[00:00.80] Dogs are usually not relaxed in a lab environment,
[00:03.84] but with a little petting and lots of treats they can be trained to sit still even in an MRI scanner.
[00:09.97] That’s how researchers in Hungary’s ELTE University were able to get images of their brains at work.
[00:16.01] Research fellow says it helped them better understand the dogs’ relationship with humans.
[00:21.38] “We have known for a long time that dogs and humans share similar social environment,
[00:27.48] but now our results show that dogs and humans also have similar brain mechanisms to process social information,"
[00:37.25] After training 11 dogs to stay motionless while their brains were scanned,
[00:41.53] the researchers checked their neurological responses to about 200 emotionally relevant sounds,
[00:46.93] from whining and crying to playful barking and laughing.
[00:49.90] They then compared the responses from human subjects.
[00:52.53] They found striking similarities.
[00:54.35] Andics says it opens new possibilities for research.
[00:57.44] “It establishes a foundation of a new branch of comparative neuroscience,
[01:01.58] because until now it was not possible to measure the brain activities of a non-primate
[01:07.23] and the primate brain in a single experiment,"
[01:10.55] The canine mind is also being studied at Duke University, in North Carolina.
[01:15.03] Co-Director of the school's Canine Cognition Center, Evan MacLean,
[01:19.09] says that the Hungarian results are an important step forward.
[01:24.93] “We’ve known for a long time that dogs have a lot of behavioral similarities compared to humans.
[01:29.84] But we don’t know anything or very little at least about
[01:32.54] whether some of these behaviors are represented similarly inside the brain of the dog,
[01:39.57] so this research is providing a first glimpses to whether these behavioral similarities are underlined by similar neural processes,"
[01:46.04] And what that tells ordinary dog owners, the Hungarian scientists say,
[01:49.73] is to treat your canine companions as friends, not mere animals,
[01:53.97] because they evidently understand human feelings.
