Why does electronegativity decrease as we go up a group in the periodic table?

1. Shielding Effect - There are fewer core electrons to shield the attractive force of the nucleus from the valence electrons.

or

2. There are fewer energy levels and the valence electrons are closer to the attractive force of the nucleus.
