Addressing the Bystander Effect in the Workplace - TMS Consulting Human behaviour is an interesting phenomenon. As a Psychologist, I often observe the actions of others and reflect on why it is we behave and respond to the world in the ways that we do. A few days ago a Melbourne colleague sent me a link to an interesting article published in The Age on January 29th. At the request of one bystander for help, she approached and spoke to the young man until emergency services arrived. Reflecting on the article, I actually did not feel surprised at the lack of action from those at the station. If it was you in this situation, how would you respond? Interestingly, a lot of research has been conducted on such situations and how people respond to dangerous or traumatic events. In my experience as a consultant working with organisations, we see similar effects in response to occupational violence, workplace bullying, harassment, and discrimination. So why does this phenomenon occur? As humans, we are hard wired to avoid threatening situations.

How The Bystander Effect Could Promote Bullying - NoBullying - Bullying & CyberBullying ResourcesNoBullying – Bullying & CyberBullying Resources According to GreatSchools.org, bullies need and like bystanders because they prefer to bully others in front of their peers when adults are not watching. However, bullies are more likely to stop if the audience shows disapproval. Even when some kids want to help, they do not do so because they are confused or afraid of the bully or what others might think of them if they intervene. When kids do nothing, bullies tend to feel more empowered and will continue to physically or verbally harass other kids. Understanding the bystander effect and resulting behavior can help parents address this issue with their kids and teach them to take more proactive roles. How the “Bystander Effect” Started The bystander effect refers to situations in which people are less likely to help those in need when there is a greater number of people around them. Among those participants who were alone, 70 percent reacted. Interestingly, 70 percent of the friend pairs help, which was the same as the solo group.
Sexual Assault Bystander Intervention Akubra girl ‘Dolly’ Amy Everett’s father launches anti-bullying campaign after daughter’s suicide | Australia news The suicide of “Dolly” Amy Jayne Everett, the face of Akubra, has sparked a campaign to end cyberbullying, as her family prepare to farewell the 14-year-old in a commemoration ceremony in the Northern Territory. Her father, Tick Everett, described his grief on social media this week, saying his beloved daughter felt she had no other option. “I know for some suicide is considered cowardly but I guarantee those people wouldn’t have half the strength that my precious little angel had, Doll had the strength to do what she thought she had to do to escape the evil in this world,” he wrote on Facebook. “However, unfortunately, Dolly will never know the great pain and emptiness left behind. Tick Everett said his daughter’s death would not be wasted if the family could help to prevent the suffering of others. “Let’s stop the bullies no matter where, but especially in our kids, as the old saying goes. An image of Everett, taken eight years ago, was used as the face of Akubra’s Christmas campaigns.
Understanding the Bystander Effect What Is the Meaning of Bystander Effect? The bystander effect, also known as bystander apathy, refers to a phenomenon in which the greater the number of people there are present, the less likely people are to help a person in distress. If you witnessed an emergency happening right before your eyes, you would certainly take some sort of action to help the person in trouble, right? While we might all like to believe that this is true, psychologists suggest that whether or not you intervene might depend upon the number of other witnesses present. How the Bystander Effect Works When an emergency situation occurs, the bystander effects holds that 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). As the participants sat filling out questionnaires, smoke began to fill the room.
