Summary of research |
What impact did the research have on past and present social psychological ideals? |
How did the media, past and present, influence societal behavior? |
|
Stanley Milgram |
Obedience to Authority Figures (1961) |
By administering electro-shock, Milgram observed and recorded to what extent people would continue an action of harm if encouraged to do so by an authority figure (McLeod, 2007) |
 |  |
|
Philip Zimbardo |
Aggression-good to evil (1971 & 2007) |
Zimbardo embarks on explaining, through psychological theories and practices, why seemingly ordinary good people commit despicable acts; in essence they turn evil. This research is the follow up to Zimbardo’s Stanford Prison Experiment. The experiment was supposed to last 2 weeks, but was stopped after 6 days (Zimbardo, 2006) |

Solomon Asch |
Conformity (1951) |
Asch reconstructs Sherif’s (1935) conformity study to determine if an individual will conform to a group norm if pressure is applied from the majority of the group (McLeod, 2008). |
