An investigator compiled data from several variations of Stanley Milgram's research into obedience to examine how physical proximity (of both the learner and the authority figure) influenced the percentage of participants who administered the maximum voltage of 450V.
| Experimental Condition | Percentage of participants administering maximum shock (450V) |
|---|---|
| Condition X: Baseline procedure (Experimenter present in room, learner in adjacent room) | 65% |
| Condition Y: Proximity variation (Learner positioned in the same room as the participant) | 40% |
| Condition Z: Remote instruction variation (Experimenter leaves the room and gives orders via telephone) | 20.5% |
Using the data in the table above, outline two conclusions that can be drawn about how proximity affects obedience.
