"What distinguishes joint attention from merely attending together? How is joint attention connected to collective action and cooperation? What role does sharing of emotions, joint engagement, and embodied cognition play in episodes of joint attention, and for its development? Is joint attention a uniquely human phenomenon – or do apes, monkeys or packs of wolves and other animals (who, in some sense certainly seem cooperate attentively) engage in it as well? What capacities are needed to explain joint attention (is it, for example, necessary to have the capacity to understand another’s point of view)? And what capacities can be explained by reference to joint attention (is, for example, any serious form of cooperation possible without it)?"
