Location: regent park
I placed small colored flags with the slogan (there is the rubbish) next to the rubbish. Compared to the first time, someone would stop to see what the flag said, but no one picked it up. The children are more likely to spot the flags than the adults.
In addition: During the experiment, a child fell down on his scooter in front of me. I helped him up and asked him where his parents were, but he was a bit resistant. In the process, no one helped him except me and my friends, but an older man gave me a thumbs up when I wiped this kid’s nose bleed.
Reminds me of the time I was on a bus on the Isle of Wight and there was an old lady waiting at the stop, sitting on the stone steps, carrying heavy luggage. The bus was stopped for about 5 or 6 minutes, but she was probably sitting for a long time so she was moving a bit slowly. And I got off the bus and helped her up and took her luggage onto the bus. Then I heard her say a lot of things to thank me. Later, I asked my friend why no one was willing to help her when there were so many people sitting in the car. She said that maybe they thought the most respectful thing to do for the elderly was not to specialize her and treat her like a normal person. But she thanked me, which showed that she was also willing to accept help.
I think this moral dimension of helping others falls into the category of relationships between members of a community within social cohesion. (?Off-topic.)This seems to have more to do with society attitudes, Members of the society have a tendency to overlook events that do not concern them directly, and it is against this indifference that one has to fight, as an immoral ambiance has a tendency to penetrate to all domains thus affecting all members of society.
