Bystander effect
Bystander effect refers to the finding that the greater the number of bystanders who witness an emergency, the less likely any one of them is to help. It is the phenomenon that underlies many examples of failing to help strangers in distress: the larger the group a person is in (or thinks he is in), the less likely he is to come to a stranger's assistance. One reason is diffusion of responsibility (no one thinks it is his responsibility to act).
