Three frameworks have been proposed to explain interpersonal synchronization, but regardless of the task and nature of information, synchronization is primarily driven by discrete mutual adaptation. These results question the relevance of the coordination dynamics perspective in interpersonal coordination.
Three frameworks have been proposed to account for interpersonal synchronization: The information processing approach argues that synchronization is achieved by mutual adaptation, the coordination dynamics perspective supposes a continuous coupling between systems, and complexity matching suggests a global, multi-scale interaction. We hypothesized that the relevancy of these models was related to the nature of the performed tasks. 10 dyads performed synchronized tapping and synchronized forearm oscillations, in two conditions:full(participants had full information about their partner), anddigital(information was limited to discrete auditory signals). Results shows that whatever the task and the available information, synchronization was dominated by a discrete mutual adaptation. These results question the relevancy of the coordination dynamics perspective in interpersonal coordination.
