چکیده
ABSTRACT Research conducted in the United States has found . that people exert more effort when they perfarm a task individually than when they do so in a group. This phenomenon has been labeled social loafing. To examine the transcultural generality of social ' loafing, 20 male anck2.0 female Chinese,school children in Taiwan were selected from grades 2, 3, 6, and/9. They were asked to shout and cla0 their hands as loudly as possible alone and in pairs. Measures of sound'production revealed social loafing in all but third grade . males, suggesting, in light of other cross-cultural findings, that .pocial loafing may be a transcultural phenomenon. Future research using other kinds of group task situations may find exceptions to this transcultural generality in some cultures. (Author/JAC)
