Isayensi ifakazela lokho abanikazi bezilwane asebekukholelwa kudala: Izinja ziyakuqonda esikuzwayo. Ngokuqondile, izinja ziyakwazi ukubona umehluko phakathi kobuso bomuntu obujabule nobuthukuthele, ucwaningo olushicilelwe ku-Current Biology luphakamisa.
Ucwaningo lokuqala olukhombisa ngokusobala ukuthi izinja ziyazwela kusimo sobuso bethu, kusho umdidiyeli uLudwig Huber, Inhloko yengqondo yokuqhathanisa e-Messerli Research Institute eNyuvesi Yezilwane Zezilwane, E-Vienna.
Esifundweni sase-Austrian, 20 izinja ezifuywayo zezinhlobo nobukhulu obuhlukahlukene zafundiswa ukudlala umdlalo wekhompyutha ngochungechunge lokuzivocavoca. Kwesokuqala, izinja zaboniswa izikrini zokuthinta ezimbili, eyodwa inendingilizi enye inesikwele. Ngokuzama nangephutha, bafunde ukuthi ukuphathwa kuzovela uma bekhetha isibalo esifanele sejometri.
Ishumi nanye kwe 20 izinja zikwazile ukubamba imithetho yomdlalo futhi zifinyelele esigabeni esilandelayo, lapho baboniswa khona izithombe zobuso. Ingxenye yezinja yaklonyeliswa ngokukhetha inkulumo ejabulisayo kanye nohhafu ngokukhetha inkulumo ethukuthele. Ukubamba okuthakazelisayo: izinja zaboniswa kuphela ingxenye engenhla noma ingxenye engezansi yobuso.
Kwakulula ukufundisa izinja ukukhetha inkulumo ejabulisayo kunentukuthelo, ephakamisa ukuthi izinja ziyayiqonda ngempela incazelo yale nkulumo, Kusho uHuber.
Izinja ezaziqeqeshelwe ukubona ukubonakaliswa kwentukuthelo noma injabulo engxenyeni engenhla yobuso zazikwazi ukubona inkulumo efanayo lapho ziboniswa ingxenye engezansi kuphela., futhi ngokuphambene, Kusho uHuber, enezela “okuwukuphela kwencazelo engenzeka ukuthi bakhumbula ngenkumbulo yokuphila kwansuku zonke ukuthi ubuso bomuntu bubukeka kanjani lapho bejabule noma bethukuthele.”
