Introduction Our theoretical framework: coordination dynamics (Kelso, 1995) ->principle of self- organization in mutually coupled systems. Our questions: - Behavioral change elicited by viewing the other subject's behavior - Corresponding changes in brain dynamics - Creation of social networks: “assemblies of neurons between-brain coalesced into mutually- constrained oscillatory activity” We study the spontaneous motor coordination of two subjects exposed to the view of each other while performing rhythmical finger movement. Mirror-neurons in monkeys (Di Pellegrino et al., 1992) and homologous structures in humans (Grèzes et al., 2003) are active both during execution of a movement and observation of a conspecific performing the same movement. Observation of others’ movements produces embodiment (Rizzolatti et al., 2002) which appears to be related to understanding other’s intentions by simulation (Blakemore & Decety, 2001). Hence, perception/action coupling is a privileged entry-point for scientifically tackling the problem of neurobiological correlates of social interactions.

method The vision of each other is controlled by a fast-switching (1.2ms) LCD screen, turning transparent at t=20s and back to opaque at t=40s Pairs of subjects (n=16, p=8) perform regular continuous finger movements at a comfortable pace during one minute trials. Their simultaneous EEG (1000 Hz, 1 ½ inch inter-electrode distance, 61channels) is acquired with a DUAL-EEG system Their finger movement is collected with two light-axis goniometers t=20-40st=40-60st=0-20s They are instructed to adopt the most comfortable pace, at any time during the trial.

Behavioral profile Episodic transitions to a coupled behavior Only inphase stable Antiphase and inphase stable Effect of the initial phase

Behavioral profile converging changes in frequency of movement: 71% of the trials transient phase-locking: 33% complete state of phase-locking: 25% “Social neglect”Transient phase-locking Fully synchronized inphase Fully synchronized antiphase Fully synchronized with continuation Changes in frequency and phase

Behavioral profile Definition of roles I: changes in frequency One subject changes more; here “red” is the leader (driver), “blue” the follower Both subject change equally None of the subjects changes. Roles are not defined.

81% of the subjects show some decrease in the 8-20Hz frequency bands during visual contact. 19% of the subjects don’t. Changes in the EEG during visual contact ? Brain dynamics

The change in the average spectrum does not reflect a stationary process, but a rarefaction of bursts

Brain dynamics anterior posterior Left right Maximal difference (during-before) over parietal electrodes. Some sinusoidal waves, some triangular (see fig.). Topography central, parietal or occipital. Topology and morphology of these oscillations ?

Brain dynamics Are the left and right hemispheres differentially affected ? Hypothesis: performance of finger movement recruits the contralateral hemisphere. Observation of the other’s movement counterbalances to the ipsilateral hemisphere? -> Reduced asymmetry in two subjects (13%), and increase in two subjects (13%).

Brain dynamics Is coherence between-brain increased during vision ? Idiosyncrasic patterns, for example, this frontal (driver) to parietal (follower) network

During visual contact, the amplitude was decreased in the band [8-20Hz]. Owing to their morphology and topography, several oscillatory mechanisms can be considered including alpha (sustained attention to the partner), mu (increased movement preparation; recruitment of the mirror-neuron system, MNS), and beta (increased demand on motor processing). We explored the hypothesis of a reduced hemispheric asymmetry during perception of the other’s movement (recruitment of the trans-hemispheric MNS system). Such a pattern of result was met in only 13% of the present sample. We conclude that changes in hemipsheric asymmetry is not a generalized feature of mirror-neuron recruitment during concurrent self-execution and other- observation, but may underlie some roles during social coordination. We also identified some idiosyncrasic patterns of between-brain coupling. These patterns await a more in-depth understanding of the roles of each individual within the pair. Discussion

We demonstrated that in a social context, the motor behavior of subjects changes, expressing a coupling between them. Those behavioral changes carry the hallmarks of coordination dynamics: Alteration of intrinsic frequency Phase-locking with preferential coordination modes inphase and antiphase. The brain dynamics exhibited some changes during visual contact as well. One pervasive change was a suppression of alpha and mu/low-beta oscillations. These results suggest the importance of attentional (Mulholland, 1969) and mirror-neuron factors (Fadiga et al, 2005) in social coordination. The variability in oscillatory changes (frequency, topography, asymmetry) probably reflect several strategies and roles rather than a generalized activation of the MNS by observation. conclusion
