Final answer:

Recent analyses of the Milgram archives do not support the criticism that the majority of participants experienced long-term psychological harm from participating in the experiments.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement that does NOT describe a criticism of Milgram that has been supported through recent analyses of the Milgram archives is: The majority of participants experienced long-term psychological harm as a result of their participation. While Milgram's experiments were critiqued for ethical shortcomings, including inadequate debriefing procedures and the misleading ways in which participants were classified as obeying, the claim of long-term psychological harm lacks substantial evidence and is not supported by recent analyses. The Milgram experiments were noted for their reliable results, showing that a significant proportion of people were willing to administer what they believed to be lethal shocks to another person when instructed by an authority figure.
