DESCRIPTION:Humans are able to perform a wide range of joint actions\, fro
 m carrying heavy objects together to having conversations. What are the me
 chanisms enabling joint action? This talk will provide an overview of expe
 rimental research that has begun to unravel the behavioural\, cognitive\, 
 and neural processes supporting joint action planning and coordination. Wh
 ile much of this research has focused on egalitarian dyadic joint actions\
 , new findings also shed light on role and task distributions in more comp
 lex group contexts. It will be discussed what we can learn from joint acti
 on research for increasing affiliation and cooperation\, for improving the
  design of collaborative robots\, and for enhancing our understanding of a
 esthetic experiences during observation of joint performances.
