Asinakukhanyela ukuba unxibelelwano olukhethekileyo luhlala lwenziwa phakathi kwenja kunye nabantu abahlala nayo. Yiyo loo nto amaxesha amaninzi sifumana ukufana okumangalisayo phakathi kwezinja kunye nabanini bazo. Ngayo yonke le nto, siyabona ukuba ithiyori esixelela loo nto inja ihambisa ulwazi ngathi yinyani.
Kwaye inja-ukuhambelana komntu esithethe ngaye kuneziphumo ezahlukileyo njengesiphumo. A) Ewe, isimilo salezi zilwanyana siphenjelelwa ngamandla sesethu, kwaye ngokuchaseneyo. Ungayichazanga into yokuba ukhetha ukukhetha isilwanyana sasekhaya okanye enye ithi ngathi. Oku kuboniswa kwizifundo ezininzi ezenziwa ziingcali ezithile.
Umzekelo ngulowo wenziwa sisayikholojisti URichard Wiseman, ngokweendlela ezahlukeneyo zokufuya izilwanyana ezinxulunyaniswa neeklasi ezithile zobuntu. Ikwabonisa ukuba abantu banika umlinganiswa ezinjeni zabo ezibonakalisa ubuntu babo. wenja yakhe ”, uyacacisa.
Olunye uphando lwenziwa yi Umbutho wezengqondo waseBritane, eqinisa umbono wokuba singabazi ubuntu bomntu ngenja yakhe, kuba olu phononongo luyangqina ukuba sikhetha izilwanyana ezifuywayo ezifana nathi. Kwakhona udibanisa iintlanga ezithile kunye nabalinganiswa abathile; Umzekelo, kukholelwa ukuba abantu abaphumayo baya kwiinja zeegusha ezinje ngeCollie okanye iJamani Shepherd, ngelixa abantu abazolileyo beya eLabrador okanye eGolden Retriever.
Isazi ngengqondo kwezentlalo uJonathan Haidt waya kude, esithi ikho ubudlelwane phakathi kwemascot yethu kunye nembono yethu yezopolitiko. Ngokutsho kwakhe, abantu abanenkululeko bathanda izinja ezifundileyo, ngelixa abo banolondolozo bekhetha izinja ezithobelayo nezinyanisekileyo.
Ngokwenyani, zonke ezi ngcamango ayizizo isayensi ngqo, kodwa asinakuyikhanyela inyani yokuba, ngokumisela ubudlelwane obusondeleyo nenja yethu, siyayiphembelela kwaye kungenjalo. Singagqiba kwelokuba kuyinyani ukuba inja ingabonakalisa ubuntu bethu ngohlobo lwayo, ibonakalise ukuba iyisilwanyana esikwaziyo ukusebenzisa uvelwano olungaqhelekanga.
