Variation of Milgram experiment: males and women

"Charles Sheridan and Richard King hypothesized that some of Milgram's subjects may have suspected that the victim was faking, so they repeated the experiment with a real victim: a puppy who was given real electric shocks. They found that 20 out of the 26 participants complied to the end. The six that had refused to comply were all male (54% of males were obedient[23]); all 13 of the women obeyed to the end, although many were highly disturbed and some openly wept.[24]" [Milgram_experiment]
