• Researchers Stephen Garcia and Avishalom Tor did studies that show people are more likely to do well when competing against a smaller group rather than a larger group. They called it the N effect and theorize that the more people in a competition there are, the less motivated one was to do well because it's harder to assess the outcome. They know they have a better chance of winning in a group of 10 then they would in a group of 100.
