In Milgram's obedience experiment, one of the many adjustments made by the experimenter to his “prods” is the regular use of “we” instead of the “you” required by the protocol. For example, he might say “we must continue” instead of “you must continue.” This text aims to describe the appearance for this use of “we” and suggests ways to understand what the “we” means for the experimenter who uses it, for the subject to whom it is addressed. Although Milgram describes a dualism (I–you), with an authority dominating a subject reduced to the agentic state, the “we” is a sign of similarity between those involved in the interaction and indicates cooperation rather than domination.

“我们必须继续。” 米尔格拉姆实验中“我们”而不是“你”的奇怪外观

在米尔格拉姆的服从实验中，实验者对他的“刺激物”所做的许多调整之一是经​​常使用“我们”而不是协议要求的“你”。例如，他可能会说“我们必须继续”而不是“你必须继续”。这篇文章旨在描述“我们”这个用法的外观，并提出了一些方法来理解“我们”对于使用它的实验者，对于它所针对的对象意味着什么。尽管米尔格拉姆描述了一种二元论（我-你），权威支配着一个主体，还原为代理状态，但“我们”是参与互动的人之间相似性的标志，表示合作而不是支配。
