Milgram Studies

The video discusses Stanley Milgram's study on power and conformity, where participants were divided into two groups: one asked questions and the other administered shocks for incorrect answers. Initially reluctant, participants became more willing to deliver shocks when assured of no personal repercussions. The study demonstrated how individuals conform to authority and societal pressures, even when it involves harming others.

How did the assurance of no negative repercussions affect the participants' behavior?

What conclusion can be drawn about conformity from the Milgram studies?
