Great question Jude.
The Good Samaritan needs two checkboxes to overwhelm the social bystander effect.
1. Not a large number of people (I.e. just one Good Samaritan. I.e. this man needs my help there is no one else who can help)
2. The feeling of competence (I.e. this man appears to be having a heart attack and I am nurse I can help him versus this man is having a medical issue and I don’t know what to do I hope someone else on this subway is a doctor)
Great question
