One issue with Asch's study is...

It is of its time and therefore might not be valid now

The experiment was not highly controlled

Its sample was representative of the population

It used confederates which makes the study unethical

What is a problem with the task difficulty variation that Asch performed?

There might be other mediating factors such as self-efficacy

It was not highly controlled, their were multiple variables being manipulated at once, intentionally

There is research which disagrees with the findings

Asch exaggerated the results of the study

The aim of Zimbardo's study was to investigate...

to what extent people would conform to their social roles

whether or not people would obey the prison guards in a mock prison environment

85% of them were glad to have taken part

The participants were aggressive towards the experimenter

Which variation of Milgram's study produced the highest obedience levels?

Proximity to the experimenter (phone condition)

Proximity to the participant (shock plate condition)

A strength of Milgram's original study was...

It accurately reflects obedience in real life

His variations were highly controlled and therefore the studies have internal validity

There is research to support from Asch

There is cross-cultural support for his variations

Which of these is a dispositional factor which explains why people obey?

The locus of control explanation

Authoritarian personalities often develop...

through being exposed to left-wing views

Milgram and Elms supported the authoritarian personality theory through...

asking the original participants of the experiment to complete the f-scale questionnaire

repeating the study and asking them to complete a follow up interview about their personality

getting confederates who also played the role of the learner to refuse to continue

asking psychology students to decide whether or not the individuals in the original study had an A.P through watching the video recordings

A socio-psychological factor is...

A factor which shows people influence on you

A factor which affects other peoples behaviour

The agentic state theory suggests...

People move from an autonomous state to an agentic state where people believe they have no responsibility for their actions

We are influenced by people we perceive have power over us because of societal hierarchies and therefore obey these individuals

There are destructive authority figures who cause us to behave in a negative way and carry out behaviours we wouldn't usually

The legitimacy of authority explanation was supported by Milgram who suggested...

people expect there to be an authority figure in an experiment so obey

people will obey authority figures if they don't have social support

65% of participants went to 300V's

He asked participants to complete a questionnaire which measured the responsibility the took

He asked confederates to refuse to do the experiment

He asked participants to stand nearer to an authority figure

He asked participants to complete a questionnaire which measured how likely they were to obey authority figures

The main problem with the LOC questionnaire is it can't...

accurately reflect how people act in real life

be repeated to find the same results

show all cultures LOC personality

be generalisable to everyone in the general population

The LOC theory cannot explain...

conformity in all situations, only when influenced by NSI

everyone's obedience because of individual differences

the different reasons why people obey

Social support suggests that we resist conformity because...

of the feeling of solidarity among yourself and others

we like to believe we can over power authority figures

we recognise them as destructive authority figures

we take personal responsibility for our actions

A problem with the social support explanation is...

It is difficult to study as it is hard to observe mediating factors that might play a role

There is little evidence to support the idea
