Resumé

Increasing awareness of the co-occurrence of animal abuse
and other forms of violence has resulted in important changes
in policy and practice in the United States. This article reviews
the empirical evidence of the relationship between animal
abuse and antisocial behavior, describes the policies that have
been implemented in response to these findings, and discusses
the importance of identifying and intervening with people who
abuse animals. AniCare, the only published intervention for
people who display animal abuse behavior, is described along
with other interventions that may be warranted based on the
severity and circumstances of the animal abuse issue.

Ophavsret er tidsskriftets og forfatternes. Det er gældende praksis, at artikler publiceret i Psyke & Logos, som efterfølgende oversættes til andet sprog, af forfatteren frit kan publiceres i internationale tidsskrifter, dog således at det ved reference fremgår, at den oversatte artikel har et forlæg i en dansksproget version i Psyke & Logos. Artikler kan frit deles og linkes til på forsknings- og undervisningsnetværk (så som Blackboard). Link foretrækkes, fordi det giver oplysning om brug af tidsskriftets artikler.
