Human–animal connections: Recent findings on the anthrozoology of cruelty
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 29 (3):230-231 (2006)
| Abstract | Recent findings in anthrozoology – the study of human–animal interactions – shed light on psychological and social aspects of cruelty. Here we briefly discuss four areas that connect animal cruelty and cruelty directed toward humans: (1) voices of perpetrators and their audiences, (2) gender differences in cruelty, (3) cruelty as play, and (4) the putative relationship between animal abuse and interpersonal violence. | |||||||||
