Bed Of Nails Experiment

171 Words1 Page

I went to Physics Phun Nite and it was amazing. There were many different experiments. Notably, Bruce’s experiments with the bed of nails looked painful but he turned out okay. If I tried that myself, I would get hurt because I would not be able to let all the pressure evenly distributed through all my body. The experiment may not be appropriate for children to try, but letting them watch this just makes them eye-opened. Of course, there were many other safe kid experiments which they volunteered to try. Although, if some child understands how pressure and other physics related materials in the experiment “Bed of Nails” work, they may eventually want to perform this. In my point of view, after I saw the experiments, I went home and googled

  • Stanley Milgram's The Perils Of Obedience

    1014 Words  | 5 Pages

    Like Psychologist Diana Baumrind did so in her article “Review of Stanley Milgram’s Experiments”. Where she makes it very clear that she disagrees with causing individuals stress and discomfort. In her article, Baumrind states “It is potentially harmful to a subject to commit, on the course of an experiment, acts which he himself considers unworthy, particularly when he has been entrapped into committing such acts by an individual he has reason to trust” which in this case the trustworthy individual would be Stanley Milgram. Baumrind also worried about the dangers of the serious aftereffects that may ensure because of the stress and discomfort Stanley Milgram’s experiment has caused. Even though Stanley Milgram states that “After the interview, procedures were undertaken to assure that the subject would leave the laboratory in a state of well-being.”

    To me, this test proves does not support his thesis, because there are tests (such as the marshmallow experiment) that prove that children are not worried about long-term commitments/events/situations. Therefore, the first set of children who did not have anyone watching them just wanted the reward. The second and third group also wanted the reward, but at that point if they cheated they wouldn’t get it, and there “was” someone there to tell one them. Thus, their best shot at winning was to follow the impossible rules. What are the larger implications of this work (if this theory is correct) on the large world

  • Why Is Milgram's Research Important?

    950 Words  | 4 Pages

    While arguably one of the defining psychological studies of the 20th Century, the research was not without flaws. Almost immediately the study became a subject for debate amongst psychologists who argued that the research was both ethically flawed and its lack of diversity meant it could not be generalized. Ethically, a significant critique of the experiment is that the participants actually believed they were administering serious harm to a real person, completely unaware that the learner was in fact acting. Although Milgram argued that the illusion was a necessary part of the experiment to study the participants’ reaction, they were exposed to a highly stressful situation. Many were visibly distraught throughout the duration of the test

    The blue eyed – brown eyed experiment in my opinion is indeed ethical. The issue at hand with this experiment is will it cause permeant future psychological damage. Jane Elliott conducted this experiment with her third-grade students which some would say it is too harsh of an exercise for a group that young; She wanted to teach her student that discrimination is wrong which have been a topic they discussed from the first day of school but felt the student would become confused with the fact she just honored Dr. king in the month of February and now she had to explain to them that he was assassinated because of discrimination. Jane Elliott agreed that this exercise can do Psychological damage if not conducted correctly but the benefits are remarkable.
