Understanding Why People Hesitate to Help Others in Crisis Situations

This study by Bridgette May, Kylie Nichols, Mari Mullens, and Ivonte Whitted explores the psychological barriers that prevent individuals from helping others in distress, especially when the situation may pose danger. The hypothesis suggests that self-preservation instincts often outweigh the urge to assist those in need. Shocking findings reveal that even community leaders, like pastors, may struggle to intervene, reflecting deep-rooted fears and social dynamics at play. The research sheds light on human behavior and the complexities of altruism in perilous circumstances.
