Our body synchronizes with other people in five different ways

Scientific investigations identify five distinct forms of body synchronization between people, challenging the popular idea that menstrual cycles synchronize in women who live together — the so-called "McClintock effect," which lacks convincing evidence. However, the human body coordinates with that of other people through mechanisms such as synchronization, when physiological or behavioral processes present coordinated temporal patterns, and co-regulation, when one individual's emotional or physiological state influences that of another.
