Actors change their movement strategies to complement a coactor's movements when performing cooperative tasks. To further investigate this topic, the authors designed a pegboard task whereby a participant-confederate pair worked together to move a peg from one side of the board to the other. The authors examined how the experience of working with a helpful confederate versus less helpful confederate influenced the participant's movement behavior. Results provide evidence that participants change their movement behaviors in response to the actions of the confederate. Here the human capacity to act in such a manner exemplifies an individual's ability to utilize his or her own action system to understand others and interact to complete joint action tasks. Individuals appear to adapt their behavior to their experiences, and thus may be helpful in some contexts and less helpful in others.
在执行合作任务时，参与者会改变他们的运动策略以配合合作者的动作。为了进一步研究这个课题，作者设计了一个钉板任务，即参与者与一名同谋者合作，将一个钉子从板子的一侧移到另一侧。作者研究了与一个乐于助人的同谋者和一个不太乐于助人的同谋者合作的经历如何影响参与者的运动行为。结果表明，参与者会根据同谋者的行为改变自己的运动行为。在这里，人类以这种方式行动的能力体现了个人利用自己的行动系统来理解他人并进行互动以完成联合行动任务的能力。个体似乎会根据自己的经历调整行为，因此在某些情况下可能有帮助，而在其他情况下则帮助较小。
