Social Loafing

This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.

State

Social loafing is the reduction of individual effort when working in a group where contributions are not identifiable.

Show

Individual pulling force on a rope drops as more people join the team.

Watch for

Loafing disappears when individual contributions are measurable. Identifiability is the variable.
