Individual and dyadic rope turning as a window into social coordination
2018, Human Movement ScienceCitation Excerpt :Regardless, at the same time, we found a significant, positive correlation between the partners’ detuning and the change in frequency in the dyadic condition relative to the individual condition, indicating that in the dyadic condition participants were affected by their partner’s spontaneous frequency. This frequency attraction mimics the magnet-effect identified by von Holst (1908/1962) stipulating that two oscillators tend to pull each other to their preferred individual frequencies (see also Schmidt & O’Brien, 1997; Schmidt & Turvey, 1989), even though the dyads did not actually settle on a ‘middle ground’. In combination, these findings suggest that the frequency attraction between two rhythmically moving units is generic, but that the task constraints dictate whether their coupled frequency will fall in between the individual ones or not.
