• Clever hounds: social cognition in the domestic dog (Canis familiaris) (2003, unknown): “…learning processes in dogs including spatial memory (Gagnon and Dore, 1992, 1994; Fiset et al., 2000) and the response to human (Hare et al., 1998; Miklosi et al., 1998; McKinley and Sambrook, 2000; Soproni et al., 2001; Pongracz et al., 2002) and conspecific social cues (Hare and Tomasello, 1999).”
• Comparative social cognition: From wolf and dog to humans (2006, background): “Dogs that are exposed to a human or conspecific demonstrator solving detour or instrumental tasks are more successful at those tasks than dogs that have not witnessed the demonstration (Pongrácz et al., 2001; Pongrácz, Miklósi, Tímár-Geng, & Csányi, 2003; Pongrácz, Miklósi, Timár-Geng, & Csányi, 200”
• Co-operative interactions between blind persons and their dogs (2001, background): “It seems that the innate ability for co-operation and the attainment of the need to observe the human's behaviour (see also Kubinyi et al., 2000; Pongra Âcz et al., 2001), gives a ®rm basis for co-operation in guiding the blind person.”
• Interaction between individual experience and social learning in dogs (2003, unknown): “Recently we showed how social learning improves the performance of dogs facing a new problem (Pongrácz et al. 2001b).”
• The pet dogs ability for learning from a human demonstrator in a detour task is independent from the breed and age (2005, unknown): “…in the single breed groups were relatively small, dog numbers in the pooled breed groups was large enough for more relevant statistical analysis (much smaller sample sizes were enough to detect strong differences in any of our previous detourexperiments , see Pongrácz et al., 2001b, 2003a,b, 2004).”
