More interesting findings challenging the #peteffect:
Among 286 people with mental illness, pets were not associated with wellbeing, depression, anxiety, or loneliness after controlling for covariates. Human-animal bond and type of pet were also not associated with any outcomes.

[Dr. Kerri Rodriguez @KerriRodriguez0]

Even though human-animal interaction research has exploded in recent years, the pathway to this career is still confusing and unclear.

Great new paper by @PhyllisErdman @megankmueller @KatyJSchroeder @lyahart advises mentors/students on where to start!

@herzoghal This is so disappointing .. completely disregards the studies that indicate less than positive effects especially for isolated and/or chronically ill individuals.
