In the last respect, research has pointed to the operation of non-conscious synchronization and convergence processes and possible vicarious affective experiences. Barsade’s (2002) model envisaged group members perceiving others’ emotions mainly through their nonverbal signals (facial expression, bodily posture, etc.), and translating those inputs through a rapid process of automatic, nonconscious mimicry. The replication of someone else’s bodily activity was proposed to give rise to linked emotional experiences. She reviewed research indicating that “once people engage in the mimicking behavior, they then experience the emotional itself” (p. 648).
