Need an idea for Psychology class?

The assignment is to set up a situation that tempts the public and see how they react. For example, put out a red button with a sign that says "push for drama" and see who pushes it. Or leave a 50 dollar bill on the ground and see if someone keeps it or turns it in. Those sorts of things...I need an idea! And preferably something I can do during school.. Please and thank u

    There is a tv program and it's called "What would you do?". They use many different scenarios to gauge the reaction of onlookers.

    Why don't you steal one of their ideas? Get some friends and set up a bullying situation. You can see how many people will step in and help the bullied person. There may be people who join in and start to bully. It could have some interesting outcomes.

    Good luck with your project.
