RE: Psychology Addict # 50 | Why Good People Do Evil Things?
Hey @leaky20 😊
Let me just start by telling you that I laughed out loud at this:
Often, as Milgrim pointed out, a series of small steps can lead to "shocking" results.....pun pun pun pun. Lol.
Oh my ... 😂
Yep, I am familiar with the SPE experiment as well as with the recent criticism towards it.
I only learnt about The Acali (The raft experiment) a couple of months ago through a recently released documentary my husband found when looking for something for us to watch.
Whenever you have 90 minutes to spare I recommend you to see it. It is both disturbing and fascinating. Mostly because Genovés was not testing a hypotheses (although, I assume, he thought he was); rather, he manipulated things in a way to arrive to the findings he wanted to see. Yet, the events developed in exactly the opposite way. Humans are indeed fascinating beings @leaky20.
As always, it pleases me very much to hear you enjoyed reading my writing. Your comments are very encouraging :)
I wish you a great, relaxing weekend.
All the best.
