Justin sees a blind person in need of help crossing a busy intersection. If Justin does not feel empathy for the blind person, under what circumstances (according to Batson’s empathy-altruism hypothesis) would Justin help?

Justin would only help is the rewards outweigh the costs of helping.

Explanation:

Batson’s empathy-altruism hypothesis states that if an individual feels empathy for someone else that needs help then that individual will help, regardless of what they can obtain as a reward. The opposite applies to an individual that does not feel empathy. Therefore in this situation Justin would only help is the rewards outweigh the costs of helping.
