12. Discuss the factors that promote bystander apathy and de-individuation and how an examination of moral development helps us understand individuals’ responses to these factors.
John Darley and Bibb Latane, were social psychologists, they gave eyewitnesses the benefit of a doubt when put in a situation that would need someone to intervene. In unquestionable instances most people react the same way and avoid being involved. They then staged different emergencies. With the results they concluded that, most people help out the victim if the situation empowers us to first realize the situation, then to illuminate is as an emergency. Then they must take action to help out. During each steps the existence of others can stir us away from from helping others. When there are more than one person helping, we are less likely to help take action. There are some things that play factors into helping they are as follows:
•The person appears to need and deserve help.
•The person is in some way similar to us.
•The person is a woman.
•We have just observed someone else being helpful.
•We are not in a hurry.
•We are in a small town or rural area.
•We are feeling guilty.
•We are focused on others and not preoccupied.
•We are in a good mood.
In other cases we we lose self awareness and are unable to restrain are self from joining into things such as rioting to something like a food fight. This is known as deindividuation. This is most commonly found when group contribution makes the individuals excited or they remain unknown. This prospers sometimes for good and other times for bad, in a multitude of settings.
