Comment on Women STEM students up to twice as likely as non-STEM students to have experienced sexism
MrFunnyMoustache@lemmy.ml 9 months agoThe bystander effect is really common. I remember when I got first aid training, they told us that in an emergency, you have to tell a specific person to do something rather than ask “someone call an ambulance”.
I think bystander effect should be regularly discussed in schools so people will be aware of it. Getting people to automatically respond and do something and offer help is a pretty important step to making our society safer and healthier.
