The instructor tells the teacher that this is a memory test and if the learner misses a question then the learner will be shocked with voltages varying from 15 volts to 450 volts. The only way for the teacher to quit the experiment is to refuse to obey the instructor. The first subject does just this, as expected, and refuses to continue the experiment. Milgram asked various people for their predictions about the experiment. They predicted that the teachers would stop, not going past 150volts, while only one in a thousand would actually go to 450 volts.
5. Which group's test scores had the least amount of variability or dispersion? Provide a rationale for your answer. Ans: The control group had the least amount of variability (SD 10.34) because the control group was not provided the same resources that the experimental group was provided. 6.
Jonah Lehrer, the author of “The Neuroscience of Screwing Up”, is referring to the subjectivity of the students in regards to the science experiment. The students didn’t even watch the video and yet they have already formed their own opinions (lehrer, 2010). Their beliefs blinded their conclusions. They saw only what they wanted to see. It is obvious that the physics students were very subjective in their thinking; their preconceptions inhibit how they see the experiment and data being presented (lehrer, 2010).
Milgram put a twist on the experiment asking the age-old question of, “if the Germans during WWII were simply obeying to authority when carrying out the Holocaust or were they all acting on their own”. The test subject, or teacher, would administer electric shocks to the learner, a paid actor, when the learner incorrectly answered the word pairings. The teacher thought the learner was receiving electric shocks when in reality the learner was not receiving any shocks. An instructor, the authoritative figure, was sitting behind the teacher reassuring the teacher that the shocks may be painful but would not inflict permanent damage. Throughout the experiment, the teacher can be seen looking back towards the instructor for permission on whether to continue or stop .The teacher instructed the learner to continue even when the learner cried out in pain and begged for the experiment to stop.
The work placement officer asks you to include a description of how anti-discriminatory practice can be promoted in health and social care so that the booklet can be given to students before they go on placement. You have investigated in detail one recent national policy initiative promoting anti-discriminatory practice and your

(2011, p.22) had to evaluate the effects of implementing the Advancing Research and Clinical Practice through cross collaboration (ARCC) model. It was aimed at addressing the effects on nurses and the outcomes and its impact a community setting. To facilitate the study, a 2-group of controlled and randomized sample was used for the design. Nurse participants were recruited from Queens, the Bronx and Manhattan. The findings indicated the effectiveness of ARCC model incorporating the EBP in home healthcare settings and mentoring nurse beliefs about EBP and its implementation (Levin at al., 2011, p.21).
As I said before, its 2012 and many people voice their opinion and everyone isn’t God fearing human beings. Some may feel as though their rights are being ignored. As it was in my school you had to recite the Pledge, whether you liked it or not. I have heard of things such as if the child is an atheist or doesn’t want to say it could sit down or be sent out the room while that time is going on. But if we are a country of democracy why should someone be forced into reciting or doing something they don’t feel believe in.

Learning the wrong thing can affect the way a person thinks long term. Students and/or school faculty can influence you in good or bad ways. Students should have some influence to what they learn in school because the teacher is not always right. In “Young Students Against Bad Science” by Douglas Quenqua, Zack Kopplin, a 20 year old from Louisiana, is campaigning to stop the teaching of creationism in public schools. He doesn’t agree with the fact that creationism is being taught in science classrooms.
