Autonomic synchrony plays an important role in work team performance where coordinated actions are required on the part of the team members. The present study examined the connection between nine psychological variables that represent types of elasticity-rigidity, which are closely related to adaptability and autonomic synchrony, within teams playing a computer game that involved dynamic decision making. Elasticity-rigidity variables were first identified as part of the dynamics that transpire between workload and performance. They are used here to determine why some individuals within teams synchronize with teammates more strongly than others. The driver-empath model of group synchrony produces a single metric of synchrony (SE) within a team of three or more members. Driver scores, which are produced from the algorithm, indicate each person's total influence on the other group members. Empath scores, which are also produced from the SE algorithm, indicate a person's total receptivity to all other group members. It was found that coping flexibility, monitoring, emotional intelligence, and solving anagrams significantly predicted empath scores in the earlier part of the session. Anxiety and monitoring significantly predicted empath scores in the later part of the session. There were no significant correlations between driver scores and elasticity-rigidity variables.
自主同步在需要团队成员协调行动的工作团队绩效中起着重要作用。本研究考察了在玩涉及动态决策的电脑游戏的团队中，代表弹性-刚性类型的九个心理变量之间的联系，这些变量与适应性和自主同步密切相关。弹性-刚性变量最初被确定为在工作量和绩效之间发生的动态的一部分。它们在这里被用来确定为什么团队中的一些人比其他人更能与队友同步。团队同步的驱动-共情模型为三个或更多成员的团队生成一个单一的同步度量（SE）。由算法产生的驾驶员分数表示每个人对其他小组成员的总影响。也由 SE 算法生成的共情分数表示一个人对所有其他小组成员的总接受程度。研究发现，应对灵活性、监控、情绪智力和解字谜在会话的早期阶段显著预测了共情分数。焦虑和监控在会话的后期阶段显著预测了共情分数。驾驶员分数与弹性-刚性变量之间没有显著相关性。
