When considering Darley and Batson's (1973) study on the bystander effect, we need to evaluate how situational cues influence helping.
Option A: Think about the Good Samaritan parable. While this moral lesson could theoretically prime prosocial thinking, the original research focused on time pressure rather than content prompts. Merely recalling a parable doesn't directly map onto the specific experimental manipulation of helping behavior in the study.
Option B: Go to seminary school. This is not a variable examined in the study and has no empirical basis for increasing helping in this context; it misrepresents the experimental factors and expectations about religious training affecting helping behavior under pressure.
Option C: Make them feel like they were in a hurry. This opposite cue would be expected to reduce helping, since increased time pressure is known to inhibit helping behavior in the classic bystander paradigm used by Darley and Batson.
Option D: Make them feel like they weren’t in a hurry, and had ample time. This aligns with the study's findings: reducing perceived urgency and providing ample time increases the likelihood of helping, as people have more opportunity to notice the situation and decide to intervene.
