Detailed explanation-1: -Examples of Obedience to Authority One example of obedience to authority in history was the tragic events that unfolded in Nazi Germany during World War II when Adolf Hitler ordered his subordinates to commit unspeakable atrocities against persons of the Jewish faith, people with disabilities, and other citizens.
Detailed explanation-2: -Obedience to authority is the tendency people have to try to please those in charge. Psychological evidence indicates that people tend to respect and follow those whom they perceive to have legitimate authority. This can lead to trouble if it causes people to fail to exercise their own independent ethical judgment.
Detailed explanation-3: -In everyday situations, people obey orders because they want to get rewards, because they want to avoid the negative consequences of disobeying, and because they believe an authority is legitimate. In more extreme situations, people obey even when they are required to violate their own values or commit crimes.
