Human-Animal Interaction

Currently, I major in neuroscience and psychology at the University of Nebraska in Omaha. I am always interested in various perspectives on human-animal interaction, including psychology, sociology, personal and ethical perspectives. From a psychological point of view I have studied the importance of animal support therapy in various clinical conditions such as post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). We also examined the interaction between humans and animals in cases of abuse of violent criminals and related animals.

Interaction between humans and animals The development of a relatively new field known as "research on human-animal interaction" has played a major role in understanding the modern relationship between humans and companion animals. Scientists in this field systematically deal with relationships between humans and animals and deviate significantly from pure philosophical and emotional approaches to animals as human partners. This field has undergone substantial progress and the World Health Organization (WHO) provides some support for treatment by animals (11). However, there is concern about the welfare of animals used for treatment in the clinical setting. Problems arise: Do animals feel the same when people feel comforted through active interaction with animals? Or are they merely "tools" in this situation, are they not good for themselves?

Through advances in scientific research focused on the interaction between humans and animals, we know that this association will bring a lot of benefits to the people and animals involved. Human Animal Bond Institute (HABRI) is a non-profit organization that funds research on pet's health benefits and human-animal interactions. HABRI 's vision is the basic element of human - animal relationship - pet - human mutual benefit - human health, quality of life, and physical and mental health.
