Abstract
Groups of four Ss were ordered by the E to respond in a simple reaction time (RT) task in a way which (allegedly) would lead to the delivery of painful shock to a human “victim.” It was found that compliance with these orders declined under conditions where the victim was given the specific identity of the potential harmer. However, compliance was not directly influenced by whether or not the victim and potential harmer were in visual contact.
