We study what animal-assisted therapy (AAT) actually does to stress and wellbeing at work. It's been used in clinics for years, but almost nobody has measured how it plays out on the job — where the effects usually get described in stories, not numbers. We bring standardized, repeatable methods to that gap, so good programs can finally be judged, compared, and funded on real evidence.
The 10-item Perceived Stress Scale — a widely used, validated measure of perceived stress that anchors our surveys.
A 20-item instrument that incorporates the validated PSS-10 with custom items designed for on-site animal-assisted therapy programs. Undergoing ongoing refinement.
It only takes a few minutes, and every response makes the evidence stronger.
