.quot; Most of what we hear about are these anecdotal examples. It's about dogs and children. "
Griffin is a co-author of Animals in Our Lives: Human-Animal Interaction. Friends co authored a book called "the animals in our lives: the interaction between humans and animals exists in families, communities and treatment situations", and one of the authors, Tian grant, an autistic supporter and an animal scientist, emphasizes how animals help patients with self closure.
A 2004 study showed assistance dogs could help autistic children learn about. Griffin pointed out that a survey in 2004 showed that helping dogs can help autistic children learn to stand, feel and need. Meanwhile, a survey published in 2010 also published a neuropsychological endocrinology article on how dogs affect the psychology of autistic children.
The study measured the salivary levels of cortisol, a stress hormone. In a study of autistic children, they tested their saliva cortisol (a stress hormone) in three times: when they were used to serve dogs, with the service dogs, and after the dog was sent away for a period of time. The experiment showed that the content of these three times was different.
The researchers worked with the MIRA Foundation, which provides free service. ASD..Quot;
the Mira Foundation's researchers have provided a message that free service dogs have special help to humans: the introduction of helper dogs can reduce the content of endothelia and reduce the destructive behavior of autistic children.
