Task dynamics define the contextual emergence of human corralling behaviors

Abstract: Social animals have the remarkable ability to organize into collectives to achieve goals unobtainable to individual members. Equally striking is the observation that despite differences in perceptual-motor capabilities, different animals often exhibit qualitatively similar collective states of organization and coordination. Such qualitative similarities can be seen in corralling behaviors involving the encirclement of prey that are observed, for example, during collaborative hunting amongst several apex predat… Show more

“…Accordingly, some dyads discover and adopt a novel behavior, whereby instead of responding to the fleeing movements of individual TAs, participants perform coupled, rhythmic movements around the whole herd to form a sort of ‘wall’ around the herd. Interestingly, similar herding-like behavior involving highly coordinated patterns of movement is seen across various animal systems engaging in collaborative hunting and shepherding (D’Vincent et al, 1985; Muro et al, 2011; Nalepka, Silva, et al, 2021).…”

“…Consistent with other recent research exploring the dynamics of complex multiagent behavior (Lamb et al, 2019; Richardson et al, 2015), the current findings provide further evidence that the emergent behavioral dynamics of complex multiagent tasks can be defined using low-dimensional, task-dynamical models consisting of DPMPs. Moreover, such models continue to reveal the low-dimensional nature of goal-directed human behavior (Saltzman & Kelso, 1987), as well as the generic similitude with which simple point-attractive and limit-cycle processes underly functional human behavior across a wide range of task contexts (see also Nalepka, Silva, et al, 2021).…”
