Kenneth Joel Shapiro (August 24, 1943 - ) is an American clinical psychologist, Human-Animal Studies (HAS) scholar, and career animal advocate[1]. Shapiro cofounded Psychologists for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PSYeta), a nonprofit organization devoted to the critique of lab-based animal research. In 2007, PSYeta[2] morphed into the Animals & Society Institute (ASI), a think tank on human-animal relationships and issues related to the treatment of nonhuman animals.
Shapiro is a major contributor to the genesis, scope, and development of the inter-disciplinary field of HAS[3][4]; he is the founding editor of Society and Animals[5], the cofounding editor of the Journal of Applied Animal Welfare Science[6], and the founding editor of the Brill Human-Animal Studies book series[7]. Prompted by the body of research establishing a link between animal abuse and violence against humans, Shapiro developed psychological interventions for the assessment and treatment of juveniles and adults who abuse animals[8][9]. The AniCare Model of Treatment for Animal Abuse is regarded as "the first published intervention for adults that engage in animal cruelty.”[8] “AniCare Child…. is generally considered to be the gold standard for treating this behavior [animal abuse].”[9]
