### Ringelmann effect

[Ringelmann effect on Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ringelmann_effect)

The Ringelmann effect is the tendency of an individual to become increasingly inefficient as more and more people are involved in a task. In other words, as more individuals are added to a team, the more the average individual performance decreases. Multiple causes are believed to be at work, including social loafing and loss of coordination.
