“…That comprehensive chapter was entitled "Systems analysis of hormone action: principles and strategies" (28), and it extended ideas he had been developing at USC in the early 1970s (23, 24) regarding systems analysis as applied especially to endocrine and biochemical/metabolic studies (55,57). By this time, Prof. Yates had an established reputation for a "systems biology" approach to physiology, including computer simulations.…”

“…The radical claim, as Gibson (1979) once remarked, is that behavior is regular but there are no regulators. A less radical statement would be an affirmative answer to Yates's (1980) question to the readers of the American Journal of Physiology: Do [you] know of a serious effort to discharge the homunculus?…”

“…The primacy of oscillations for the regulation and control of living systems has been articulated in the early works of Iberall, Yates, Morowitz, and others. For example, Homeokinetic theory (e.g., Soodak and Iberall, 1978;Yates, 1982) addresses the conditions for persistence, autonomy and self-organization in biological systems from a physical perspective (irreversible thermodynamics). A fundamental tenet is that energy flow from a source to a sink will lead to at least one cycle in the system (Morowitz, 1968).…”

Humans' interactions with each other or with socially competent machines exhibit lawful coordination patterns at multiple levels of description. According to Coordination Dynamics, such laws specify the flow of coordination states produced by functional synergies of elements (e.g., cells, body parts, brain areas, people.. .) that are temporarily organized as single, coherent units. These coordinative structures or synergies may be mathematically characterized as informationally coupled self-organizing dynamical systems (Coordination Dynamics). In this paper, we start from a simple foundation, an elemental model system for social interactions, whose behavior has been captured in the Haken-Kelso-Bunz (HKB) model. We follow a tried and tested scientific method that tightly interweaves experimental neurobehavioral studies and mathematical models. We use this method to further develop a body of empirical research that advances the theory toward more generalized forms. In concordance with this interdisciplinary spirit, the present paper is written both as an overview of relevant advances and as an introduction to its mathematical underpinnings. We demonstrate HKB's evolution in the context of social coordination along several directions, with its applicability growing to increasingly complex scenarios. In particular, we show that accommodating for symmetry breaking in intrinsic dynamics and coupling, multiscale generalization and adaptation are principal evolutions. We conclude that a general framework for social coordination dynamics is on the horizon, in which models support experiments with hypothesis generation and mechanistic insights.
