PS 301 Colorado State University Social Psychology by Stanley Milgram Discussion

 

Prompt: Research in social psychology has changed a great deal in the past 100 years. An examination of modern research, as opposed to classic research, shows
differences with regard to the theoretical orientation (e.g., genetics, sociocultural approach, and social learning theory), ethics, and the basic versus applied
nature of the research. There are also differences between the classic and current research with regard to its influence on social behavior.

Assignment: First, choose a classic study from the Ten Classic Studies list. Second, find a more current study on the same general topic that was conducted and
published in the past 15 years. For example, you could choose Milgram’s obedience study AND choose a modern study on obedience (for example, obedience in
the workplace, military, or perhaps another setting). Then summarize each of the two studies in detail. Include the reference for each study. Your summary for each article should include information about the literature
review, research question or hypothesis, methodology, results, and the conclusion

Classic Study list: . Obedience to Authority – Stanley Milgram
Milgram, S. (1965). Some conditions of obedience and disobedience to authority. Human Relations,
18(1), 57–76. (Attached Below).
