Hawthorne effect

“In the Unlikely Event of a Water Landing” Two young psychologists, John Darley and Bibb Latane, put together two well thought out experiments to rationalize the response time of individuals in groups. After reading about the brutal attack of Catherine Genovese in New York in 1964, which ultimately lead to her death, the two men were on a mission to figure out why nobody helped. Even with the witnesses being awakened by her screams, they chose to do nothing about it until it was too late. After…

The reason for people not assisting when others are present is the result of wanting to conform. Other people’s behavior is accepted…

That feeling is caused by a phenomenon known as the bandwagon effect. The bandwagon effect is when one accepts an idea because other people do. Concepts such as the bandwagon effect are explored in Ayn Rand’s Anthem. In the novella, there is a collectivist society that believes more in the importance of the group instead of the individual. Everyone in the society has the same beliefs and follows the same rules due to the bandwagon effect. Personal preferences are suppressed, and people who…

What would you do if you saw someone being treated unfairly and they were in need? Would you help them? In “To Kill a Mockingbird” by Harper Lee and “Nobel Prize Acceptance Speech” by Elie Wiesel are examples on why bystanders are guilty.

inform those involved of the legalities consistent with the emergency management field. Attorneys are ethically bound to represent their clients zealously. “This means that society in general is less important than the client’s best interest, so the effect of representation on the client is the lawyer’s main focus” (Nicholson, W. C., 2008, p. 81-82). This knowledge is simply understanding there can be a right and wrong side to every story, however, having an attorney on the department’s side…
