SaveQuestion 2 (3 points)The first time my very intelligent Labrador retriever, Lilli, saw herself in a mirror, she barked at the puppy she saw in the reflection. But it didn't take her long to stop barking. Being a developmental psychologist, I was curious if she realized the puppy was her, so I devised an experiment to test if she had self-concept. While she was quietly seated in front of the mirror, my husband extended a fishing pole from behind her with a dog biscuit hanging over her head. Choose which response and explanation from below make the most sense.
Question 2 options:
If Lilli lunged for the biscuit in the mirror, that would prove she has self-concept.
If Lilli looked at my husband in the mirror's reflection, that would prove she has other-concept.
Assuming no noise was made, if Lilli looked up for the biscuit, it suggests she has some self-concept and understands that it is her in the mirror's reflection.
Assuming Lilli is at least 2 years old, it would be clear that she has self-concept, as this has been demonstrated routinely in experimental situations with dogs and cats of that age.
