Psychology and Aging, 2005
This study explores the hypothesis that age-related declines in inhibitory ability are associated with increases in socially inappropriate behavior. Consistent with this hypothesis, older participants were less likely than younger participants to differentiate between public and private settings when inquiring about potentially embarrassing issues ...

Social Inhibition

2016
Social inhibition is the tendency for behaviors that are exhibited when one is alone to be minimized in the presence of others. Despite the long tradition of research investigating the effects of social presence on behavior, research on social inhibition does not constitute a cohesive literature.

REPRESSION OF SEXUAL ASSOCIATIONS: COGNITIVE INHIBITION, FAMILIARITY, OR SOCIAL INHIBITION?

Social Behavior and Personality: an international journal, 1976
Previous research on the Repression-Sensitization (R-S) Scale found that repressors gave fewer sexual associations than sensitizers on a double entendre word association task. That difference, however, may have been due either to differential familiarity, or external, social inhibition, rather than to internal, cognitive defense processes.

Socially Inhibited Individuals Show Heightened DTH Response during Intense Social Engagement

Brain, Behavior, and Immunity, 1999

This finding was replicated in both a laboratory study and a field setting.

Group remembering: Does social loafing underlie collaborative inhibition?

Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2000
When people collaborate to recall information, they experience collaborative inhibition, a deficit in recall relative to nominal groups (the pooled, nonredundant recall of individuals working alone). That is, people recalling in groups do not perform up to their potential. Collaborative inhibition may be due to retrieval interference (e.g., B.
