“…2) Other: Finally, six studies do not fit into any of the previous categories and are rated in the lowest two OCEBM levels. Three of these, OCEBM level 4 (Cassidy, Webb, McKeown, & Stiles, 1995;Nordgren & Engstrom, 2014b;Shalev & Ben-Mordehai, 1996) address staff perceptions of AAI, quality of life, and acceptance of a snake as an AAI animal. The remaining three studies, level 5 (Kendziorski, & Treacy, 1999;Strickland & Davidson, 2016;Yates, 1987), examine feelings toward resident pets, factors predicting interest in AAI, and perceptions of benefits from AAI.…”

“…Direct contact opportunities and message-based reinforcement were applied in a study on the use of native snakes as teaching tools with disabled children, adolescents with behavior problems, and the elderly (Shalev & Ben-Mordehai, 1996). Following a structured presentation during an initial visit where a snake was taken out of its cage and offered for touching or holding, a strong affiliation for snake interaction was found (Shalev & Ben-Mordehai, 1996). When asked to choose among a snake, rabbit, and dog, a significant proportion of all children chose the snake.…”

“…When asked to choose among a snake, rabbit, and dog, a significant proportion of all children chose the snake. Given these results, the authors suggested that pet snakes be integrated into animal visitation programs with populations of varying ages and abilities (Shalev & Ben-Mordehai, 1996).

Στο Βυζάντιο αναφορές στην καθημερινή ζωή δείχνουν ότι τα κατοικίδια ζώα ήταν μέρος της οικογενειακής ζωής των κατοίκων και ο σημαντικός ρόλος τους αποδεικνύεται και μέσα από τις τελετές προς τιμή τους στις ημέρες εορτασμού των Προστατών Αγίων, όπως του Αγίου Μάμα και του Αγίου Μόδεστου (239) .…”
