The scenario of Mario's topic selection illustrates the influence of commitment because his experience as an English tutor for immigrants shows a personal connection and dedication to the topic, indicating a strong commitment to exploring and sharing information about it. This personal commitment likely influenced his decision to choose this topic over others.
