Reaction in the presence of other people is a term of the social psychology. Henk Wilke and Arjaan Wit define possible basic responses of the individuals and responses of the individuals in the presence of other people.
- Dominant responses - response of a person’s repertoire responses, especially well-learned or instinctive reaction.
- Non-dominant responses - new, complex or untested responses that an individual had not or rarely used
- Social facilitation - a higher incidence of the predominant responses due to the presence of others
- Social inhibition - a lower incidence of non-dominant responses due to the presence of others
- Evaluation apprehension - a stressful situation of a man whose behavior is observed by others; it can cause the anxiety and lead to poor performance or to the performance improvement, depending on how much an individual the performance knows and how much he practiced it
- Attention conflict - a conflict between paying attention on the task, and paying attention to other persons present
