Explanation:

Sometimes a person looks to others to determine whether help needs to be offered in an ambiguous situation. When this person incorrectly concludes that no help is necessary, this is called pluralistic ignorance.

Pluralistic ignorance in social psychology is a situation in which a majority of group members privately reject a norm, but go along with it because they assume, incorrectly, that most others accept it. A scenario would be, if a group of five men sees a man beating up a woman, each one of them may want to help out but will not because no one else is showing concern, they incorrectly assume that the rest individuals in the group accept the situation as normal.
