Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Ecology
  • Endocrinology

Bjarne O. Braastad mainly focuses on Animal science, Stimulus, Animal-assisted therapy, Prenatal stress and Plumage. His Animal science study combines topics in areas such as Carnivore and Predator. His Stimulus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Food deprivation and Dairy cattle, Norwegian Red.

His Animal-assisted therapy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Feather pecking, Pecking order and Feather. His Prenatal stress research includes themes of Hydrocortisone, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Animal Welfare. He interconnects Veterinary medicine, Weight gain and Feeding behavior in the investigation of issues within Plumage.

His most cited work include:

  • Effects of prenatal stress on behaviour of offspring of laboratory and farmed mammals (132 citations)
  • Animal-assisted therapy with farm animals for persons with psychiatric disorders: effects on self-efficacy, coping ability and quality of life, a randomized controlled trial (121 citations)
  • Melanin-based skin spots reflect stress responsiveness in salmonid fish. (107 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Bjarne O. Braastad focuses on Animal-assisted therapy, Animal science, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and HUBzero. His Animal-assisted therapy research incorporates themes from Mental health, Animal Welfare and Anxiety. His Animal science research includes elements of Veterinary medicine, Stimulus and Plumage.

His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Fetus, Prenatal stress and Lagopus. Prenatal stress is a subfield of Offspring that Bjarne O. Braastad investigates. Bjarne O. Braastad studied HUBzero and Gestation that intersect with Morning.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Animal-assisted therapy (36.07%)
  • Animal science (31.15%)
  • Internal medicine (22.95%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2015)?

  • Animal-assisted therapy (36.07%)
  • Psychiatry (9.84%)
  • Animal welfare (19.67%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Bjarne O. Braastad mainly investigates Animal-assisted therapy, Psychiatry, Animal welfare, Anxiety and Self-efficacy. Animal-assisted therapy is frequently linked to HUBzero in his study. As part of the same scientific family, Bjarne O. Braastad usually focuses on Psychiatry, concentrating on Clinical psychology and intersecting with Pet therapy.

His work deals with themes such as Psychological intervention, Biological hazard and Animal feed, which intersect with Animal welfare. The concepts of his Anxiety study are interwoven with issues in Mental health, Randomized controlled trial and Depression. His research investigates the connection between Self-efficacy and topics such as Social support that intersect with issues in Self-esteem and Persistence.

Between 2010 and 2015, his most popular works were:

  • Animal-Assisted Therapy with Farm Animals for Persons with Psychiatric Disorders: Effects on Anxiety and Depression, a Randomized Controlled Trial (54 citations)
  • Equine-assisted activities and the impact on perceived social support, self-esteem and self-efficacy among adolescents – an intervention study (45 citations)
  • Farm animal-assisted intervention: relationship between work and contact with farm animals and change in depression, anxiety, and self-efficacy among persons with clinical depression. (42 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Internal medicine
  • Ecology
  • Endocrinology

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Psychiatry, Anxiety, Intervention, Animal-assisted therapy and Self-efficacy. His studies deal with areas such as Adult patients, Randomized controlled trial, Treatment and control groups and Depression as well as Anxiety. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Social support and Self-esteem.

His study in Animal-assisted therapy is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Clinical trial, Dairy cattle, Coping, Mental health and HUBzero. His study brings together the fields of Clinical psychology and Self-efficacy.
