Great write up of a recent PNAS paper "Collaborative imagination synchronizes representations of the future and fosters social connection in the present" in this blog by Erman Misirlisoy:

"The researchers were testing the specific effects of combining collaboration and imagination [..] After completing the collaborative imagination task, people felt 18% more socially connected to each other than they did after completing the individual imagination task. They were also 10% more socially connected compared to the collaborative gaming condition."
