Abstract
Interpersonal coordination is fundamental to social evolution. We investigate its phenomenology and neural underpinnings in humans and macaques, examining the behavioral adaptations required for mutual coordination during motor interactions and the extent to which the underlying brain mechanisms are shared across species. Using a common interpersonal coordination paradigm, we conducted functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in humans and intracranial local field potential (LFP) recordings in macaques. Despite between-species behavioral discrepancies, both monkeys and humans coordinate through adjustments that proved to be based on proactive adaptation of motor planning and execution. Evidence from fMRI and time-resolved decoding analysis of LFPs converged to show modulation of premotor brain activity associated with interpersonal coordination and its effectiveness. Moreover, a dynamic sequential coding emerged, whereby the action context is represented early during planning, and coordination features near movement onset. Our findings reveal an evolutionarily conserved cortical architecture across primates that supports cooperative motor behavior.

Tracing map
Proposed by the machine: these links were found in the paper and verified at the source, without human review. The map will receive a Zenodo DOI once one of the paper's authors has validated it with their ORCID.
What the map holds:
- 2 repositories of the authors' code, each at its verified commit, with its license and how the link was found in the paper;
- 23 scripts, each with its path and the digest of its content;
- 10 matches between paragraphs of the paper and lines of the code (method lexical-v1);
- neither the text of the paper nor the code itself.
Its JSON (tracing-map.json) is deposited on Zenodo with its DOI once the map is validated.
