A systematic investigation of communication behaviour between 2-to-5 year old children and their pet dogs (N=18), from video films shot in the home, shows that children take the initiative in communication more often, and that they seek more body contact with their dog. Different characteristics of the children such as age, family size and different characteristics of the dog such as size and sex are significantly correlated (p<.01 or p<.05) with the quantity of communications and with the different types of child behaviour in relation to the dog (stroking, hitting, etcz.sfnc;). This preliminary report leads to suggestions for further investigations of the data.
一项对2至5岁儿童与其宠物狗（N = 18）之间交流行为的系统调查，该调查基于在家中拍摄的视频影片，结果显示儿童在交流中更常主动发起，并且他们寻求与狗有更多的身体接触。儿童的不同特征，如年龄、家庭规模，以及狗的不同特征，如体型和性别，与交流的数量以及儿童与狗相关的不同行为类型（抚摸、击打等）显著相关（p <.01或p <.05）。这份初步报告为进一步研究这些数据提出了建议。
