{ "pk": 25665, "title": "Investigating Strategy Discovery and Coordination in a Novel Virtual Sheep\nHerding Game among Dyads", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "Previous research investigating the dynamical processes\nsupporting coordinated joint action has typically used nongoal-\ndirected tasks. The present study expands on this\nresearch by investigating the coordination that emerges\namong pairs in a complex, goal-directed task of herding\nvirtual sheep to the center of a field. The results revealed that\nthe majority of pairs converged on the same stable movement\ncoordination strategy in order to complete the task. This\nstrategy involved pairs moving in an in-phase or anti-phase\noscillatory pattern around the sheep. By adopting this strategy\npairs formed an interpersonal synergy. Interestingly, the\nstrength of this synergy was modulated by the number of\nsheep being herded. More specifically, more dimensional\ncompression was observed among pairs when herding the 7-\nsheep compared to herding 3 or 5 sheep. The implications of\nthese results for understanding how task difficulty and\nmutually defined environmental co-regulation influenced the\nbehavioral dynamics of coordinated joint-action are\ndiscussed.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "joint action; interpersonal synergies;\ncoordination; strategy formation" } ], "section": "Papers", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/7bn4m5nw", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Patrick", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Nalepka", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Cincinnati", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Christopher", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Riehm", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Cincinnati", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Carl", "middle_name": "Bou", "last_name": "Mansour", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Carleton University", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Anthony", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Chemero", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Cincinnati", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Michael", "middle_name": "J", "last_name": "Richardson", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Cincinnati", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2015-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/25665/galley/15289/download/" } ] }
