Is public perception of epilepsy in dogs more favorable than in humans? Context: With the use of YouTube™, this study provides results on both the demographics and public perception for a sample of videos of canine epilepsy. A random sample of 150 videos was collected, the uploader description was recorded, and viewers' comments were coded according to their emotional and informational content. More comments were found to be sympathetic than derogatory, and there were more information-providing than information-seeking comments. The number of sympathetic comments was found to correlate positively with the number of derogatory comments, and the number of information-providing comments correlated positively with the number of information-seeking comments.

This highlights the potential future use of YouTube in investigating public views as well as in informing and educating. Final Decision: yes
