of stimulation. The electric shock acts as an action potential by changing the membrane permeability allowing the sodium and potassium ions to pass through. At different levels of stimulation the motor neurons stimulate a motor unit and the more stimulation the more motor units become active. When the voltage was set at 0 or .1 there was no reaction because the shock wasn’t able to trigger the threshold for action potential production. The lowest reaction with shock was .3 volts created by a contraction

that Stanley Milgram did with a shock box; he tested 1‚000 non-college males between the ages of 20 and 50 (500 from New Haven and 500 from Bridgeport). A wrong answer meant that the learner received a shock and a correct answer meant that the learner received a reward. The learner could be the middle-aged person or as young as 20. The shock box starts at 15 volts and works its way up to 450 volts in increments of 15. When it gets to 375‚ it says danger‚ severe shock. When the learner starts to scream

Milgram’s study of obedience to authority‚ and the ethical issues it raised for social psychologists The following essay will discuss psychologist Stanley Milgram’s study of obedience to authority‚ and will outline the ethical issues it raised for social psychologists. Milgram was inspired by the Nuremburg trials and the defense of many ex-nazis being that they were coerced into assisting the genocide by simply following orders from higher authority figures. Milgram set out to see if ordinary

I will also differentiate the role of economic shocks with labor market institutions‚ to come to a conclusion on what the real cause of unemployment is‚ and hence‚ discover whether there is Euro-Sclerosis existent‚ and if so‚ how to control it through labor reforms.
