Science is proving what pet owners have long believed: Dogs understand what we're feeling. Specifically, dogs can recognize the difference between a happy and an angry human face, a study published Thursday in Current Biology suggests.
在《当代生物学》杂志上刊登的一篇研究表明,科学证明了宠物主人一直坚信的观点:狗能够读懂我们的心情。尤其是,狗能够辨别人面部表情高兴与生气之间的区别。
It's the first research to show definitively that dogs are sensitive to our facial expressions, says coauthor Ludwig Huber, head of comparative cognition at Messerli Research Institute at the University of Veterinary Medicine, Vienna.
维也纳兽医大学梅瑟利研究所负责人、也是合著者之一的路德维希·休伯说,这是第一个完全表明狗对我们的面部表情很敏感的研究。
In the Austrian study, 20 pet dogs of various breeds and sizes were taught to play a computer game through a series of exercises. In the first, the dogs were shown two touch screens, one with a circle and one with a square. Through trial and error, they learned that a treat would appear if they chose the right geometrical figure.
在奥地利的研究中,通过训练,让20只不同品种和大小的宠物狗来玩一种电脑游戏。期初,给狗展示两个触摸屏,一个是圆圈,一个是正方形。通过反复试验,它们知道,如果他们选择正确的几何图形,就会有奖励。
