Dogs in the fashion show |
The scientists found out that animals not only obey what we say. The more important is, how we communicate with them.
Quoted from page Daily Mail, the dog can follow eye contact, just as the children aged 2 years.
Topal Jszsef of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences said that it is increasing evidence to support the idea that humans and dogs share some social skills.
"How the dogs resemble children ages 6 months to 2 years in many ways," Topal said.
Dogs see all the human eye contact, to develop what is meant, and why humans talk to them. "Dogs are like babies, they are sensitive to cues signaling the intention," Topal said.
Topal team tested the dogs with a video conversation in a different tone of voice as well as using different levels of eye contact.
The dog turns out to read and understand the enthusiasm of eye contact, like children. Dogs also know when they talk and guess what we think.
However, it is not known whether the dogs depend on the same track in the brain to process the signal.
The team tested in two ways. First, he rebuked the dog with eye contact, then admonished in a high tone. Secondly, people say hello to a dog in a low tone, but avoid eye contact.
Researchers found that dogs prefer to follow the first. "Our discovery that the dog will accept menngungkapkan human communication in a way that was previously associated with the baby," said Topal.
However, this is the first study to use eye tracking techniques to study the dog's social skills. "By following the eye movements of dogs, we were able to see, how their mind actually works," Topal said.
"We think that the use of the latest eye tracking technology has provided the potential is staggering," he said. This research has been published online in the journal "Current Biology"
