Do Domestic Dogs Learn Words Based on Humans’ Referential Behaviour?
Some domestic dogs learn to comprehend human words, although the nature and basis of this learning is unknown. In the studies presented here we investigated whether dogs learn words through an understanding of referential actions by humans rather than simple association. In three studies, each modelled on a study conducted with human infants, we confronted four word-experienced dogs with situat...
متن کاملSelective Imitation in Domestic Dogs
The transmission of cultural knowledge requires learners to identify what relevant information to retain and selectively imitate when observing others' skills. Young human infants--without relying on language or theory of mind--already show evidence of this ability.

This state can be assimilated with the fear reactions that occur after aversive stimuli are introduced at both the physiological and behavioral levels. This study evaluated frustration reaction...
متن کاملPrenatal stress produces anxiety prone female offspring and impaired maternal behaviour in the domestic pig.
Numerous studies have shown that prenatal stress (PNS) can have profound effects on postnatal well-being. Here, the domestic pig (Sus scrofa) was used to investigate PNS effects owing to the direct relevance for farm animal welfare and the developing status of the pig as a large animal model in translational research. Pregnant primiparous sows were exposed, in mid-gestation, to either a social ...
متن کاملDimensions of maternal behaviour characteristics in domestic and wildxdomestic crossbred sows.
We examined the maternal behaviour of seven domestic and seven wildxdomestic primiparous sows during 10 days post partum to investigate two questions: (1) Did maternal behaviour change during domestication? (2) Can the interindividual variability of maternal behaviour be subsumed into a few dimensions of maternal temperament? We recorded: (a) willingness to leave the nest for food on Day 2; (b)...
