Published in: Topics in Cognitive Science, Volume 10, Issue 1, 80-94 Abstract “When two people move in synchrony, they become more social. Yet it is not clear how this effect scales up to larger numbers of people. Does a group need to move in unison to affiliate, in what we term unitary synchrony; or does affiliation arise from distributed coordination, patterns […]

Published in: Topics in Cognitive Science, Volume 10, Issue 1, 36-54 Abstract “The present paper describes a joint action paradigm in which individuals or pairs utilized two computer keys to keep a dot stimulus moving inside a larger rectangle. Members of a pair could neither see nor hear each other. This paradigm allowed us to combine

Published in: Topics in Cognitive Science, Volume 10, Issue 1, 6-17 Abstract “The role of coordination in cognitive science has been on the rise in recent years, in terms of coordination among neurons, coordination among sensory and motor systems, and coordination among individuals. Research has shown that coordination patterns corresponding to cognitive activities depend on the

Published in: Topics in Cognitive Science, Volume 10, Issue 1, 18-35 Abstract “Sense of agency can be defined as the self‐awareness of bodily movement, whereas extended agency as the self‐awareness of affecting, through movement, events concomitant with movement. As a distinctive manifestation of agency, we review Spizzo’s effect. This effect arises when agents coordinate their rhythmic movements with visual
Published in: Topics in Cognitive Science, Volume 10, Issue 1, 120-132 Abstract “Long‐range correlations are often manifested in the form of 1/fβ noise in a series of repeated measurements of the same neural or behavioral variable. Recent work has demonstrated that the magnitude and nature of these long‐range correlations reliably capture individual differences and variation in task
