Abstract

Studies indicate that social status influences people’s social perceptions. Less information is available about whether induced social status influences dyadic coordination during motor interactions. To explore this issue, we designed a study in which two confederates obtained high or low competence-based status by playing a game together with the participant, while the participant always occupied the middle position of the hierarchy. Following this status-inducing phase, participants were engaged in a joint grasping task with the high- and low-status confederates in different sessions while behavioural (i.e., interpersonal asynchrony and movement start time) indexes were measured. Participants’ performance in the task (i.e., level of interpersonal asynchrony) when interacting with the low-status partner was modulated by their preference for him. The lower participants’ preference for a low- relative to a high-status confederate, the worse participants’ performance when interacting with the low-status confederate. Our results show that participants’ performance during motor interactions changes according to the social status of the interaction partner.

  • The joint grasping task taps into multiple motor and cognitive aspects of joint action, including behavioral synchrony, action prediction, reciprocal monitoring, and mutual adjustment.

    “The joint grasping task (Boukarras et al. 2021; Candidi et al. 2015; Era et al. 2018, 2020, 2023; Moreau et al. 2020; Sacheli et al. 2012) taps into multiple motor and cognitive aspects of joint action, including behavioral synchrony, action prediction, reciprocal monitoring, and mutual adjustment.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
