Specifically, I would like to learn how these two areas of animal behavior may interact, and to what extent ontogeny and phylogeny play a role in shaping an individual\u2019s personality and cognitive abilities. One of my aims is to search for ways to apply this knowledge towards improving animal welfare and training. For example, could enrichment opportunities or behavior modification techniques be optimized based on an individual dog\u2019s measured traits or cognitive level? Could human-canine pairing success be improved by utilizing personality measures? In the case of working dogs, can real-world success be predicted based on early measurements?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Graduate Student CONTACT INFO E-mail: miles.bensky@gmail.com Phone: 206-419-2361 Mailing address: The University of Texas at Austin Department of Psychology 1 University Station A8000 Austin, TX, 78712-0187 RESEARCH INTERESTS My major research interests include non-human animal personality and cognition, with a particular interest in canine behavior.
