Our Animals Ourselves
Abstract
Although sociology has only recently turned to the study of animals, our society has long recognized their importance, whether asworkers to tow heavy trucks, friends to enjoy and play with, or protein to eat. Human relationships with animals started to change a century ago as technological advances ended our dependence on horses, industrialization of agricultural production replaced backyard farms, and urbanization encroached on the wilderness. Americans had fewer direct encounters with other animals, and those they did have were increasingly with pets or animals in zoos and circuses.

In the citing paper
“Given the array of factors involved in most human–animal relationships, it is not surprising that people relate to animals in very different ways that range from highly positive, affectionate and caring to highly negative, dysfunctional or abusive [7,43,58,59,66,67].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
