  • Are ordinary people able to do terrible things? And if so, how many would give high electric shocks to an innocent student, just because they are following an order? To find out, Stanley Milgram, a young psychologist at Yale University, conducted a clever, but controversial, experiment that changed our understanding of human behavior forever.

      That doesn't actually work though, repeats of the experiment with subjects that know about the experiment still had similar results. The relevant variable is not awareness of the experiment, it is the environment (that includes an authority figure). Awareness doesn't matter, only the inherently human response to authority does. It takes serious anti-authoritarian conditioning to even have a chance of refusing to follow the orders of the authority.

    It takes a kind of interior stubborn-ness in order to stand up for what you believe in. You have to be the kind of person that values what they think about themselves more than what others think of them because the social pressure to go with the crowd can be very hard to ignore unless you are prepared to be disliked and to actively rock the boat and be a vocal minority when you see people doing something you consider wrong. That's step 1. Step 2 is you have to ignore the temptation to abuse power. That is a little easier if your have a strong moral code, however your mind can trick you into thinking you're doing something for moral reasons, when the reality is you're doing them for selfish ones. So you have to constantly second guess your motivations, look for your own bias, and where possible, defer some of your authority to others or at least allow them to critique your use of power so you can avoid falling into the trap of "I'm doing this for the greater good, not because I enjoy it (wrings hands together and starts drooling)"

    You skipped parts of the experiment. The subjects were diff ages (starting young, 18 yrs to older 35 yrs old). The older ones were prone to refuse to go all the way of the experiment and even quit (something around 30-40%, if not more) but the younger ones "blame" that the "authority" made them do it and they had no choice. This is why the Army is always looking to very young adults to have them join in, because they follow orders and think of consequences less. The Israelis army is a bit different, they give room to decision on the squad -- so it's a different psychological framework.

      I’m guessing the difference between the age groups was largely due to a sort of inherent authority that comes with greater age/seniority.
      For example, a 20 year old subject would likely see the person conducting the experiment as a stronger source of authority than a 40 year old subject.

      Good point. You are right that seeing the misery inflicted might have reduced the acceptance of authority. But think of it this way: the regular people in society rarely actually witness the evil they ask their governments to do in their names. We merely vote, but the atrocities are committed out of our ear and eyeshot.

      I still can be broken, especially when you add peer pressure and the consequence of loosing something. Remember the Nazis and any other system like this like in many prisons or concentration camps around the world or just any corrupt totalian systems or mafia structures. Once people are in the fear of loosing something like family, position, wealth is so painful, they prefer inflicting this pain to others to stay safe? I assume the eye barrier is just like a 5th question in this case but you can easily overcome it with peer pressure. Allow eye contact and add a actor "audience / judges" who put pressure on the person. Most people are just weak to stand up, even if there are no consequences for themselves.

      You're right. The data shows that increasing the perceived distance to the "victim" makes it easier to be cruel (which is why we can't ignore a crying child on the street but easily can let thousands starve to death on another continent). That can happen by influencing how we think about other people (dehumanizing or demonizing "them", often used in racism), or by literally creating walls.

    Because normally a human lives under fear and anxiety, It's all about survival. That's what babies do, babies follow authority of parents, that's how they survive. They say in the first five-six years most neural connections are made, that means how ones gonna live their life is pretty much predictable. So in a way majority of humanity are just bigger babies, they just wanna survive so they go/follow where power/money/authority is.

    Today, one of the big traps is computers which are sold or perceived as "authorities". There are many cases today where people were affected by wrong decisions which were explained as "but the computer said so." Examples: A software identifies people by name and birth date. If there are two people with the same name and birthday, the software can't tell them apart, so some decisions will be mailed to the wrong person. Or an AI that suggests that police should patrol more in a certain area. This leads to more criminals being apprehended. But every police officer knows that you catch criminals on patrol anywhere in the city.
    Just last week, I read: "AI is neither artificial nor intelligent." All the data, the software and the hardware is all made and affected by humans. And it's not intelligent because it simply learns to respond to stimuli like Pavlov's dogs ... just without the dog.
    Therefore, Milgram is even relevant when it comes to "perfect" computers.

