“Study: Cats are shaped by the owner’s personality,”
“Such a man, such a cat?”
“A study by Lincoln University indicates that there may be a correlation between the owner’s and animal’s personalities.”
“Cats are sometimes described as cool and independent, living her life in the background and not let themselves be influenced by human whims. But the picture of the cat soaring the integrity of the exception can be made something of a study by the uk’s Lincoln University, recently published in the scientific journal Plos One.”
“the Researchers warn in order to pull large switches on the study because it is conducted with the help of a web survey, where around 3 100 cat owners in mostly the Uk answered questions about their own and the cat’s behavior. They emphasise that further research is required, among other things, to exclude the possibility that cat owners simply choose a pet that is like them.”
“But in spite of the great nypan salt are signs that cats with more neurotically minded owners are more likely to feel worse both mentally and physically, according to the study.”
“the Owner with neurotic personality traits responded in a greater extent that the cat suffered from disease, was overweight, that it showed stressrelaterat sjukdomsbeteende or aggressive and restless behavior. It was also more common in the group kept their cat indoors.”
“Similar to other research.”
“As a logical continuation, the researchers could see a relationship between the owner and calm personality traits and normal-weight cats with less aggressive and avoidance behaviour. Owners with an outgoing and open personality also seems, generally, to have cats that feel better.”
“the Authors behind the study writes that the outcome in a certain extent, mirrors existing research on the impact of a parent’s personality has on a child, especially on the point that cat owners with a more neurotic personality seems to take care of their pets in a more overprotective and troubled way.”
“Around 3 100 cat owners, mainly in the Uk, answered questions about themselves and their cat during the period of June–July 2016. The people were found through the wanted ads on the internet and at veterinärmottagningar.”
“92% of the participants were women. 95% of the participants answered in such a way that the results could be used in the study. The majority were in the age group of 25 to 54.”
“the Study was conducted by researchers at Lincoln University in the united kingdom, and published in the scientific journal Plos One.”
