先前的研究表明，观察他人的动作可能会干扰同步动作的执行。这种干扰效应归因于观察到的运动和执行的运动之间的不协调。这项研究考察了观察和执行动作一致性的不同方面。参与者试图通过两种运动任务中的一种在空中画直线，同时观察实验者的动作因其任务和空间一致性而异。数据显示，观察到的运动的运动学方面被合并到观察者自己的运动中。观察相同的运动学会导致干扰或促进效应，这取决于观察到的运动方向与参与者进行的运动是一致还是不一致。这些数据表明，观察到的运动的低水平特性可以调节参与者的表现。
Previous studies demonstrate that observing the movements of others can interfere with concurrent movement execution. This interference effect is attributed to incongruence between the observed and executed movements. The study presented here examined different aspects of observed and executed movement congruency. Participants attempted to trace straight lines in the air using one of two movement tasks while observing an experimenter perform movements varied by their task and spatial congruency. The data revealed that kinematic aspects of the observed movements were incorporated into the observer's own movements. Observing the same kinematics led to interference or facilitation effects depending on whether the direction of the observed movement was congruent or incongruent with the movement the participant performed. These data suggest that low-level properties of observed movements can modulate participant performance.
