ABSTRACT Interpersonal physiological synchrony refers to the temporal coordination of autonomic states during social encounters. Previous studies indicate that may arise nonverbal interactions. Nevertheless, role played by contextual and individual factors in determining its emergence is understudied. In this work, we examined heart rate a cooperative joint action task, exploring how task constraints, novelty, behavioral influence alignment. To achieve this, periodically modulated demands alternating between peer‐to‐peer leader–follower dynamics, as well complementary imitative movements, their combinations. Additionally, assessed differences examining impact dyad members' Social Anxiety Perspective Taking levels. We further investigated personal traits shape perceived quality interactions subject‐level variability. Our findings revealed significant increase decrease interaction when participants switched novel version (i.e., switch blocks) compared repetition. Task switching was also associated with increased Notably, negatively predicted synchrony, suggesting more socially anxious dyads were less likely However, no relationship observed performance. Overall, our results suggest intensifies navigate challenge learning together, both aspects contribute emergence.
