Psychology Final: Bystander Effect Experiment

For those of you who don't know what Bystander Effect is-
A social psychological phenomenon that refers to cases where individuals do not offer help in an emergency situation when other people are present. The probability of help has in the past been thought to be inversely related to the number of bystanders; in other words, the greater the number of bystanders, the less likely it is that any one of them will help.

Our Psychology class had to create an experiment and provide a visual. Obviously, this is the visual. Our hypothesis was that Females would receive help faster than Males. As you watch, you will discover whether our hypothesis was wrong or right.
Doing this made me really dislike people. Or just society in general. Just watch the reactions closely, the glances, double takes, etc.

@KonnichiwaSushi Yeah I didn't realise which person I was suppose to look at until the end :/

Honestly, there wasn't much time given for the male participant, unless it just wasn't uploaded then excuse me for my mistake.

@julieetran Oh now I get it. I guess we were looking at that hooded figure in brown. >..> Sonofagun, that person looks like they're taking a nap or something - who's going to view that as an emergency. = = If this was a psychology final, It must have gotten a pretty dim mark. x_x

@KonnichiwaSushi I guess the female and male individuals were just depressed or sad? Wouldn't really consider that as an emergency though, so not sure :s

Also, to the uploader, just a note that you shouldn't say that your hypothesis was 'right' but supported; a hypothesis is never right or wrong :)
