Resumo: The evaluation of the degree of attachment of owners to pets is an important resource to study the influence of the pets to different physical and psychosocial  factors to humans. The current study applied the LAPS (Lexington Attachment to Pets Scales) test to evaluate attachment degree of owners to their pets. The test was performed in 95 subjects, males and females from different age groups, in Minas Gerais and São Paulo state. Most of the questions were correlated to the total score (p < 0.0001). Women and elderly subjects had lower scores, demonstrating a greater degree of attachment when compared to males and  younger individuals, respectively. In conclusion, the age and gender differ to the degree of attachment. The use of negative questions in a test composed mostly by positive issues may inhibit the interviewer responses.

O presente trabalho empregou o teste LAPS (Lexington Attachment to Pets Scales) para a análise do grau de apego de proprietários com os seus cães e gatos. O teste foi aplicado em 95  indivíduos, dos sexos masculino e feminino de diferentes faixas etárias, dos estados de Minas Gerais e São Paulo. A maior parte das questões apresentou correlação com o escore total (p < 0,0001). As mulheres apresentaram menores escores quando  comparadas aos indivíduos do sexo masculino, assim como pessoas mais velhas em comparação aos indivíduos mais jovens. Concluiu-se que tanto o gênero como a faixa etária apresentam diferenças para o grau de apego. O emprego de questões negativas, em um teste composto em sua maior parte por questões positivas, pode inibir as respostas dos entrevistados.Universidade de São Paulo.
