Both of these factors are by far very different though both have the same objective which is asking people to act in the ways that they want. As mentioned by Saundra and J. Noland (2015), “There is a difference between the concepts of compliance, which is agreeing to change one’s behaviour because someone else asks for the change, and obedience, which is changing one’s behaviour at the direct order of an authority figure.” (p. 497). For the example of compliance and obedience, when a person is driving along the road, he sees someone by the roadside who is signalling him to stop the car and he notices that the person is his friend. After a moment of thinking, he then decides to stop his car. In the case of obedience, if that someone he sees is a police officer, then he will have no choice besides to stop his car.
