There is enough similarity to learn alot, but I agree with Venus and TheDragon, it is somewhat of a "no brainer" (no pun intended) to know that stressing/tramatizing young animals leads to an adult with problems/insecurities/higher levels of "sensitivities".

I have worked with "abused" horses, and while I can do alot for them, calm them down and teach them new skills they never forget their "abuse". However, they do get "attached to me" and often become "very loyal". I know they "appreciate" what I do for them, I have done it so much I am certain of it.
