Highlights
If you have visited a metropolitan area, you have likely been present for an incident that could be considered an emergency
Much of this research has been built upon the bystander intervention model (BIM) proposed by Lataneand Darley (1970) which situates the cognitive processes driving decisions to intervene in ambiguous emergencies within an unpredictable social environment
We began this chapter with hypothetical scenarios that would likely be relevant to anyone who has traveled for work or leisure
