Read the passage given below and answer the question given below: Reena is about to participate in a music contest. She is very talented, yet she is feeling very nervous about the event. Still, she performed so well in front of an audience. As early as 1897, Norman Triplett observed that individuals show better performance in the presence of others than when they are performing the same task alone. For instance, cyclists racing with each other perform better than when they cycle alone. With time more details came to be known about this phenomenon. Better performance in the presence of others is because the person gets high, which makes the person react in a more intense manner. The arousal is because the person feels she or he is being evaluated.. The person will be praised if the performance is good (reward), or criticised if it is bad (punishment). We wish to get praise and avoid criticism, therefore we try to perform well and avoid mistakes. If the others present are also performing the same task, the person will try his best to show teamwork. In this situation, there is social comparison and competition. Once again, when the task is simple or a familiar one, performance is better under co-action than when the person is alone. In short, task performance can be facilitated and improved or inhibited and worsened by the presence of others. Many other kinds of social influence have been noticed. For example, if we are working together in a group, the larger the group, the less effort each member puts in.

If the group is larger and the member of the group puts less effort into the task. Here which phenomenon will be from the options?

Diffusion of responsibility Social inhibition Social inhibition Social loafing

Social loafing

If we are working together in a group, the larger the group, the less effort each member puts in. This phenomenon is called social loafing,
