| Summary: | These data result from an investigation examining the interplay between dyadic rapport and consequential behavior-mirroring. Participants responded to a variety of interpersonally-focused pretest measures prior to their engagement in videotaped interdependent tasks (coded for interactional synchrony using Motion Energy Analysis [17,18]). A post-task evaluation of rapport and other related constructs followed each exchange. Four studies shared these same dependent measures, but asked distinct questions: Study 1 (N<sub>dyad</sub> = 38) explored the influence of perceived responsibility and gender-specificity of the task; Study 2 (N<sub>dyad </sub>= 51) focused on dyad sex-makeup; Studies 3 (N<sub>dyad </sub>= 41) and 4 (N<sub>dyad </sub>= 63) examined cognitive load impacts on the interactions. Versions of the data are structured with both individual and dyad as the unit of analysis. Our data possess strong reuse potential for theorists interested in dyadic processes and are especially pertinent to questions about dyad agreement and interpersonal perception / behavior association relationships.
