Animal-assisted interventions involve the use of animals in various therapeutic and educational settings to improve the physical, emotional, and social well-being of individuals. These interventions can include activities such as animal-assisted therapy, where trained animals work with a licensed therapist to achieve specific therapeutic goals, and animal-assisted activities, where animals provide comfort and companionship in settings such as hospitals or nursing homes. Research in this area explores the benefits of interacting with animals on human health and well-being, as well as the mechanisms through which these interactions have a positive impact. Studies have shown that animal-assisted interventions can reduce stress, anxiety, and depression, improve social skills and communication, and enhance overall quality of life for individuals of all ages.
