Solution

The correct answer is "nearly all; nearly all". In Charles Hofling's study on obedience, it was found that nearly all nurses obeyed the doctor's order to administer twice the maximum dose of an unknown drug. Additionally, when other nurses and student nurses were asked to predict their actions in a similar situation, nearly all predicted that they would refuse.
