Coordination: Theoretical, Methodological, and Experimental Perspectives
No full textInterpersonal coordination broadly captures the ways in which interacting individuals become more similar over time in their behavior, cognition, and affect over time. The research area around interpersonal coordination is poised to yield unique insights into questions of human communication, interaction, and social behavior. As a field, interpersonal coordination still has immense room to grow---providing an exciting challenge to interdisciplinary researchers. Interpersonal coordination has enjoyed an explosion of interest in recent years, making these challenges even more urgent. Here, in collaboration with various coauthors, I present three projects that address some of the key theoretical, methodological, and experimental issues facing the research area today.First, I present a data-driven exploration of the terminology surrounding interpersonal coordination (Paxton & Dale, in preparation). From alignment to synergy, there are handfuls of terms that are used to describe this social phenomenon, with little to no agreement across the field on their relation to one another. Using scientometric and corpus analysis tools, the first project analyzes a corpus of thousands of abstracts on related research to shed some light on the implicit structure in the data.Next, I introduce PsyGlass, an open-source application that turns Google Glass into a tool for naturalistic data collection (Paxton, Rodriguez, & Dale, 2015, Behavior Research Methods). The inherently social nature of interpersonal coordination poses an interesting problem to cognitive scientists who must attempt to balance external validity with experimenter control. PsyGlass is designed for naturalistic exploration of theory-driven questions in interpersonal interaction by facilitating surreptitious data collection and moment-to-moment control over participant visual stimuli.Finally, I explore how context modulates patterns of coordination in gaze patterns (Paxton, Dale, & D. C. Richardson, in preparation). This chapter contributes to emerging work that explores how higher-level social factors can alter patterns of coordination by focusing on conflict.This dissertation, Coordination: Theoretical, Methodological, and Experimental Perspectives, is submitted by Alexandra Paxton in 2015 in partial fulfillment of the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Cognitive and Information Sciences at the University of California, Merced, under the guidance of dissertation committee chair Rick Dale
The Beat handbook : 100 days of Kerouactions
No full textThe Beat Handbook: 100 Days of Kerouactions, by Rick Dale, brings the wit and wisdom of the beat generation, and its titular head, Jack Kerouac, into contemporary application through one hundred daily suggestions on how to deal with everything from sex to parking your car. In the tradition of the What Would Jesus Do? books, Rick Dale reinterprets the question and applies the unique spin of beat philosophy to modern living, following the premise that in order to be a beat, one need only take one’s lead from the words of the acknowledged “King of the Beats”: Jack Kerouac. Inspired by Kerouac’s On The Road and The Dharma Bums, Dale’s The Beat Handbook: 100 Days of Kerouactions uses humor and whimsy to bring an old perspective on living and loving life into a fresh context. Told by a true beat aficionado, The Beat Handbook: 100 Days of Kerouactions makes what was old new again, while dispensing more than a little fun, philosophy, and Kerouacian guidance along the way.https://scholarworks.umf.maine.edu/publications/1019/thumbnail.jp

An Extended, Dynamic Account of Collaborative Remembering and Information Search
No full textOur memories are collections of the information we have experienced and learned over the course of our lives. While the nature of memory has been studied extensively in the history of the cognitive and psychological sciences, relatively little is known about how we sift through that information space to bring up any given thought at a given moment. According to the extended, dynamical systems framework, the mind is interwoven inextricably into its environment, and so the process of memory retrieval must be considered from a contextually-situated perspective. The goal of the current project is to highlight the importance of a key component of any memory system’s context: the social interactive context. Using both empirical and computational methodologies, the interdisciplinary studies described herein compare the processes employed by individuals and collaborating dyads while searching through information space. Inspiration is drawn from the domains of ecological foraging and particle diffusion in statistical physics to explain foraging dynamics, and from complex systems science to explore collaboration dynamics.Ultimately, the project argues that not only is the social collaborative context an important modulator of memory processes at an individual level, but that in some cases people might be able to coordinate their memory processes, coming together to act as one. Through technological advancements, we are increasingly able to communicate and work collaboratively on all sorts of projects. Thus, a call is made for ongoing research to consider the conditions in which we can optimize information retrieval in these collaborative scenarios.This dissertation, An Extended, Dynamic Account of Collaborative Remembering and Information Search, is submitted by Janelle Szary in 2015 in partial fulfillment of the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Cognitive and Information Sciences at the University of California, Merced, under the guidance of dissertation committee co-chairs Rick Dale and Christopher T.

About Dale Cooper
No full textDale J. Cooper (b. 1941) is chaplain emeritus of Calvin College (now University), a position he held for thirty years, starting in 1979. The chaplaincy, he said, offered the best of three worlds—the opportunity to teach, to preach, and to be a pastor to 4,000 students. Cooper—known to decades of students as “Coop”—initiated the LOFT worship service on campus in 1996.
In 2008, after retiring from his role as chaplain and religion professor, Cooper joined the Calvin Institute of Christian Worship as a resource development specialist for liturgical spirituality. His contributions included a four-year run as author of Coop’s Column, featuring spiritual reflections on Christian worship. Cooper also became an adjunct faculty member in Calvin’s department of Congregational and Ministry Studies, where he has served as a pastoral mentor in the Jubilee Fellows program. With the advent of the Calvin Prison Initiative in 2015, Cooper also began teaching at the Richard A. Handlon Correctional Facility.
Cooper’s writings over the years have included a study guide to the Psalms, meditations for the Calvin journal Dialogue, and a twelve-part series highlighting John Calvin’s teachings for The Banner. Cooper was ordained in the Christian Reformed Church of North America in 1972. Before joining the Calvin College faculty in 1976, he worked for five years at Calvin Christian High School and Unity Christian High School.
In recognition of his extensive impact on campus and beyond, Cooper was named the recipient of Calvin’s Faith and Learning Award in 2017. He also received the Calvin Theological Seminary Distinguished Alumni Award in 2015.
Cooper earned a bachelor’s degree from Calvin College (1964), an MDiv degree from Calvin Theological Seminary (1968), and a doctorandus degree from the Free University of Amsterdam (1971). His family has established the Dale and Marcia Cooper Family Scholarship to benefit international students at Calvin. His stated life\u27s aim: To live faithfully as Jesus\u27 disciple for the world to see.https://digitalcommons.calvin.edu/cicw-staff-work/1003/thumbnail.jp
