Abstract
As a social phenomenon in modern society, companion animals are gradually recognized as life partners or family members due to single-person households, low birth rates, and aging.In particular, due to structural changes in the family, there are fewer opportunities for communication and more people feel isolated or alienated. Therefore, this study attempts to verify the relationship between the effect of interaction with companion animals on self-esteem and subjective happiness. To this end, research hypotheses and surveys were developed based on literature research, and a total of 200 copies of data were collected and statistically analyzed to verify the hypothesis. As a result of the study, first, it was found that there was a correlation between interaction, self-esteem, and subjective happiness. Second, interaction and self-esteem were found to have a positive effect. Third, it was found that interaction had a positive effect on subjective happiness Fourth, it was found that self-esteem had a positive effect on subjective happiness. Finally, interaction has a significant effect on subjective happiness by mediating self-esteem. Through this study, the significance of this study was that the direction for the friendliness of raising companion animals was suggested by confirming the importance of the effect of interaction with companion animals on their self-esteem and subjective happiness. This will provide basic data on the importance of companion animal interaction as well as the importance of companion role in the life of companion animals, and the raising of desirable companion animals can increase human overall development and subjective happiness.
