Milgram Study
When viewing the Milgram video I noticed how the tester's (person pushing the button) were a bit apprehensive when he heard the test takers response of...OUCH! I also noticed how the tester's facial expression changed when he heard the sound from the test taker...almost as if a smirk was present. Emotionally, we will respond to movies, games and other activities that we may or may not enjoy but still continue to attend/watch these out of interest. Dr. Burger point of females have a tendency to be more empathic which implies to me that males are more dominant and the testing process may not affect them as much as it does women because in the video they looked back more often at the experimenter then the male tester did. Today, there are various techniques that are used to discover learned our obedient behavior however, conflict arises as to how far one should go to get results. The experiments then allowed more leniency for breaking ethical standards because the voltage was changed today.
