【 摘 要 】

In recent years, psychological research has shown a growing interest in the study of human social interaction. This has led researchers to develop new paradigms and to formulate new theories about how people adjust minds and bodies when interacting with each other (Schilbach et al., 2013; Gallotti et al., 2017). One intriguing question that arises when dealing with social interactions concerns what information actors share about each other when involved in a joint action. One of the most influential theories in this field states that, given the fundamental social nature of joint actions, people have the tendency to represent and map both one's own and others' task demands (Sebanz et al., 2003, 2005). However, this view has recently been challenged by proponents of the “referential coding account” who have criticized the apparent nonsocial nature of the tasks and methodologies used to formulate and support the co-representation theory (Dolk et al., 2011, 2014).
