“…In sheepdog herding contexts specifically, similar patterns of (S&R-like) pursuit and (COC-like) oscillatory behavior are also observed (52,63,64). Such patterns are also common in many team sports contexts (65,66), implying that the patterns of S&R and COC behavior observed here reflect context-specific realizations of the lawful dynamics that define functional shepherding behavior more generally (20,31).…”

Multiagent activity is commonplace in everyday life and can improve the behavioral efficiency of task performance and learning. Thus, augmenting social contexts with the use of interactive virtual and robotic agents is of great interest across health, sport, and industry domains. However, the effectiveness of human–machine interaction (HMI) to effectively train humans for future social encounters depends on the ability of artificial agents to respond to human coactors in a natural, human-like manner. One way to achieve effective HMI is by developing dynamical models utilizing dynamical motor primitives (DMPs) of human multiagent coordination that not only capture the behavioral dynamics of successful human performance but also, provide a tractable control architecture for computerized agents. Previous research has demonstrated how DMPs can successfully capture human-like dynamics of simple nonsocial, single-actor movements. However, it is unclear whether DMPs can be used to model more complex multiagent task scenarios. This study tested this human-centered approach to HMI using a complex dyadic shepherding task, in which pairs of coacting agents had to work together to corral and contain small herds of virtual sheep. Human–human and human–artificial agent dyads were tested across two different task contexts. The results revealed (i) that the performance of human–human dyads was equivalent to those composed of a human and the artificial agent and (ii) that, using a “Turing-like” methodology, most participants in the HMI condition were unaware that they were working alongside an artificial agent, further validating the isomorphism of human and artificial agent behavior.

“…In team sports sciences, interpersonal coordination in athletes has been intensively investigated in small-sided [17][18][19] and actual games [8,20,21]. However, the quantitative evaluation of such interpersonal coordination during sports activities in patients with mental disorders has been unknown.…”

“…We firstly hypothesized that patients with schizophrenia would perform skills requiring ball passing and receiving a ball worse than healthy controls, because patients with schizophrenia have impaired cognitive functions [22]. To test the hypothesis, we employed a 3-vs-1 ball possession task in football [17,18], which includes the fundamental passing and receiving skills.…”

Team sports activities are effective for improving the negative symptoms and cognitive functions in patients with schizophrenia. However, the interpersonal coordination during the sports and visual cognition of patients with schizophrenia who have team sports habits are unknown. The main objectives of this study were to test two hypotheses: first, patients with schizophrenia perform the skill requiring ball passing and receiving worse than healthy controls; and second, the patients will be impaired in these functionings in accordance with the previous studies regarding schizophrenia in general. Twelve patients with schizophrenia and 15 healthy controls, who had habits in football, participated in this study. The participants performed three conventional cognitive tests and a 3-vs-1 ball possession task to evaluate their interpersonal coordination. The results showed that in the 3-vs-1 possession task, the displacement in the pass angle for the patients was significantly smaller than that for the control. The recall in the complex figure test, the performance in the trail making test, and that in the five-choice reaction task for the patients were worse than those for the control. Moreover, we found the significant partial correlations in the patients between the extradimensional shift error and the pass angle as well as between the time in the trail making test and the displacement in the pass angle, whereas there was no significant correlation in the control group. This study clarified the impaired interpersonal coordination during team sports and the visual cognition of patients with schizophrenia who have team sports habits.

“…By simulating real-world coordinating behaviors in a virtual space, even those with difficulty regarding their physical movement can actually participate in coordinating behaviors. As a typical example of coordinating behaviors, we focus on a three vs. one ball possession game, which is often used to develop team coordination skills in a sports field (Figure 1 (a)) [11].…”
