The Bystander Outline<\/p>\n
Introduction<\/p>\n
Thesis statement: An in-depth understanding of the concept of the bystander effect will help provide insights as to why people may choose to help a person or not depending on how many people are there and why it can be useful and problematic in different situations. <\/p>\n
Understating bystander effect bias <\/p>\n
The definition of the bystander effect<\/p>\n
The influence of how people are affected by how others perceive them when faced with a crime, a bully, or intervening in emergencies (Psychology Today Staff). <\/p>\n
Some examples <\/p>\n
An example is when a person fails to help a friend because they are an event when there are many people, and they fear that they will also be embarrassed if they help (Pl\u00f6tner et al., 2015).<\/p>\n
When a person fails to intervene in a robbery, they can’t stop because they are afraid they will be hurt. <\/p>\n
When and why the bystander effect can have positive outcomes <\/p>\n
It helps people stay calm during emergencies and helps people come down instead of acting irrationally, thus preventing the number of injuries and deaths (Fischer et al., 2011). <\/p>\n
It is good when effectively used to trigger and foster positive behavior and attitudes(Van Bommel et al., 2012). <\/p>\n
When it increases helping in situations with high expected negative consequences for the helper (Fischer & Greitemeyer, 2013)<\/p>\n
When and why the bystander effect can be problematic<\/p>\n
It is problematic when it results in the death or injury of someone who could have otherwise been saved (Kettrey & Marx, 2021). <\/p>\n
It is problematic if it results in breaking laws and norm violations that are likely to affect an individual later (Chekroun & Brauer, 2002). <\/p>\n
Therefore, the bystander effect might have a positive or negative impact depending on different situations and factors. <\/p>\n
Bystander effect talks about situations where a person will behave based on how they are likely to be perceived or affected by others in emergencies. <\/p>\n
The way we do nothing as we watch cyberbullying activities (Hendricks, 2014). <\/p>\n
Example of an event of bystander effect that resulted in positive outcomes<\/p>\n
The social movements and campaigns help to fight the violence that is likely to result in risks of death to help achieve a higher good (Jacob, 2021). <\/p>\n
Example of an event that showed why the bystander effect might be problematic. <\/p>\n
The killing of Kitty Genovese in Queens, New York, in 1964 (Emeghara, 2020). <\/p>\n
Conclusion <\/p>\n
In conclusion, one understands the different real-life situations that are hard to imag9ne happened through understanding the concept of the bystander effect. <\/p>\n
