Similiarties and Differences Between Studies
A similarity between Milgram and Perry et al would be that they were both conducted in an
artificially and highly controlled setting of a lab. In the study by Perry the task of selecting
preferred interpersonal distance was done through a computer animation, rather than through
actual physical interaction with people while in the study by Milgram the participants went
through the task of shocking an innocent individual, as a result this is not something people
would experience in their everyday lives and therefore it can be said that both the studies lack
mundane realism.
