Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Developmental psychology
  • Social psychology

Andrew P. King focuses on Cowbird, Molothrus ater ater, Zoology, Communication and Ecology. Social psychology, Social deprivation, Social environment and Developmental psychology are fields of study that intersect with his Cowbird study. Andrew P. King connects Molothrus ater ater with Sound production in his study.

His Zoology study which covers Bioassay that intersects with Animal Vocalizations, Auditory stimulation, Mating, Courtship and Seasonal breeder. His work on Vocal learning as part of general Communication study is frequently linked to Nature versus nurture, Unification and Environmental ethics, bridging the gap between disciplines. Andrew P. King merges many fields, such as Ecology and Species identification, in his writings.

His most cited work include:

  • Social interaction shapes babbling: Testing parallels between birdsong and speech (453 citations)
  • Female visual displays affect the development of male song in the cowbird. (284 citations)
  • Settling nature and nurture into an ontogenetic niche. (257 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Andrew P. King spends much of his time researching Developmental psychology, Cowbird, Zoology, Juvenile and Ecology. His Developmental psychology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cognitive psychology and Perception. His work in the fields of Subspecies and Animal Vocalizations overlaps with other areas such as Molothrus ater ater and Social experience.

His Juvenile research also works with subjects such as

  • Range most often made with reference to Animal communication,
  • Social relation, which have a strong connection to Language development. His research in the fields of Seasonal breeder, Courtship, Mating and Ecology overlaps with other disciplines such as Geographic variation. His work in the fields of Courtship, such as Courtship display, overlaps with other areas such as Context.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Developmental psychology (42.22%)
  • Cowbird (32.22%)
  • Zoology (26.67%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2020)?

  • Developmental psychology (42.22%)
  • Cowbird (32.22%)
  • Flock (8.89%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Andrew P. King mainly investigates Developmental psychology, Cowbird, Flock, Zoology and Ecology. Andrew P. King regularly links together related areas like Juvenile in his Developmental psychology studies. The Juvenile study combines topics in areas such as Imitation and Vocal learning.

His Cowbird study spans across into areas like Seasonal breeder, Sound production and Structural shift. His study in the field of Courtship display, Courtship and Subspecies is also linked to topics like Gerontology and Geography. His studies in Ecology integrate themes in fields like Social relation, Perception and Mechanism.

Between 2009 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Maternal Responsiveness and the Development of Directed Vocalizing in Social Interactions (72 citations)
  • Social Guidance of Vocal Learning by Female Cowbirds: Validating its Functional Significance (50 citations)
  • Dual Signaling during Mating in Brown-headed Cowbirds (Molothrus ater, Family Emberizidae/Icterinae) (38 citations)
