Animals as a therapeutic modality: A curriculum model for occupational therapy.
Latella, Donna M.

Animals as a therapeutic modality: A curriculum model for occupational therapy. - 226 p.

Mentor: Robert Kirschmann.

Thesis (Ed.D.)--University of Bridgeport, 2003.

This dissertation addressed the use of animals as a therapeutic modality within occupational therapy practice. Much information is available in the literature on the history of the human-animal bond, the benefits of using animals as a therapeutic modality, as well as the link of the modality to occupational therapy theory and clinical practice. Although, there are limited research studies involving occupational therapists and the use of animals as a therapeutic modality. This information led to the inquiry as to whether, or not, occupational therapy programs are teaching this topic within their curriculum.

520 $a This dissertation addressed the use of animals as a therapeutic modality within occupational therapy practice. Much information is available in the literature on the history of the human-animal bond, the benefits of using animals as a therapeutic modality, as well as the link of the modality to occupational therapy theory and clinical practice. Although, there are limited research studies involving occupational therapists and the use of animals as a therapeutic modality. This information led to the inquiry as to whether, or not, occupational therapy programs are teaching this topic within their curriculum.
520 $a Specifically, quantitative and qualitative analysis were used in order to survey and interview, occupational therapy faculty in accredited entry-level master's degree programs. The results of this research contributed to the culminating project of a curriculum model on the use of animals as a therapeutic modality in occupational therapy.
520 $a This study found that very few occupational therapy programs surveyed are teaching this topic within their curriculum. Few surveyed faculty are interested in this topic. Interviewed subjects, although, appear to have an interest in animals which has begun before entering the profession. Many students are interested in this topic and are choosing to learn more about it through the use of assignments which offer choice, such as service learning, volunteering, presentations, and research projects.
520 $a Certification Pet Partner Team workshops are available, such as through the Delta Society (2000), although these are designed for anyone who is an interested animal handler. These workshops are very general in nature and do not directly link the practice of occupational therapy intervention and animals.
520 $a Because of the above findings, the curriculum model created for this dissertation includes a syllabus for an elective course on the use of animals as a therapeutic modality, as well as assignments/activities which may be included in existing curricula.
520 $a Further research is needed specifically by occupational therapists, in order to identify outcomes of using this modality, further educate faculty and spark interest in this topic, not only because of its therapeutic value, but also due to high student interest.
