Interpersonal physiological synchrony is associated with first person and third person subjective assessments of excitement during cooperative joint tasks
Abstract Interpersonal physiological synchrony has been shown to play important roles in social activities. While most studies have shed light on the effects of physiological synchrony on recognition of the group state, such as cohesion or togetherness, the effect of physiological synchrony on the r...
