* The goal of the Milgram experiment was to test the extent of humans' willingness to obey orders from an authority figure.

* Participants were told by an experimenter to administer increasingly powerful electric shocks to another individual. Unbeknownst to the participants, shocks were fake and the individual being shocked was an actor.

* The majority of participants obeyed, even when the individual being shocked screamed in pain.

* The experiment has been widely criticized on ethical and scientific grounds.
