English Definition
"A non-pharmacological intervention that uses human–animal interactions to support emotional well-being, stress reduction, and therapeutic outcomes; a foundational concept informing the design of pet robots and VR animal companions."
用法说明 · 针对中文母语者
中文译为'动物辅助治疗',强调'辅助'而非替代药物;AAT 多见于跨学科 HCI、健康设计与福祉研究语境。
常见错误
- ·简译为'动物治疗'或'动物疗法'丢失'辅助'含义
- ·与 'pet therapy' 视为完全同义
