Have you heard about the miracle in Sindang subway station? In 2005, a man got stuck between the subway and the platform. Soon, everyone in the subway got off and started to push the man. How could this happen? It was simple. One person suggested to push the subway, and two more people agreed to follow the suggestion and took action. Then all the people in the station helped the man to be rescued. It was only three people who changed the situation. From the example, we can find out the "Three People Effect". If so, what is the "Three People Effect"? In brief, it is that if three people act the same, other people also go along with the same thing. A few years ago, one TV program conducted an experiment about this effect. First, only one person pointed the sky without anything. Most of the people passing by just ignored the man and did not react at all. Next, two people did the same thing. Do you think that more people reacted? No, they didn't. The result was not very different. There were only few people who just glanced them. Finally, one more person joined and there were three people pointing the empty sky.

    Every day many of us are faced with the question, “Should I step in and help?”. Some of us immediately think yes and jump in to help, while others believe it is better to keep walking. The bystander effect happens when a person does not stop and help because they think someone else will. In these situations, some people stand up and respond to the crisis, because they are not worried about what will happen to them, but what will happen to the person in crisis instead. In the novel Night and the poem “The Hangman”, the bystander effect took place because people were afraid to bring attention to themselves.

    1157 Words  | 5 Pages

For people who don’t know the definition of a bystander, it means a person who is present at an event or incident but doesn’t respond. Why follow someone else when you can be an individual? People who believe that we as individuals shouldn’t have the law, but the reason that people wouldn’t follow the law if we enforce it. On the other hand, those who believe that our own selves should have the law contend that there should be consequences.

An example of this is the movie is when the two black guys in the stolen vehicle hit a man and because the other is present they feel it is best for their sake to stand by and run away from the man they just hit. This behavior shown towards the man who was hit is discourteous and occurred because the two men did not feel inclined to help the man they hit because the other was present. Defensive attribution is the tendency to blame the victim for the crime and is another aspect of social psychology found in the film Crash. One example of this in the film is the same example as stated before; when the two black men hit the pedestrian with a vehicle they stole.
