The coordination dynamics framework has presumed that fluctuations in relative phase series produced in bimanual coordination are random. However, results from recent studies have shown that relative phase series contain 1/f(beta) noise (persistent long-range correlations) instead. Using an incremental protocol in line with the paradigmatic bimanual coordination framework, the author shows that the movement frequencies at which individuals spontaneously switch from anti-phase to in-phase coordination are significantly correlated with the intensity of long-range correlations but not with the amplitude of baseline fluctuations in relative phase. This finding illustrates the tangible relationship between present theoretical perspectives and accumulating evidence for 1/f(beta) noise. The author underscores the heuristic potential of systematic efforts to bridge the gap between present theories and the pervasive findings of 1/f(beta) noise.
