🚨 Calling all researchers in animal behavior & cognition!
The ManyDogs Project is launching its next big collaborative study: ManyDogs 2 β€” and we want YOU to join us!
πŸ”πŸ•β€πŸ¦ΊWhat do we want know? We're investigating overimitation in dogs: Do dogs copy irrelevant actions just because their favorite human does them?
If you're ready to collaborate globally, contribute to reproducible science, and have fun doing it, email us at [email protected].

Such an interesting paper from @jespinosa about the Many Dogs project! What a great initiative! The first study, led by Dr Espinosa, looked at how dogs understand human gestures, like pointing. 🧍 πŸ‘‰ πŸ• ❔

Check out their first preprint, "ManyDogs 1: A Multi-Lab Replication Study of Dogs' Pointing Comprehension," on PsyArXiv: https://doi.org/10.31234/osf.io/f86jq
