Abstract

This research is focused on reducing social loafing. Peer evaluation is considered as one of an effective part in reducing social loafing in group-based tasks. Each member involved must be cautious about the contributions of other individuals who also participated in the same group. We conducted a study of 80 students attending lecturing in Metrology Department. They are divided into two groups: the experimental group, and the control group.Each group will be assigned a task by the lecturer. Both the experimental and the control group must submit their task by the following week. In addition to the experimental group, the students are also required to complete the peer evaluation. The peer evaluation results were then presented to the experimental group. The effectiveness of interventions can be seen by the decreasing of the score in Social Loafing Tendency in the experimental group.Applications of peer evaluation instrument could be the one strategy to reduce social loafing among students.
