  Hey 🙂 I think we covered this in your session so I think you can ask your teacher for the transcript which is the print-out of our answers 🙂

  Hi! Ooh yes, get hold of that transcript, I remember it was a very interesting chat. Have a look at Zimbardo and Milgram if you haven’t already. You might also like to look at research on group pressures on conformity such as Asch (1951). Good luck with your project – it’s a very interesting topic and continues to be relevant!
