Awake fMRI Reveals Brain Regions for Novel Word Detection in Dogs

Ashley Prichard, Peter F. Cook, Mark Spivak, Raveena Chhibber, Gregory S. Berns

This study uses awake-fMRI to identify brain regions in dogs involved in novel word detection, finding greater activation for pseudowords in parietotemporal cortex and word-specific patterns in temporal and limbic regions.

Awake fMRI Reveals Covert Arousal in Aggressive Dogs Under Social Resource Threat

Peter F. Cook, Ashley Prichard, Mark Spivak, Gregory S. Berns

The paper uses fMRI to show that aggressive dogs have higher amygdala activation when observing their owner interacting with a fake dog compared to a food bucket, suggesting a neurobiological basis for dog-directed aggression.
