When individual performance is being monitored, people tend to be more motivated to perform well and are less likely to engage in social loafing. This is because they know that their individual contributions are being evaluated and that they will be held accountable for their output. In contrast, if the group or task is less important to the person, they may feel less invested in the outcome and be more likely to slack off. And while fatigue can also contribute to decreased motivation and effort, it is not necessarily the best answer as it does not address the issue of group dynamics that contribute to social loafing.
