dc.description.abstractThis study investigated the influence of social factors in a dyadic training protocol. Specifically, the relationships between individual difference variables (extraversion and interaction anxiety), verbal communication, and the efficacy of the active interlocked modeling (AIM) protocol were examined using a complex perceptual-motor task. A total of 105 male participants were randomly assigned to either the AIM protocol or an individual-based control condition. Verbal communication was unobtrusively recorded while participants performed the task. Within the dyadic protocol, extroverts and low-interaction-anxiety participants engaged in more communication than introverts and high-interaction-anxiety participants. Task-related communication was negatively related to performance such that members of dyads engaging in higher levels of communication tended to have lower performance. Finally, assignment to the dyadic protocol appeared to adversely affect the performance of high-interaction-anxiety participants. Several limitations and implications of the present study are discussed.en
