Gestures and speech are mostly well-aligned. However, during difficult tasks, gesture-speech mismatches occur. This study investigates the dynamic interplay between gestures and speech as 12 children perform a hands-on air pressure task. We applied Cross Recurrence Quantification Analysis on the time series of understanding levels displayed in gestures and speech. We focused on: 1) the temporal relation between gestures and speech, 2) the relative strength and direction of the coupling between gestures and speech (overall and for different levels of understanding), and 3) the relations between recurrence measures and some child characteristics. Strength, direction, and timing of the coupling between gestures and speech were different for yo...
