Dr. Parker is conducting a study on the effects of social pressure on decision-making. In this experiment, participants are asked to participate in a group task where they must choose between two options: one option that benefits the group and another that benefits only the individual. Dr. Parker plans to observe how peer influence affects participants’ decisions in a group setting. To study this, Dr. Parker invites 20 college students to participate, telling them that the study is about group dynamics and decision-making. However, Dr. Parker intentionally does not inform the participants that the study’s primary goal is to observe how social pressure influences their choices. Additionally, Dr. Parker instructs several confederates (people who are secretly part of the research team) to act in a way that pressures the participants into making decisions that benefit the group, even when those decisions may not align with their personal preferences. At the beginning of the study, Dr. Parker tells the participants that they will be working in a team to solve a problem and that their individual preferences will be considered equally in the final decision. However, throughout the study, the confederates subtly push participants to conform to the group’s choices, and the participants are unaware that this influence is part of the research design. Dr. Parker does not inform the participants that their decision-making process is being manipulated and that they are being studied for their responses to social pressure. At the end of the experiment, Dr. Parker debriefed the participants, revealing that the true aim of the study was to observe the effects of peer pressure on individual decision-making. Several participants expressed discomfort and frustration, feeling misled by the information they were given at the beginning and during the course of the study.
