Pretty sure this is Stanley Milgram's experiments on obedience in (1963). It was designed to make people think they were punishing someone for answering questions wrong. The idea is it should have become clear that they were slowly killing this guy they could hear on the other side of a wall (but couldn't see). 2/3 kept shocking the guy till he was dead (or acted like he was killed).
During the experiment, they would look concerned and turn and ask "what the hell" -- but the dr. would just say "the experiment requires you continue." That was good for most, some would clarify: "you accept the responsibility?" and the dr. would say yes.
This was done to see how people in Nazi Germany could do the shit they did. Well it turns out about 2/3 are fucking sheep that will do anything an authority figure tells you you have to. But there were some guys didn't respond well at all, like an ex military guy that after the 2nd shock or so was like "what do you mean I have to continue -- no I don't!"
