The Bystander Effect

Jordan Burklow, LyondellBasell

Room: Floral A2

After the tragic events that occurred in New York City related to the murder of Kitty Genovese, a new study in the field of Psychology was opened which gave light to what is known as "The Bystander Effect" which found that as work group sizes grow, our likelihood of intervening in an emergency situation goes down. By understanding the key components of what leads to the Bystander Effect, and the ways in which we can collectively combat this phenomenon, we can equip our workers with the tools needed to ensure they intervene when presented with at-risk or emergency situations.
