In an experiment volunteers are instructed by an experimenter to administer an electric shock every time a learner makes a mistake. How many would go right up the scale to 450 Volts? This study goes some way towards explaining how ordinary people can commit the most horrific of crimes if placed under the influence of a malevolent authority.
