DESCRIPTION:We explore the role of timing in situations where a human user
  and semi-autonomous software can each initiate actions\, building on cogn
 itive theories of rhythmic expectation and mutual temporal adaptation duri
 ng conversation. Two controlled experiments demonstrate that adjustments t
 o the rhythm of back-and-forth interaction have significant effects on per
 ceived agency\, task performance and stress. Conclusions include design gu
 idance that establishing a predictable rhythm of interaction is likely to 
 be beneficial for mixed initiative systems.
