Question

question 8 of 10
milgrams experiment was trying to find out why people:

a. agree with the experimenter.

b. do not say which line they have really seen.

c. obey authority figures.

d. willingly hurt other people.

Explanation:

Milgram's experiment focused on investigating obedience to authority. It examined how far people would go in following orders from an authority figure, even when those orders involved actions that could harm others. Option A is incorrect as the experiment wasn't about agreeing with the experimenter. Option B relates to Asch's conformity experiments (line - judgment tasks), not Milgram's. Option D is a misrepresentation; the experiment was about obedience to authority, not a desire to hurt others. So the correct answer is C.

Answer:

C. obey authority figures.
