• Stanley Milgram's classic experiments on
  obedience shocked the field of social psychology,
  both for the methods used and the outcomes of his
  experiments, which documented the phenomenon
  that, when personal conscience and the demands of
  authority clash, the demands of authority will
  usually win. Do you believe that Milgram's
  experiments were ethical? Why or why not?

• As discussed in your Week Four readings, there
  are four factors that impact the persuasiveness
  of a message the communicator (who says it), the
  message (what is said), the channel (how it is
  said), and the audience (to whom it is said).
  Using this knowledge, I would like for each one
