Dog Experts' Brains Distinguish Socially Relevant Body Postures Similarly in Dogs and Humans
We read conspecifics' social cues effortlessly, but little is known about our abilities to understand social gestures of other species. To investigate the neural underpinnings of such skills, we used functional magnetic resonance imaging to study the brain activity of experts and non-experts of dog behavior while they observed humans or dogs either interacting with, or facing away from a conspe...
متن کاملDogs’ Body Language Relevant to Learning Achievement
The facial expressions and body postures of dogs can give helpful information about their moods and emotional states. People can more effectively obedience train their dogs if we can identify the mannerisms associated with learning in dogs. The aim of this study was to clarify the dog's body language during operant conditioning to predict achievement in the test that followed by measuring the d...
متن کاملComparison of dogs and humans in visual scanning of social interaction
Previous studies have demonstrated similarities in gazing behaviour of dogs and humans, but comparisons under similar conditions are rare, and little is known about dogs' visual attention to social scenes. Here, we recorded the eye gaze of dogs while they viewed images containing two humans or dogs either interacting socially or facing away: the results were compared with equivalent data measur...
متن کامل“Defense” injuries in attacks on humans by domestic dog (Canis lupus familiaris) and jaguar (Panthera onca)
This communication describes two attacks by domestic and wild carnivores in Caceres County, localized in the Pantanal area, an extensive flooded plain in Mato Grosso State, Midwest region of Brazil. The first attack took place in an urban area and was caused by a Rottweiler dog (Canis lupus familiaris) created by the family of the victim. Another attack occurred in a rural area, caused by a jag...
متن کاملSocially relevant representations in interfaces for learning
In this paper we describe a way of looking at how people learn from computer interfaces. In particular, we describe the concept of a socially relevant representation, or a representation of social context information (as opposed to domain knowledge information). We describe known or hypothesized mechanisms by which such representations might facilitate learning, and discuss implications for the...
