Aim & Background

This course will cover theories and empirical research on joint action, addressing humans' exceptional ability to act together and achieve joint goals. The focus will be on how research in our lab relates to theories of shared intentionality, communication, and action. Topics include the role of thinking and planning ahead as well as basic perceptual and motor processes that allow people to perform highly coordinated actions such as playing a piano duet together. The course will include demonstrations to provide an overview of different research methods that are used in our lab. Towards the end of the course, each course participant will present an idea for an experimental study addressing an open question in joint action research.
