Alan Beck, an expert in human-animal relationship, and Nancy Edwards, a professor of nursing, are leading the animal-ass

14、isted study concerning the influence of robotic dogs on old peoples depression, physical activity, and life satisfaction. “No one will argue that an older person is better off being more active, challenged, or stimulated(刺激),” Edwards points out. “The problem is how we promote(使成为现实)that, especially
