This article assesses a dog model in terms of a proposed cross-species definition of phobia, the model referring to a strain of unstable dogs that has been produced by selection and inbreeding. The unstable dogs are contrasted with a strain of stable dogs. New findings are presented on approach and activity behavior toward three stimulus objects (man, another dog, and a sheet-covered chair) in a naturalistic setting. The fear response of unstable dogs to objects other than man habituates gradually, whereas the fear response to the sight of man is far more enduring, suggesting a relatively specific fear of man.
本文根据所提出的恐惧症跨物种定义评估了一种犬类模型，该模型指的是通过选育和近亲繁殖培育出的不稳定犬种。将不稳定犬与稳定犬种进行了对比。展示了在自然环境中，不稳定犬对三种刺激物（人、另一只狗和蒙着布的椅子）的接近和活动行为的新发现。不稳定犬对人以外物体的恐惧反应会逐渐习惯化，而对人的恐惧反应则更为持久，这表明对人存在相对特定的恐惧。
