Social Impact Theory
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper assessing Bibb Latane's 1981 social impact theory and what became of it. There are many theories from the past that resurface from time to time dressed in other terms and other names, and updated to meet current needs. This appears to be the case with social impact theory. Though it is not often discussed in current literature by the name that Latané gave it a quarter century ago, it nonetheless is still with us, particularly in business literature.

Social Loafing
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. The findings provided by Latane et al's Many Hands Make Light the Work: The Causes & Consequences of Social Loafing and Individual Differences in Social Loafing: Need for Cognitive as a Motivator in Collective Performance by Smith et al enable people to understand how their collective performance in a group activity is not always more powerful or valuable than the efforts exerted by each individual. Both articles are instrumental in providing a significantly better realization of social loafing and how it reflects the extent to which an individual's efforts are wholly dependent upon motivation and accountability. No bibliography.
