Ences between each MedChemExpress 221244-14-0 DCC 2618 condition [F(2,63) = 0.31, p < 0.10, 2 = 0.01, n.s.]. This means that the effect of the presence p of an observer during the primary task did not promote task performance relative to that of the combination of the presence of others and arousal enhancement as an aftereffect. In other words, the aftereffect itself was already strong enough to facilitate task performance, and there might be no room for the effect of the presence of an observer during conducting task to improve task performance.perception of the presence of others facilitates the performance of an addition task, even when the perception of others itself does not produce arousal enhancement. The results of the main experiment indicated that the combination of arousal enhancement and perception of others induced the strongest facilitation as an aftereffect, especially in people with low skill in the addition task in the baseline phase. In supplementary experiment, we examined whether the presence of an observer during the addition task facilitates task performance and whether the effect of the combination of the presence of others and arousal enhancement is stable even when an observer is present during the addition task. The results showed that the presence of others during the task is enough on its own to produce facilitation of task performance, regardless of the manipulation of their presence and arousal enhancement as an aftereffect.Manipulation Assessment in Arousal LevelThe results indicate that the manipulation of arousal enhancement in the main and supplementary experiments was appropriate. First, the exercise condition and observed-with-exercise condition were significantly different from any other condition, whereas the observed condition and greeting condition were not significantly different from the control condition in the main experiment. In addition, the OE + O condition in the supplementary experiment was significantly different from the control condition, whereas the O + O condition was not. This means that the arousal level was higher in both the exercise and observed-with-exercise conditions than in the other conditions. Second, we conducted an additional analysis of the SBP and HR and found that both of them were higher after the manipulation than in the baseline phase and at the end of the experiment only for those two conditions. This means that arousal levels in those conditions were higher after manipulation than those at the baseline.Expanding Zajonc's Drive TheoryThe results partially support our hypothesis that the performance of the addition task in the observed-with-exercise condition would be higher than in any other condition. The results of the main experiment showed that only the observed-with-exercise condition was significantly different from the control condition in task performance, whereas the differences in task performance between other conditions and the control condition were not significant. These findings indicate that the perception of the presence of others was not sufficient to elevate the arousal level compared with the control condition or to facilitate the performance of the task even when a stranger greeted the participant. In addition, they reveal that exogenous manipulation of the arousal level by the stepping exercise was insufficient for facilitating task performance, though it was sufficient for enhancing the arousal level. On the other hand, the combination of the presence of another individual and.Ences between each condition [F(2,63) = 0.31, p < 0.10, 2 = 0.01, n.s.].
