In this video I discuss how the presence of others can influence performance. I begin with social facilitation, studied by Norman Triplett in 1898, which suggests that the additional arousal caused by the presence of others can improve performance on simple or well-learned tasks. I also discuss social loafing, which refers to the reduction of individual efforts when people are working in a group and when individual efforts are difficult to discern.
