Social facilitation occurs when being observed increases evaluation concerns, leading to improved performance on simple or well-practiced tasks but worsened performance on complex or new tasks. Social loafing occurs when being lost in a crowd decreases evaluation concerns, leading to reduced motivation and effort on a task when individuals feel that their contributions are unidentifiable or dispensable. Groupthink occurs when members of a group prioritize consensus and conformity over critical thinking and independent judgment, often leading to flawed decision-making. Group polarization occurs when group discussion leads individuals to adopt more extreme or polarized positions than their initial inclinations or preferences.
