Explanation:

The Bystander Apathy is a psychological phenomenon in which bystanders or observers are less likely to help if there are other people around, this occurs because individuals do not feel responsible for helping or expect someone else to take the lead. Despite this, the bystander effect is reduced if there are fewer bystanders because in this case, it is more likely someone feels responsible and decides to help.
