Create a statement of the problem (tells what the study is about and why we are doing it) for a hypothetical research study utilizing descriptive research methods for sexually abused children and pet therapy. The age group of the children participating in the study will be between 10-12 years old. There will be approximately 20-25 children in the study. The type of dogs used in the study will be Golden Retrievers since they are often used as therapy dogs due to their calm demeanor, gentle disposition, and friendliness to strangers.