    I remember the Milligram experiment, I witnessed a portion of it on TV and remember thinking at the time: 'What is wrong with these people, why don't they just refuse to continue?' I was just a child at the time but I remember it clearly. Looking back at my childhood I realise now that I had and still have a rebellious streak and a mind of my own that I refuse to hand over to any authority figure. I now witness with despair the sheep-like behaviour of my fellow man and woman. I'll leave you to guess my feelings about our current world-wide political and medical situation...

    I wonder if the experiment comes up with such high results due to how many response prompts they had. For some reason, it felt like saying you didn't want to do it 4 times is a lot. People would pass a line where they thought, even subconsciously, that the conversation was circular; they do repeat most of the words each time. 2 prompts seem like a more natural "I don't want to do this." "Yes, I am sure I don't want to do this." type of thing. That may just be me though.

      but isn't that the whole point? to determine if people would still hurt someone even if an "authority" was pressuring them? the way i interpret the experiment is to determine how many people would be willing to do the right thing even if they have to go against someone's orders. ideally, you would want the participants to say no even if you asked them 400 times. only asking once or twice removes the authoritative pressure, thus defeating the whole point of the test

Lol But, I do still feel the levels went a bit heavy. The results, I guess, speak for themselves as they were repeatable. But I would imagine people, in general, wouldn't know what to do at that moment if they were told, "You have no other choice; you have to continue." I also wonder if there were any lasting psych effects on the people who had made it to 450v.

    Odd that I have read about this experiment many times before but the details hit differently this time. And while no one got hurt--at least not physically (certainly a lot of emotional trauma)--it still made me cry. People do not understand fully the things that influence their behavior. I have succumbed to peer pressure (groupthink/hive mind) when I was a kid but never to a point where it physically hurt anyone. Definitely emotionally. And vice versa. I have been hurt by groups of bullies both physically and emotionally. Cliques and social movements can sometimes harbor terrible people as much as they can harbor good.

      I am really sorry for what you went through but here is something i found about the experiment.
      Milgram was not oblivious to the psychological needs
      of his participants and was aware of the potential harm caused by the
      study. Immediately after the study, its true purpose was revealed to the
      participants. They were interviewed and given questionnaires to check
      they were all right. A friendly reconciliation was also arranged with the
      ‘victim’ whom they thought they had shocked. This procedure, known
      as debriefing, is commonplace today, but this was not the case in
      the 1960s. So, in this respect at least, Milgram was ahead of the game in
      terms of ethics procedures (Blass, 2004).
      Milgram also conducted a follow-up survey of the participants one year
      after the study, to ensure that there was no long-term harm
      (Colman, 1987). The results showed that 84 per cent said they were
      ‘glad to have been in the experiment’, and only 1.3 per cent said they
      were very sorry to have taken part. Milgram also described how the
      participants had been examined by a psychiatrist who was unable to find
      a single participant who showed signs of long-term harm. Morris
      Braverman, a 39-year-old social worker, was one of the participants in
      Milgram’s experiment who continued to give shocks until the maximum
      was reached. He claimed, when interviewed a year after the experiment,
      that he had learned something of personal importance as a result of
      being in the experiment. His wife said, with reference to his willingness
      to obey orders, ‘You can call yourself an Eichmann’ (Milgram, 1974,
      p. 54).
      I started with the belief that every person who came to the
      laboratory was free to accept or to reject the dictates of authority.
      This view sustains a conception of human dignity insofar as it sees
      in each man a capacity for choosing his own behavior.

    We'd like to think of ourselves that we'd never do something like that, but at the end of the day we don't know it, unless we're in the mentioned position.
    Also I think it is only part of something which can drive people to awful deeds. Something which the nazis did was giving freedom to do awful things to certain authorities. Nearly everyone who had this freedom turned gradually into an absolute monster, because it led to a downward spiral of incrementally normalizing certain deeds, down to the point of rape, murder and torture. Would we be amongst the few who would remain reasonable? Or would be be amongst the majority?
    In our current state nearly no one thinks that he or she would do stuff like that, but history has shown that the majority of us would.
    And something which I think is also likely is that it's easier to shape younger men and women, but obviously we can't do experiments like that.

    This study was brought up in my class one day. A teacher of mine posed the question to the class, "How would someone feel if the student was placed in front of them? or if they were placed in a different room, with nothing to hear or see? Do you think their sense of conviction would be different?" Obviously, it would. It would be easier to carry out the task if you didn't hear their pain. "That's why nowadays, it's easier to fire guns or bombs from a long distance without being scarred by human conviction, as long as it's not you or something that affects you directly. With just a press of a button, you can inflict so much harm. Imagine missiles that governments can carry out with just a bark of an order, as long as they don't see or experience something directly, they will never know how horrifying it is," he continued. That really made me think.

