  Title EQUINE SOCIAL INTELLIGENCE Type Journal Article
  Year (up) Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords  
  Abstract INTRODUCTION to the social intelligence tests

This document contains the result of adjusting 12 tests written for dogs to the sensory modes and size

of horses. Stanley Coren calls the tests “Canine IQ Tests,” but also says the tests are probably

measurements of “social intelligence.” Coren's book also contains the list of dog breeds ranked by

score on these tests. The technical, psychological definition of “intelligence” is not relevant to these

tests (the usual academic caveats about data and variables). Also, an animal that is very clever and is

not interested in interacting with humans will score low on these tests, so if your horse is a low scorer,

it may mean that people just are not interesting for him.

I am posting the tests because 1) my riding club thought they were fun when I showed them the video

record of the testing protocol and 2) the several horses tested thought they were fun. Of these horses,

my two (a German sport horse and a Morgan) became more alert in responding to their human

companion (me) after the tests were run....

  Title Auditory stimulation of the stabled equine; the effect of different music genres on behaviour Type Manuscript
  Year (up) Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords equine, behaviour, music, environmental enrichment, auditory  
  Abstract Having a radio playing during the daytime at some equine establishments is common practice, but few studies have investigated whether particular music genres could be enriching for stabled horses or whether they may be perceived as aversive. This study aimed to establish whether behavioural responses differed when exposed to musical genres (Classical, Country, Jazz and Rock) and when compared to a control (no music). Eight Thoroughbred geldings (age range 8-10 years, average 8.9 years) were exposed to four musical environments and the control environment (no music) and observed in their usual stable, using instantaneous focal sampling every thirty seconds according to a pre-determined ethogram. Each horse was exposed to each genre for an hour in total, at a time when there was no human traffic or interference on the yard. All horses had been stabled for three hours before the study began. The association between genres and behavioural frequencies recorded for each environment was tested using Fisher’s Exact test of association (P<0.01), IBM SPSS21. No statistically significant associations (P=1.0) were recorded between alert or relax behaviours in Country, Classical, and Control environments. Significant associations (P<0.001) between frequency of alert behaviours and Jazz and Rock environments were noted. The latter genres appeared the most aversive which may be due to fast tempo and minor key, especially in the Jazz piece used. Country and Classical genres were slow tempo with a major key and appeared to result in more restful behaviours than Jazz or Rock. Further research is needed to; assess whether music could be used as an enriching tool, and investigate equine emotional capabilities to understand the emotional effects of music. Future studies could also consider how music impacts upon the behaviour of the human handler and whether this influences equine behaviour.
