Experimenter told “teacher” to stop delivering the shock even though the “learner” clearly indicated that he wanted the study to go on 100% of the time, the “teacher” stopped delivering shock Obedience Study: Replications cp

The experimenter (the authority figure) was hooked up to the shock generator, and the “learner” gave the directives to continue 100% of the time the “teachers” stopped delivering shock when the experimenter said to Obedience Study: Replications cp

Two experimenters gave contradictory orders. One ordered the “teacher” to continue giving the shock, the other ordered the “teacher” to stop “Teachers” asked for consensus, but 100% of the time ultimately stopped delivering shock Obedience Study: Replications cp

I don’t have a lot of time, and I’d like him to have some medication by the time I get to the ward. Will you please check your medicine cabinet and see if you have some Astroten? That’s A-S-T-R-O- T-E-N.

The medicine cabinet contains a pillbox: ASTROTEN 5 mg. capsules Usual dose: 5 mg Maximum daily dose: 10 mg The researcher continues, “You have it? Fine. Please give Mr. Jones 20 milligrams of Astroten, that’s 4 capsules. I’ll be up in 10 minutes, and I’ll sign the order then, but I’d like the drug to have started taking effect.

Doctor’s Orders There were 4 reasons why the nurse should have refused the order: Prescription given over the phone, which was in violation of hospital policy Medication was unauthorized Dosage was obviously and dangerously excessive Physician was unknown to the nurse cp

95% of the nurses obeyed!!!
