Behavioral And Brain Dynamics Of Team Coordination Part Ii: Neurobehavioral Performance

In this study, pairs of subjects performed a team-intensive task with the shared goal of clearing a virtual room from threats. The neurobehavioral dynamics of both subjects was analyzed to identify signatures of efficient team work. An ecologically valid task of room clearing was designed and a novel analysis framework was developed to address the challenge of understanding complex, continuous social processes at both behavioral and brain levels. A companion paper detailed the design of the neurobehavioral task and its associated dynamical analysis framework. In this paper, we present candidate neuromarkers for efficient room clearing and discuss key theoretical issues relating to successful team coordination.
