Effect of odor preexposure on acquisition of an odor discrimination in dogs [PDF]
Learning & Behavior, 2014 In two experiments, we investigated the impact of odor preexposure treatments on the acquisition of an olfactory discrimination in dogs. In the first experiment, four groups of dogs were each given five days' odor-exposure treatment prior to discrimination training. Dogs in the exposure group were exposed to anise extract (S+) for 30 min daily. Dogs in

Acquisition of a temperature discrimination in neonatal dogs [PDF]
Bulletin of the Psychonomic Society, 1973 Neonatal dogs were trained on a go, no-go discrimination task using thermal cues and were tested subsequently for inhibitory control. Stable differential responding was obtained but more training was required, and no-go performance was poorer in comparison to previous results on a tactile discrimination.

Liking products by the head of a dog: Perceived orientation of attention induces valence acquisition [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, 2009 We show that the valence acquired by an object is sensitive to the perceived attention it receives and that this effect occurs in a quite implicit fashion. Participants were exposed to products (i.e., peppermint brands) associated with the head of dogs oriented toward them, looking straight ahead, or oriented away from them. Participants then completed

Acquisition and long-term memory of object names in a sample of Gifted Word Learner dogs [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2021 Dogs with a vocabulary of object names are rare and are considered uniquely gifted. In a few cases, these Gifted Word Learner (GWL) dogs have presented cognitive skills that are functionally similar to those of human infants. However, the acquisition rate of new object names and the ability of GWL dogs to form long-term memories of those is unknown. In
