ABSTRACT
The goal of this chapter is to present the impact of mental disorders on interpersonal coordination. We will present two mental disorders (schizophrenia and social anxiety disorder) characterized by social functional deficits, and discuss their consequences for nonverbal social behaviours in general and social motor coordination in particular. Finally, we will discuss the importance of considering social motor behaviours as a potential target of psychosocial treatment in psychiatric disorders.
