dc.description.abstract | Theorists have suggested that social loafing is an instance of learned helplessness. We argue that this explanation is unwarranted in the absence of evidence that social loafing is generalized from one situation to another. We report an experiment consistent with our argument. College students working in a group performed more poorly at a word-generating task than subjects working by themselves, but this social loafing was not associated with subsequent problem-solving difficulties or with sad affect. | en_US |
