人类通过语言进行交流，语言使我们能够谈论超越时间和空间的事情。非人类动物是否学会将人类语言与日常生活中的特定物体联系起来？我们研究了猫是否与熟悉的猫的名字和面孔（Exp.1）和人类家庭成员的名字和面孔（Exp.2）相匹配。在听到被试猫的主人（实验一）或实验者（实验二）叫这只猫的名字或另一只猫的名字后，在笔记本电脑显示器上给猫看一张熟悉的猫的脸的照片。一半的实验是在名字和脸匹配的一致条件下进行的，另一半是在不一致（不匹配）的条件下进行的。结果表明，在不一致条件下，家猫对监测器的关注时间更长，存在期望违反效应；然而，咖啡猫却没有。在实验2中，生活在较大人类家庭中的猫在不一致的情况下注视监视器的时间越来越长。此外，这种倾向在与人类家庭生活时间较长的猫中更为强烈，尽管我们不能排除年龄的影响。这项研究提供了证据，证明猫在没有明确训练的情况下就能把同伴的名字和相应的脸联系起来。
Humans communicate with each other through language, which enables us talk about things beyond time and space. Do non-human animals learn to associate human speech with specific objects in everyday life? We examined whether cats matched familiar cats’ names and faces (Exp.1) and human family members’ names and faces (Exp.2). Cats were presented with a photo of the familiar cat’s face on a laptop monitor after hearing the same cat’s name or another cat’s name called by the subject cat’s owner (Exp.1) or an experimenter (Exp.2). Half of the trials were in a congruent condition where the name and face matched, and half were in an incongruent (mismatch) condition. Results of Exp.1 showed that household cats paid attention to the monitor for longer in the incongruent condition, suggesting an expectancy violation effect; however, café cats did not. In Exp.2, cats living in larger human families were found to look at the monitor for increasingly longer durations in the incongruent condition. Furthermore, this tendency was stronger among cats that had lived with their human family for a longer time, although we could not rule out an effect of age. This study provides evidence that cats link a companion's name and corresponding face without explicit training.
