Answer to Question 1

Answer: Students should define social facilitation and differentiate between mastered and unmastered tasks. In addition, they should mention the role of apprehension evaluation in strengthening dominant responses.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Deindividuation is the process of losing one's sense of personal identity, which makes it easier to behave in ways inconsistent with one's normal values. The two ways are masking of individual identity and distracting persons from their individual selves and personal values. Two simple ways to reindividuate group members are to insure that they are individually identifiable, such as by requiring name tags, or to require that they view themselves in the mirror.
