The case of the Kitty Genovese murder, where for more than half an hour 38 respectable, law-abiding citizens in Queens watched a killer stalk and stab a woman, and not one person telephoned the police or intervened during the assault; one witness called after the woman was dead. ]]> 2018-11-13 17:21:45 UTC https://padlet.com/erinm12/ncchz887mp1b/wish/303891518 erinm12 https://padlet.com/erinm12/ncchz887mp1b/wish/303925914 The researchers explained the findings in terms of arousal and the costs and rewards of alternative responses. In this case, the closer one is to the emergency and the longer it continues, the more arousal increases. Arousal is also greatest when the bystander can empathise with the victim, which helped explain the reasons behind the different reactions to the different situations (drunk, ill, black or white). ]]> 2018-11-13 18:06:37 UTC https://padlet.com/erinm12/ncchz887mp1b/wish/303925914 erinm12 https://padlet.com/erinm12/ncchz887mp1b/wish/303930817 2018-11-13 18:14:18 UTC https://padlet.com/erinm12/ncchz887mp1b/wish/303930817 erinm12 https://padlet.com/erinm12/ncchz887mp1b/wish/303932115 Latane and Darley (1968) proposed that the key issue in deciding whether we help or not is whether we see it as our personal responsibility to do so. One reason why groups of people do not help individuals in need is that is shared equally among the group so that each person has only a small portion of responsibility. They call this idea 'diffusion of responsibility'.]]> 2018-11-13 18:16:19 UTC https://padlet.com/erinm12/ncchz887mp1b/wish/303932115 erinm12 https://padlet.com/erinm12/ncchz887mp1b/wish/303937902 Ethical Considerations:
- People observing the collapse felt some anxiety (psychological harm) and distress as they couldn't leave the area like if they were on the street as they were trapped in the carriage.
Validity:
- The ecological validity is very good as it is the participant's natural environment of being on their train, and the scene (collapse) is very plausible.]]> 2018-11-13 18:24:54 UTC https://padlet.com/erinm12/ncchz887mp1b/wish/303937902 erinm12 https://padlet.com/erinm12/ncchz887mp1b/wish/303995978 Give one disadvantage of a field experiment for this investigation.]]> 2018-11-13 19:44:56 UTC https://padlet.com/erinm12/ncchz887mp1b/wish/303995978 erinm12 https://padlet.com/erinm12/ncchz887mp1b/wish/303997589 Suggest why the study by Piliavin et al. did not provide evidence for diffusion of responsibility.]]> 2018-11-13 19:47:50 UTC https://padlet.com/erinm12/ncchz887mp1b/wish/303997589 erinm12 https://padlet.com/erinm12/ncchz887mp1b/wish/303999577 2018-11-13 19:51:33 UTC https://padlet.com/erinm12/ncchz887mp1b/wish/303999577 erinm12 https://padlet.com/erinm12/ncchz887mp1b/wish/304001055 2018-11-13 19:53:53 UTC https://padlet.com/erinm12/ncchz887mp1b/wish/304001055
