{"pk":27854,"title":"Interpersonal Coordination of Perception and Memory in Real-Time Online Social Experiments","subtitle":null,"abstract":"The quiet hum of interpersonal coordination that runs through-out social communication and interaction shows how individu-als can subtly influence one another’s behaviors, thoughts, andemotions over time. While the majority of research on co-ordination studies face-to-face interaction, recent advances incrowdsourcing afford the opportunity to conduct large-scale,real-time social interaction experiments. We take advantageof these tools to explore interpersonal coordination in a “min-imally interactive context,” distilling the richness of naturalcommunication into a tightly controlled setting to explore howpeople become coupled in their perceptual and memory sys-tems while performing a task together. Consistent with previ-ous work on postural sway and gaze, we found that individualsbecome coupled to one another’s cognitive processes withoutneeding to be co-located or fully interactive with their partner;interestingly, although participants had no information abouttheir partner and no means of direct communication, we alsofound hints that social forces can shape minimally interactivecontexts, similar to effects observed in face-to-face interaction.","language":"eng","license":{"name":"","short_name":"","text":null,"url":""},"keywords":[{"word":"interpersonal coordination"},{"word":"Human Communication"},{"word":"Online experiments"},{"word":"Social Interaction"}],"section":"Publication-based-Talks","is_remote":true,"remote_url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/49k0v19w","frozenauthors":[{"first_name":"Alexandra","middle_name":"","last_name":"Paxton","name_suffix":"","institution":"UC Berkley","department":""},{"first_name":"Thomas","middle_name":"J.H.","last_name":"Morgan","name_suffix":"","institution":"Arizona State","department":""},{"first_name":"Jordan","middle_name":"W","last_name":"Suchow","name_suffix":"","institution":"UC Berkley","department":""},{"first_name":"Thomas","middle_name":"L","last_name":"Griffiths","name_suffix":"","institution":"UC Berkley","department":""}],"date_submitted":null,"date_accepted":null,"date_published":"2018-01-01T18:00:00Z","render_galley":null,"galleys":[{"label":"PDF","type":"pdf","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/27854/galley/17492/download/"}]}
