什么是E-BARQ
E-BARQ 是悉尼大学的一项研究，调查马匹训练和管理如何与行为相互作用。随着时间的推移，该项目将为研究人员提供关于我们的培训和管理如何影响行为以及行为如何反过来影响马福利的宝贵信息。
马行为评估和研究问卷
马行为评估和研究问卷 (E-BARQ)：自古以来，马的行为以及马与人之间的联系一直是引起人们好奇和着迷的源泉。几个世纪以来积累的关于马的知识是有用的实践（从马匹的左侧接近马匹，使它们的反应稍弱）和未经证实的神话（例如栗色马特别难以驾驭的神话）的丰富组合。
这就是悉尼大学推出马行为评估和研究问卷 (E-BARQ) 的原因，这是一个持续的全球马行为数据库。

E-BARQ 的名人录
The study explores how horse training and management interact with behaviour. It will reveal invaluable information on how our training and management affect behaviour and how, in turn, behaviour affects horse welfare. Beyond the immediate and direct research outcomes, E-BARQ also has great benefits to horse owners, riders and trainers.
On completion of the questionnaire, contributors receive a graph that compares their horse with 1000’s of other horses across various different categories. They also receive a private dashboard where they can log each of their horses and view their E-BARQ results. This innovative tool is completely free of charge.
您的马匹成绩
该研究探讨了马匹训练和管理如何与行为相互作用。它将揭示关于我们的培训和管理如何影响行为以及行为如何反过来影响马福利的宝贵信息。除了直接和直接的研究成果外，E-BARQ 对马主、骑手和驯马师也有很大的好处。
完成问卷后，参与者会收到一张图表，将他们的马与 1000 匹不同类别的其他马进行比较。他们还会收到一个私人仪表板，在那里他们可以记录他们的每匹马并查看他们的 E-BARQ 结果。这个创新工具是完全免费的。
帮助匹配马匹和骑手
Horse owners can upload photographs to a custom-built online dashboard, recording their horse’s training progress over time. For the first time, they’ll also be able to compare their horse’s behaviour with that of other horses. The Share-&-Compare graphs will reveal attributes such as trainability, rideability, handling, compliance, boldness, and human social confidence.
立即使用 E-BARQ
马主可以将照片上传到定制的在线仪表板，记录他们的马随着时间的推移训练进度。他们还第一次能够将自己的马的行为与其他马的行为进行比较。分享与比较图表将揭示诸如可训练性、可乘坐性、操控性、合规性、大胆性和人类社会信心等属性。
