The article discusses how synchronization of action with each other provide powerful social signals. Topics discussed include how people coordinate their behaviour in various ways automatically and often unintentionally, formation of strong social bonds through intentional synchronous activities, underlying mechanisms of interpersonal synchrony through establishing close social contacts and impact of synchronous activities as an important social function.