    This experiment didn’t explain: Fear of being seen as outcasts is linked to Herd and Tribal instincts, and drives our subliminal priorities for unconscious yearning for safety. Also, Dr. Milgram didn’t know to focus on the subject of sensory shutdown correlated with cognitive and moral blind spots, and he did know of the counterpoint of Emotional/Sensory Reawakening, based on engaging with music and the arts, and the existential significance of that during current COUNTDOWN2045.
    Surprisingly, 300 years ago J.S.Bach was aware of his music to have the effect of antidote to sensory deactivation pressure. That is the reason why he defied dogmas for zombified music. But his strive was not followed and his music became the victim of the tradition, contrary to his lifelong battle with inner force of Herd instinct. Most of his music had been performed in mechanical way. That is why, his miniature masterpiece with the meaning of musical Parody remained obscured and unnoticed.
    But when it was played with no emotional withholding, it revealed what should be hard to miss - many dissonant sonorities that were banned from use by rules of his time, and yet he emboldened their sonic clashing impact with rhythmic emphasis and used them many times and in such way that reveals his approach of neuroscientist to his music almost three centuries prior to birth of this field…

    People will obey only to those superiors who had the power to inflict corresponding punishments on them if their orders are unfulfilled.
    Weak minded people who are scared to implicate this jobs have the higher chance to obey the gruesome order. Well, I am not the one at fault here. I'm just following orders. They thought.
    And only those principled person have possessed the. courage to vehemently say no on this said evil order at the risk of thier jobs....

      I mean they almost certainly had the “no way this is actually real/happening” thoughts running through their heads.
      However, they also wouldn’t have known that they weren’t really shocking someone.
      The subjects couldn’t see the other person, they were given a shock themselves at the start, and the other person would scream and act as though it was real.
      And while they still couldn’t have been certain, I think the subjects showing signs of extreme anxiety suggests that they definitely at least thought that it could all be real.

      Remember the Nazis and any other system like this like in many prisons or concentration camps around the world? I assume the eye barrier is just like a 5th question in this case but you can easily overcome it with peer pressure. Allow eye contact and add a actor "audience / judges" who put pressure on the person. Most people are just weak to stand up, even if there are no consequences for themselves.

      Concentration camps were kept secret to the people of Germany. Out of sight, out of mind. If you don't see direct results of what your actions are doing, then you tend to go with authority. However, when pressed over and over, the vast majority of people break down to those making the rules.

      It mainly comes down to the will, ethics, and morals of the person. Some people will stop right away, while others will be pressured into following the leadership.

    Creo que la gente es capaz de hacer cosas malas con tal de no cuestionar a una autoridad. He sido docente y ahora trabajo en el gobierno (en educación) y veo que mis compañeros son capaces de seguir órdenes aunque reconozcan que no son correctas. Yo siempre tengo problemas con acatar a las autoridades y hacer lo que piden solo porque tienen un puesto de poder. Pero es desgastante y cuesta mucho; lo más cómodo es hacer caso y porque en el fondo, creo, no tienen claros sus propios principios éticos; se dejan llevar, son del montón sin criterio que abunda en todo mundo.

    "some of the participants would break out in fits of laughing..." This percentage of people is the part that nobody seems to want to understand or talk about: The percentage of ordinary people that are just waiting for an opportunity to joyously inflict suffering on a random victim.

Because even if they said you're not legally responsible, you know for sure that you'll be held accountable in the Day of Judgement in front of God, for inflicting harm on another person with no justified reason. And that you'll pay for it in the Hereafter, unless the other person forgives you.

Having only digestibly presentation of content ( at glance)about wickedness, evilness or any other "dark traits" of humanity and derived thru only "scientific method" it's deemed as "Valid" and feasible to their minds.
    Where is philosophical approach, where is spiritual intelligence, where is reverence of ancestral wisdoms and traditions?
    Here is everyone his "First Man" or Ubermensch if seen convenient with perpetual need of breaking thru wisdom and well established principles of morality.
    Very fallacious and opportunistic stance over everything ordained in Humanity.
