After reviewing the phenomenological analyses of transcendental intersubjectivity and being‑with (Mitsein) in Husserl and Heidegger, respectively, I explore the relationship between such analyses and recent empirical research in the developmental and cognitive sciences, including dynamic systems modeling. I suggest that if we bring the insights of this recent literature back to the question of the transcendental analysis, then in at least one regard, namely, with respect to primary intersubjectivity, it supports Husserl’s account and reveals a problem with Heidegger’s analysis of being‑with.
