The bystander-effect

Explanation:

The bystander effect refers to the phenomenon in which the greater the number of people present, the less likely people are to help a person in distress. When an emergency situation occurs, observers are more likely to take action if there are few or no other witnesses. Being part of a large crowd makes it so no single person has to take responsibility for an action (or inaction). In this case John didn't call 911 because he saw people milling around the scene of the accident thinking they would have rendered the necessary help to the victims.

The bystander-effect

Explanation:

The bystander effect can be define as the inability of a person to render assistant to another person who is in an emergency situation because the person felt or think that the people around the person has render assistant to the person or intervene in the situation.

The bystander-effect are common among people, although it sometime done unintentionally because this people wish and desire to render assistant but the numbers of people around the victim often drawn them back from intervening in an emergency situation because they have concluded in their mind that help has reach that person or that the person had been attended to by the poeple that surround him /her. In this case the higher the numbers of people around the victim the less likely will he or she be attended to by someone that has by stander effect personality because the large presence of people has discouraged him/her to quickly intervene or responded to the emergency.

Therefore John reaction is an example of BYSTANDER EFFECT.

the reason the welfare system causes so much of a burden on its recipients is because the welfare system does not give its recipients any real tools to actually get out of poverty. the welfare system has embedded poverty deeper into society and has made it harder and harder for people to escape poverty.
