Answer and Explanation:

Latané and Darley made a experiment that stated that in any emergency situation,the people usually tend to first depend on other for the help or take any action. Thus according to that ,John is likely to look around the room towards other people and will most probably follow the cue that is the actions taken by other members will be followed by John as well.
