“…This has turned out to be particularly useful, because, according to dynamical systems theory, in order to claim that two (or more) systems give rise to an overall extended (viz., coupled) system, what is required is the existence of non-linear relations that arise out of mutual interactions between the contributing parts (Chemero 2009, Froese et al 2013, Theiner et al 2010, Tollefsen & Dale 2011, Palermos 2014b. Accordingly, on the basis of dynamical systems theory, we can claim that in order to have an extended cognitive system, all we need is that the internal and external parts interact mutually with each other.…”

Recent thinking within philosophy of mind about the ways cognition can extend (e.g. Clark 2011; Clark & Chalmers 1998; Wilson 2000Wilson , 2004Menary 2006) has yet to be integrated with philosophical theories of emotion, which give cognition a central role. We carve out new ground at the intersection of these areas, and in doing so, defend what we call the extended emotion thesis: i.e., the claim that some emotions can extend beyond skin and skull to parts of the external world.

“…Preliminary studies by Paxton and Dale seem to confirm the prediction (Paxton & Dale, submitted for publication). Accordingly, we argue that the study of collective minds can and indeed should be articulated with the empirical findings from the study of joint action (Galantucci, 2009;Hasson et al, 2012;Obhi & Sebanz, 2011;Ramenzoni et al, 2012;Shockley et al, 2009;Tollefsen & Dale, 2012). Tollefsen and Dale (2012) have sketched how non-verbal alignment could be connected with joint agency.…”

“…Transactive memory is functionally equivalent to biological memory and to the use of a notebook as memory support: the partners are mostly available and accessible to each other and they actively create, maintain and retrieve endorsed information in a way that makes them complementary (Peltokorpi, 2008;Sutton et al, 2011;Theiner et al, 2010). Along similar lines, Tollefsen and Dale discuss how low-level behavioural coordination creates in certain cases a feeling of joint agency between the individuals involved (Tollefsen & Dale, 2012).…”

A growing conceptual and empirical literature is advancing the idea that language extends our cognitive skills. One of the most influential positions holds that language -qua material symbols -facilitates individual thought processes by virtue of its material properties (Clark, 2006a). Extending upon this model, we argue that language enhances our cognitive capabilities in a much more radical way: the skilful engagement of public material symbols facilitates evolutionarily unprecedented modes of collective perception, action and reasoning (interpersonal synergies) creating dialogically extended minds. We relate our approach to other ideas about collective minds (Gallagher, 2011;Theiner, Allen, & Goldstone, 2010;Tollefsen, 2006) and review a number of empirical studies to identify the mechanisms enabling the constitution of interpersonal cognitive systems.

“…There is overlap between this theory and a theory according to which affordances are socially shaped by enactive processes that bring the behavioral and cognitive states of multiple people into alignment "directly" through interactive dynamics (Schmidt & Richardson, 2008;Walton, Richardson, & Chemero, 2014). But recent work on the mechanics of shared intentionality, as well as reflections on the importance of sharing mental states for the development of the mind, make it possible to acknowledge the role of interactive dynamics within a more traditional approach to the ontology of the (social) mind-in part by making room for research on more basic forms of alignment (Gallotti & Frith, 2013;Tollefsen & Dale, 2012).…”

There are many ways to advance our understanding of the human mind by studying different kinds of sociality. Our aim in this introduction is to situate claims about extended cognition within a broader framework of research on human sociality. We briefly discuss the existing landscape, focusing on ways of defending socially extended cognition. We then draw on resources from the recent literature on the socially extended mind, as well as the literature on collective intentionality, to provide a framework for thinking about the social dimension of individual minds. We then turn to a brief overview of the individualistic approaches advanced by Ludwig and Spaulding in this volume. And we close with a discussion of the transformative role of the social mind in individual life presented by Kern and Moll, as well as the distributed approach to interacting systems defended by Goldstone and Theiner.
