A shared or mutual state of being aware of something, where two or more people or things are simultaneously conscious of the same fact, situation, or phenomenon.
From 'co-' (together) + 'awareness' (from 'aware' + '-ness', ultimately from Germanic roots meaning 'wary' or 'cautious'). This newer term emerged in psychology and neuroscience to describe synchronized consciousness.
Neuroscientists studying twins or people in close relationships have found that coawareness—literally thinking about the same thing at the same time—actually strengthens their emotional bonds and helps them predict each other's actions.
