A novel cooperative behavior assay in rats reveals distinct social coordination strategies of increasing complexity and social reciprocity deficits in a model of Fragile-X Syndrome
rats thus showed selective disruption in social reciprocity due to impaired ability to predict and synchronize with partner actions. These findings provide a novel framework for dissecting the behavioral and neural mechanisms underlying social cooperation.
