Primes¶
- Bystander Effect
This sourceCanonical experimental evidence for the bystander effect using the smoke-filled-room paradigm; foundational to the three-mechanism model (diffusion, ignorance, apprehension).
- Responsibility Diffusion
- Diffusion of responsibility predicts that a single witness to an emergency has higher rescue probability than one of many witnesses, despite the latter having more aggregate capacity, a relationship Latané and Darley (1968) quantified in their seizure-emergency experiments showing intervention rates dropping from 85% (alone) to 31% (in groups of four).
This sourceQuantifies the inverse relationship between number of witnesses and intervention probability in staged seizure emergencies, with intervention rates dropping from ~85% (alone) to ~31% (groups of four).

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. Neither this nor any other of the 2 citations of this work carries a recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
