English Summary/英文概要:

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 你有多邪惡?能傷害他人到什麼地步?
米爾格倫(Stanley Milgram)實驗狠狠揭開人類不願面對的領域
心理學家Gina Perry挖掘米爾格倫的秘辛
將實驗後續的血淚集結成震撼人心的故事

米爾格倫(Stanley Milgram)的研究結果震驚了全世界!這個實驗讓米爾格倫得到毀譽參半的評價,他既是為心理領域跨出一大突破的英雄,也由於實驗太具爭議而遭人批評。此實驗也給予半個世紀後的許多藝術家、作家、劇作家以及電影編劇豐沛的靈感。
實驗看似就結束在成果產生之後,但Gina Perry卻覺得此實驗尚未完結。比起實驗結果,她更在意當時參與實驗的志願者,他們往後的生活是否因此有所改變?Gina Perry發現,有些人在往後好幾年都身陷實驗帶來的夢魘,害怕自己是否會以科學之名再傷害他人。另外她也發現米爾格倫除了此實驗之外,還秘密發展一堆實驗,想測試人類能傷害所愛之人到什麼地步…。
本書集結志願者現身說法的血淚故事,以及米爾格倫尚未發表的文章及筆記,完整呈現在社會心理學領域最具影響力的實驗,以及令人好奇的後續發展。

【關於米爾格倫實驗】
1961-1962 年間,美國耶魯大學的心理學家米爾格倫(Stanley Milgram),做了一個驚人的「電擊實驗」。這個實驗的目的是要瞭解人們對於權威的服從。實驗參與者年齡從20歲到50歲不等,教育及成長背景各異。參與者都可以得到報酬。
他讓參與者扮演教師,並由研究者賦予他們權力來「電擊」那些無法正確回答測驗的學生。在這個實驗中,並沒有人真的被電擊,不過參與者會聽到自己發出的電擊的吱吱聲,以及受到電擊的學生反應(預錄好的慘叫及搥牆的聲音)。隨著電壓加強,學生會叫喊、怒罵逐漸到哀求、討饒、踢打,最後昏厥。研究者想要知道會不會有人在過程中停止實驗,以及,即使被研究者要求要繼續,他們會不會仍然堅持要中止。
即使許多參與者在過程中提出疑惑,但在參與者質疑時,研究者使用以下四個問句、按照順序要求參與者,若參與者在被問完四個問句後還是拒絕再繼續,這位參與者就可以離開實驗。這四個句子是:1.請繼續做下去;2.這個實驗要求你繼續;3.繼續下去是絕對必要的;4.你沒有其他選擇,你必須繼續。
最後有65%的參與者,在研究者要求之下,不斷地電擊學生直到使用到最強的電擊。
50年後的現在,結果是否會有所不同?美國、法國都重現了米爾格倫實驗,他們得到的結論是…
* 法國電視台曾於2010年重現米爾格倫實驗,拍成紀錄片《電椅大風吹》(The Game of Death),公共電視台曾播放此紀錄片:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i4jdMuhIjJI (紀錄片中文預告)
當時有80%的人使用到最強的電擊
* Discovery Channel於《絕對好奇: 險惡人心》(Curiosity: How Evil Are You?)節目中重現此實驗,參與者是一般美國民眾。結果發現仍有高達八成的人會作完實驗,使用到最強電擊。
但如果在參與者想停止實驗的當下,身邊有人陪他一起反抗研究者,則做完實驗的人數比例會大幅下降。(XAT & Eva)

Review
‘There may be no studies of the 20th century more haunting — or more revealing of human beings at their best and worst — than Stanley Milgram’s still-famous work. And here, finally, is a book that illuminates Milgram and his research subjects in riveting, compassionate detail. Read Gina Perry’s Behind the Shock Machine for its insightful look at human nature. And read it, too, because it is an absolutely compelling and terrific story.’--- Deborah Blum, author of Love at Goon Park

‘I have now finished reading your provocative magnum opus. Your writing is superb — enviably so. It is full of new info and insights, written with a literary flair so engaging and absorbing that I found it hard to put down.’---Thomas Blass, author of The Man Who Shocked the World

‘Behind the Shock Machine is a remarkable example of how good creative non-fiction is researched and written. Gina Perry has written a fascinating true story that fascinates and informs the reader at the same time.’---Lee Gutkind, editor of Creative Nonfiction

‘To believe there is not much more to say after 50 years of discussion of Stanley Milgram’s studies of obedience and conformity would be most unfortunate. In Behind the Shock Machine, Gina Perry invites us on her journey to the heart and soul of one of the most important social science experiments of the 20th century. Thoroughly researched and well-written, Behind the Shock Machine provides an absorbing account of Stanley Milgram, his subjects, and the continuing quest to understand what it means to be human.’---David B. Baker, Professor of Psychology at the University of Akron

‘Wonderful ... will finally shake the complacency that has surrounded discussions of this study for so long.---Ian Nicholson, Professor of Psychology at St. Thomas University

‘Behind the Shock Machine is a parable, and a warning, about what happens when research scientists trample over their human subjects on the road to personal posterity. Gina Perry has written a necessary and gripping book.’---Maria Tumarkin, author of Otherland
