The "Bystander Effect"
我们知道，在目睹潜在的不当性行为时，有多种因素会影响是否干预的决定. However, 电子游戏正规平台表明，最重要的预测因素是事件发生时在场的其他人的数量, a phenomenon known as the ‘Bystander Effect’. Learn more about the Bystander Effect by watching this video. 我们的目标是通过传播对这一现象的认识，并为学生提供有效的干预策略，来减少旁观者效应.

Techniques for Intervention
希望上一集视频让你们了解了旁观者站出来说话的重要性! Here are some suggestions on how to intervene. 我们鼓励你以一种对你来说安全舒适的方式进行干预.
如果你看到一个朋友或陌生人处于一种不太正常的情况下，你可以:
Distract: Redirect the focus elsewhere. At a party for example, you could spill a drink, put on a popular song, or ask someone to take a picture.
Separate: Separate the people involved. You could ask someone to dance, ask your friend to come with you to the bathroom, or invite them to grab late night food.
Recruit: Ask others for help. 你可以向自己的朋友或与此事有关的人的朋友寻求帮助. 如果你真的不了解参与其中的人，这一点尤其有用. 根据具体情况，你可能还需要聘请专业人士.
Use “I” statements: When using “I” statements, you want to state your feelings, name the behavior, and state how you want the person to respond. 这侧重于你的感受，而不是批评别人.
