　　The “Bystander Apathy （漠不关心）Effect” was first studied by researchers in New York after neighbours ignored—and in some cases turned up the volume on their TVs—the cries of a woman as she was murdered (over a half-hour period). With regard to helping those in difficulty generally, they found that:

　　(1) women are helped more than men;

　　(2) men help more than women;

　　(3) attractive women are helped more than unattractive women.

　　Other factors relate to the number of people in the area, whether the person is thought to be in trouble through their own fault, and whether a person sees himself as being able to help.

　　According to Adrian Furnham, Professor of University College, London, there are three reasons why we tend to stand by doing nothing:

　　(1) “Shifting of responsibility”一the more people there are, the less likely help is to be given. Each person excuses himself by thinking someone else will help, so that the more “other people’ there are, the greater the total shifting of responsibility.
