Disentrainment may be a positive thing: A novel measure of unsigned acoustic-prosodic synchrony, and its relation to speaker engagement
Synchrony is a form of entrainment which consists in a relative coordination between two speakers, who throughout conversation simultaneously vary some properties of their speech. We describe two novel measures of acoustic-prosodic synchrony that are derived from a time-series analysis of the speech...

Synchrony is a form of entrainment which consists in a relative coordination between two speakers, who throughout conversation simultaneously vary some properties of their speech.

We describe significant correlations between the second measure and a number of positive social characteristics of the conversations, such as degree of speaker engagement, in a corpus of task-oriented dialogues in Standard American English.
