Abstract

Namen diplomskega dela je bil predstaviti metode ocenjevanja čustvenih stanj pri psih. Človek je skozi leta izvajal selekcijo na psih in tako odbiral pse, ki bi bili čim bolj odvisni od ljudi in bi potrebovali človeško bližino.Zato je pomembno, da razumemo čustva psa in jim tako omogočimo boljše življenje, primerno okolje, jimdajemo možnost izražanja specifičnega obnašanja ter se izognemo številnim boleznim, ki so lahko posledica nezadovoljevanja potreb psa. Čustev ne moremo izmeriti neposredno, lahko pa izmerimo vedenjske, fiziološke in nevronske kazalnike čustev. Pri raziskovanju vedenjskih kazalnikov lahko uporabimo DMA-test (ang. dog mentalityassessment). Test je sestavljen iz večjega števila podtestov, pri katerih ocenjujemo odzive psov. Pri fizioloških kazalnikih čustevmerimo fiziološke spremembe v telesu, kot so spremembe v hormonalnem in dihalnem sistemu, spremembe v ožilju, srcu in telesni temperaturi. Pri merjenju telesne temperature lahko uporabimo metodo termografije. To je metoda,kinam pokaže toplotno razporeditev po površini živali inomogoča hitro odkrivanje anomalij v temperaturi. Ena od metod na področju nevronskih kazalnikov so kognitivni pristopi. Primer takšnih pristopov je pristranskost presoje, ki temelji na hipotezi, da bodo živali pokazale pesimističen ali optimističen odziv. Nevronske spremembe na možganih ob različnih dražljajih lahko merimo z različnimi metodami, kot soslikanje z magnetno resonanco, pozitronsko-emisijska tomografija in infrardeča spektroskopija, ter nam pomagajo razumeti, kako se možgani odzovejo ob različnih čustvih.

Secondary title:	Methods for evaluating emotional states in dogs
Secondary abstract:	The aim of B. Sc. Thesis was to present methods for evaluating emotional states in dogs. Over the years, humans have carried out the selection on dogs and selected dogs that would be dependent on humans as possible and need human closeness. Therefore, it is important to understand dog's emotions so we can enable them a better life, a suitable environment, give the dog the opportunity to express specific behaviour and avoid diseases that can be the result of not meeting the needs of the dog. Emotions cannot be measured directly, but we can measure behavioural, physiological, and neural indicators of emotions. Dog mentality assessment (DMA) test can be used to investigate behavioural indicators. The test contains several subtests in which we evaluate the responses of dogs. Physiological indicators of emotions measure physiological changes in the body, such as changes in the hormonal and respiratory systems, changes in blood vessels, heart and body temperature. For measuring body temperature, we can use the method called thermography. This is a method that shows the thermal distribution on the surface of the animal and allows detection of anomaliesin temperature. One of the methods of neural indicators are cognitive approaches. An example of such approaches is judgment bias, which is based on the hypothesis that animals will show a pessimistic or optimistic response. Neural changes in the brain can be measured by various methods, such as magnetic resonance imaging, positron emission tomography and infrared spectroscopy, and help us understand how the brain responds to different emotions.
