RESUMO
O artigo problematiza conhecidos estudos conduzidos com animais, assim como a versão segundo a qual os resultados obtidos são enviesados pela subjetividade do investigador. A partir de reflexões acerca das práticas de pesquisa, considera-se que os animais são bons modelos para as investigações sobre seres humanos. Eles podem ensinar muito a respeito de nós mesmos, desde que não negligenciemos o modo como compreendem os nossos questionamentos e saibamos a que questão de pesquisa eles, de fato, respondem.
ABSTRACT
The article discusses known studies conducted with animals, as well as the version in which the results acquired are biased by researcher's subjectivity. Following the reflections on the research practices, we can consider the animals good models to the investigation about Human beings. They can teach a lot about ourselves, since we have not neglected the way to make them understand our questions and we should know which question, indeed, they answer.
