摘要

研究了澳大利亚老年人养宠物与健康状况之间的关系。共有50名年龄在68-94岁(平均年龄78.6岁)的成年人在澳大利亚布里斯班的一家普通医疗诊所完成了一份关于宠物饲养实践、健康和社区资源以及爱好和兴趣的问卷。医生指出了应答者的主要医疗问题。研究发现，26名参与者目前养宠物，除3人外，其他人都曾养过宠物。狗是最受欢迎的宠物，有19名受访者目前养狗。8名受访者养猫，3人养笼养鸟，2人养家禽，2人养马，1人养山羊。一些受访者养了不止一只宠物和一种以上的宠物。养宠物的人和不养宠物的人在幸福感、生活满意度、抑郁程度、兴趣爱好、药物使用和医疗问题方面没有显著差异。(MM) (AgeLine数据库，版权所有1999 EBSCO Publishing, Inc.，版权所有)

Pet ownership and health status of elderly in the community

Examined the relationship between pet ownership and health status among older adults in Australia. A total of 50 adults aged 68-94 (mean age 78.6) attending a general medical practice in Brisbane, Australia, completed a questionnaire on pet-keeping practices, health and community resources, and hobbies and interests. The medical practitioner indicated the primary medical problem(s) of the respondents. It was found that 26 of the participants currently kept pets and that all but three had kept pets at some point in their lives. Dogs were the preferred pets, with 19 respondents currently owning dogs. Eight respondents owned cats, three owned caged birds, two kept poultry, two owned horses, and one owned a goat. Some of the respondents kept more than one pet and more than one type of pet. There were no significant differences between pet owners and nonowners in level of happiness, life satisfaction, depression, hobbies or interests, medication use, and medical problems.

期刊介绍： A vital forum for academic dialogue on human-animal relations, Anthrozoös is a quarterly, peer-reviewed journal that has enjoyed a distinguished history as a pioneer in the field since its launch in 1987. The key premise of Anthrozoös is to address the characteristics and consequences of interactions and relationships between people and non-human animals across areas as varied as anthropology, ethology, medicine, psychology, veterinary medicine and zoology. Articles therefore cover the full range of human–animal relations, from their treatment in the arts and humanities, through to behavioral, biological, social and health sciences.
