John M. Darley (born April 3, 1938) is Dorman T. Warren Professor of Psychology and Public Affairs, Emeritus at Princeton University.[1] He is the son of noted professor of psychology, John G. Darley (1910-1990).[2] He has a Ph.D. from Harvard University in Social Relations.[3]
Darley is best known, in collaboration with Bibb Latané, for theories which explore why people do not always intervene (i.e. offer aid) at the scene of an emergency, a research interest largely stemming from the tragic case of Kitty Genovese, the New Yorker who was murdered in a New York suburb in March 1964 in the presence of 38 witnesses.[4]
