The milgram experiment

“The milgram experiment” by Saul McLeod is an article about a man called Stanley milgram, a psychologist at Yale university, In 1962 he conducted an experiment on obedience. Milgram measured the eagerness of participants to comply with an authority figure.
I personally think that going back and reading it a second time gave me a better understanding of the text,I found it rather hard to understand the first time reading it and trying to understand what the text was about ,but going through again gave me a much better understanding of the concept of the text.I found it confusing trying to understand what “Saul McLeod’ was talking about because i couldn't comprehend what was going on until i had read it the second like and asked my classmates to explain to me what they understood of the text. Most people were willing to go and obey authority but in fact 65% of people were willing to go up to the highly voltage because they were told to, All of the participants continued to 300 volts. I personally would not go up to the voltage because i wouldn’t want to hurt myself or the other person or thing on the other side of the voltage,but in fact from a very young age we have been told what to do and to do as we are told by our parents and guardians,so we did as we were told as a sign of respect to our elders.

Reading the milgram experiment made me feel upset and hurt even though from a young age we have been told what to do by our parents and guardians, but in fact this hurts me reading this because they have to do as they are told,they have to choose weather to walk away and get killed or to stay and obey orders and hurt someone else or something in the process.But this is something i would hate to do,Getting forced into i highly powered voltage is highly dangerous and imagine if there is a person on the other side you have no idea what is on the other side all you know is that you have to be put into this highly voltage room and you have no idea of the outcome.This text makes you think about what you are reading and the severity of the text.
