with schizophrenia. The investigators will recruit 40 patients with schizophrenia in
psychiatric ward randomised into AAT group and control group. AAT group will complete the
12-week program. This study contains two assessment sessions before and after intervention,

Animal-assisted therapy (AAT) can be helpful to improve the outcomes of psychiatric and
emotional symptoms, physical activeness, social skills, well-beings in patients with physical
and mental illness and the elderly.
The study aims to assess the applications and outcomes of psychiatric symptoms, social
skills, cognitive function, well-beings, emotional status and physical fitness of AAT program
applied to middle-aged and older patients with chronic schizophrenia.
The investigators will recruit 40 patients with chronic schizophrenia who were admitted to
day care ward and rehabilitation ward, and conduct a randomized, controlled study. 40
patients will be stratified by the ward into AAT group and control group. AAT group will
complete the 12-week program. This study contains two assessment sessions completed within
one week before and after 12-week program. Subjects will be evaluated by the PANSS, ACIS,
MoCA-T, CHI, DASS‐21, CST, TUG and 5MWT in both sessions. Statistical analysis is examined
using paired t-test to see whether there is a significant difference (based on p‐value)
between the scores of two assessment sessions in the AAT and control group, and using
independent t-test to see whether there is a significant difference in the change scores of
two assessment sessions between the 2 groups.
