Who thought that conditioning a young child to be terrified of anything white and fluffy could have any long lasting side effects? Well, pretty much anyone really if you think about it. That didn't stop someone from sciencing the hell out of it anyway. This as well as a few other "fun" behavioral experiments are what's on Dans mind this week. From an innocent conformity test to some not so innocent instances of making someone believe they are actually issuing out corporal punishment for wrong answers just because they were told to. Like I said, fun! All of this and a whole lot more on this weeks episode of Gettin' Sidetracked!
