of these things made me shape myself into a better person who can control your own anger. I am proud that doing this experiment made me feel more reasonable since I tend not make negotiation with the students in any way. If I do that it will create favouritism I do not want to create favouritism it will lead to other students wanting to make deals with …show more content…

This was my job before the experiment and during the experiment. The experiment I learned that need to be more leant since before the experiment I would constantly say no and just tell the students to sit down. Instead of love conquer fear it is the opposite. If I express more love in my experiment the students will take advantage of me or the students will have affection towards me. I don't want either one of the outcomes in any way since it is inappropriate. The experiment shape me up in a way I learn that in some cases I need to be leant towards young students since they are learning; however that they will eventually transition into a higher grade from there they are supposed to

    The teachers would initiate a “shock” to the student every time they got an answer wrong, but the teachers were unaware that the shock was fake. As the experiment continued, the shocks became more severe, and the students would plead for the teacher to stop since they were in pain. Despite the fact, that the participants continuously asked the authoritative experimenter if they could stop, “...relatively few people [had] the resources needed to resist authority” (Cherry 5). The participants feared questioning the effectiveness of the experiment, or restraining from continuing in fear of losing their job, going to jail, or getting reprimanded by Yale. A majority of the participants were intimidated by the experimenter, hence why they continued to shock the students, even though they knew morally, it was incorrect what they were doing. This experiment concluded, “...situational variables have a stronger sway than personality factors in determining obedience...” (5). One's decisions are based on the situation they are facing. If someone is under pressure, they will resort to illogical decision making. There thoughts could potentially be altered due to fear, or hostility. In conclusion, the rash, incohesive state of mind, provoked by fear will eventually lead to the rise of

  • An Experiment on Obedience in The Pearl´s of Obedience by Stanley Milgram

    This gives proof to the belief that many people obey authority to show they are doing a good job, and perceived as loyal by the experimenter or society, which ever the case may be. One theory used to explain this experiment, is one of hidden aggression. According to this concept, people suppress aggressive behavior, and the experiment allows them to express this anger. Therefore when an individual is placed in a situation where he has control over another individual, whom he is able to punish repeatedly, all demented and hidden anger will be revealed.

  • Comparing Views on Stanley Milgram's Experiment on Obedience

    “Review of Stanley Milgram’s Experiments of Obedience” was written by Diane Baumrind. Baumrind is a psychologist at the Institute of Human Development at the University of California, Berkley. Throughout her article, Baumrind attacks multiple aspects of Milgram’s experiment. She immediately states that the location of the experiment played a factor in the produced results (Baumrind 225). She continues in saying the lack of emotion and concern from the teacher caused heavy stress on the subjects. Baumrind also calls into question the supposed attempts of Milgram to allow the subjects to leave in a clear, whole state of mind (Baumrind 227). The affects the experiment would have on the subjects afterwards is also a point of concern for Baumrind. Lastly, Baumrind pleads for the subjects to be fully informed of the experiment they would be partaking in (Baumrind 229). However, Baumrind is not the only author who reviews the experiment. Ian Parker, “Obedience”, writes about the consequences Milgram himself experienced after the results of hi...

    The “Doing Nothing” experiment exposed me to a new way of seeing things and also a new level of awkwardness. Standing still in a public place for ten minutes, with people walking past you and starring you down like you are some crazy person is quite the experience. You begin to understand that people take great notice of anything that seems out of the ordinary to them. This is because our society has developed and enacted so many societal norms in today’s day and age.

    Afterward, thank you for your participation. Explain to them that your study is looking at how people estimate how often others do various tasks and whether these estimates are influenced by how often they do these same tasks. To demonstrate the effect statistically, compute the UB mean for each question using the students' personal data. Unless you do this with a lot of people, your data may not accurately represent UB undergrads. The easiest way to get around this is to pool your data with those collected by others in the class.

  • Analysis Of The Perils Of Obedience Stanley Milgram

    1107 Words  | 3 Pages

    In 1961, Stanley Milgram, a Yale University Psychologist conducted a variety of social psychology experiments on obedience to authority figures. His experiments involved three individuals, one of them was a volunteer who played the role of the teacher, one was an actor who played the role of the student, and one was the experimenter who played the role of the authority. The teacher was instructed by the authority to administrate shocks to the student (who claimed to have a heart condition) whenever they answered a question incorrectly. The voltage of the shock would go up after every wrong answer. The experimenter would then instruct the teacher to administrate higher voltages even though pain was being imposed. The teacher would then have to make a choice between his morals and values or the choice of the authority figure. The point of the experiment was to try to comprehend just how far an individual would continue when being ordered by an individual in a trench coat to electrically shock another human being for getting questions incorrect. The experiment consisted of administrating pain to different people and proved that ordinary people will obey people with authority. Some of the various reasons are that the experimenter was wearing a trench coat, fear of the consequences for not cooperating, the experiments were conducted in Yale University a place of prestige, and the authority f...

  • Mermillod Milgram Experiment

    For instance, we can extend the study to obedience processes of different aged students. Does age difference between experimenter and participant change the coercive process? In M. Mermillod, participants and experimenters were in the same age decade, meaning that the only imbalance is in the fact that the experimenter has an official scientific/businesslike status. In the classroom where there is an adult teacher and young students, there is a much larger power imbalance wherein the teacher is considered to be very experienced. In this experiment we would construct two different classrooms with the same teacher. One would have teens in sophomore year of high school and the second classroom would have children in 3rd grade. A hypothesis is that 3rd graders and teenagers will act vastly different because of their view of the teacher’s

    I have learned several valuable things from this project experience. First, it’s okay to not know how to do something right away. Ask, observe and experiment. Doing so will greatly enhance my ability to do it correctly and continue to learn. Second, I learned that this can be an experience in frustration if I always try to not make waves. Sometimes waves need to be made to better the project. And third, watch for similar frustrations with my students and intervene before it gets too serious.

The people who participated in the experiment thought they were participating in a study on creativity. The college students had to write a creative story on each picture that they were shown. The graduate student, who was the experimenter, always had a negative reaction to their stories but was either considerate about letting them know or was really harsh and rude about informing the students about their not creative stories. Then the experimenter would put his foot on the on the vent in the room and that would signal the supervisor to come interrupt the session to let the experimenter know if they had done a good job or bad job on the research that he had been conducting.
