动物辅助干预研究进展的可视化分析

Advance in animal-assisted intervention:a visualized analysis

目的分析近10年动物辅助干预的研究进展,了解研究热点和发展趋势。方法检索Web of Science核心合集数据库2011年至2021年发表的动物辅助干预相关文献,采用CiteSpace软件对国家/地区、机构、作者、被引期刊、被引文献、关键词进行可视化分析。结果共纳入文献607篇,发文量逐年递增;美国(230篇)、意大利(65篇)、英国(45篇)发文量排名前列;发文最多的机构是美国普渡大学(20篇)。高产作者以Santaniello A(13篇)为代表。关键节点文献主要是系统综述和随机对照试验;动物辅助治疗、辅助犬等为高频关键词,高中心性关键词20个,突现关键词16个。研究热点主要包括阿尔茨海默病、抑郁症、儿童、孤独症等。疾病管理和作业疗法可能是未来研究的趋势。结论动物辅助干预目前主要应用于心理干预,可能会被纳入作业疗法范畴。

Objective To analyze the hotspots and development of researches on animal-assisted intervention in the past ten years.Methods The researches on animal-assisted intervention from 2011 to 2021 were retrieved from the Web of Science core database,and analyzed the countries/regions,institutions,authors,cited journals,cited literature and keywords using CiteSpace.Results A total of 607 researches were included.The researches increased with years,while United States(230),Italy(65)and the United Kingdom(45)were the top three in the number of publications;Purdue University published the most researches(20);and Santaniello A,etc.were the high-producing authors.The key nodes of literature were mainly systematic reviews and randomized controlled trials.Animal-assisted therapy and dogs were highfrequency keywords,with 20 keywords of high centrality and 16 keywords of strongest bursting.Hotspots focused on Alzheimer's disease,depression,children,autism.Disorder and occupational therapy might be the new topics in the future.Conclusion The animal-assisted intervention has been mainly used as a healthcare in psychology,and may be an approach of occupational therapy.
