THE BYSTANDER EFFECT2Chapter 2: Literature review:Previous study on the topic:In the study Koon (2013), explained the situation that the males and femalesencountered at several instances that shows their psychological behaviour to react on aparticular situation. Many variables have been found to act as a motivator or de-motivator fora person that help to react in a particular situation.

These reasons can be counted as bullying,racism, albinism, harassment on the street and other related causes. In order to overcome thesituation, it was recommended that the bystanders should be given the proper education ontheir roles and responsibilities to protect and think of the safety of a victim if they getconfronted with one such incident (Saunders, 2016).

The women or the females have a greater chance of getting bullied but incase if a male person interrupt the situation, his action will be better considered and that thereremained the chances that the situation can be stabilised and the victim can be rescued from
