D"We thought dogs would behave like children under age 5. but sow we guess that perhaps dogs can understand when someone is dishonest, "says Huber at the University of Vienna in Austria, "Maybe they think, This person has the same knowledge as me, but is giving me the wrong information, 'It's possible they could see that as lying. "Once that trust was established, the team had the dogs see another person move the food from the first to the second bowl. The communicators （交流者）were either in the room, and also saw the switch（转移）, or were briefly absent and so apparently unaware that the food had been switched. In either case, the communicators would later recommend the first bawl. which was now empty. In previous versions of this experiment with children under age s. the participants reacted in particular ways. They would typically ignore the communicator who gave honest but misleading advice on where the food was. However. if the communicator had been in the room and seen the switch, but still recommended the first （now empty） bowl. young children were actually much more likely to follow the communicator, knowingly misleading suggestion. This may be because the children trusted the communicator over the evidence of their own eyes. says Huber. The dogs in the new experiment, however, werent' so trusting of lying communicators, much to the researchers' surprise, say Huber. Hall of the dogs would follow the communicator's misleading advice if the communicator hadn't seen the food switch. But only one-third of dogs followed the communicator who had seen the food witch and still recommended the now-empty bowl. These dogs simply went to the bowl filled with food instead.
