Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Issuing orders over the telephone and lowering the prestige of the authority figure reduced the perceived legitimacy and authority of the experimenter, leading to a decrease in the tendency to obey. This was demonstrated in Milgram's experiments, where participants were less likely to continue administering shocks when the authority figure was not physically present and when their status and legitimacy were diminished.
