Answer:

This phenomenon is called social facilitation.

Explanation:

Social facilitation refers to one's <em>tendency to </em><em>improve</em> his/her performance <em>when other individuals are present</em>. When the individual is alone, he/she has certain performance but having other individuals around tends to make this individual want to improve.

In this case, Cody is riding the bike at a leisurely pace but as soon as the gym gets less empty, she <em>improves her performance by the sheer presence of others. </em>

Explanation:

The expectancy theory was developed by J.B. Rotter to explain why people behave the way they do. The theory suggests people take certain actions(behaviour) based on the outcome and value of that behaviour which has been informed by past experiences and learning.

Rotter classified people into two types: internals and externals. Internals according to Rotter are individuals who believe that happenings are a result of their own direct efforts. Externals, on the other hand believe things happen by such things as luck and cannot be controlled by them.
