The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Developmental psychology, Communication, Social learning, Social psychology and Social relation.
His Developmental psychology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Zoology, Mate choice, Animal science and Quail.
In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Communication, Observational learning and Animal ethology is strongly linked to Imitation.
His Social learning study incorporates themes from Cognitive psychology, Affect, Stimulus, Social environment and Social influence.
His work on Conformity as part of general Social psychology research is frequently linked to Individual learning and Food choice, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.
As part of the same scientific family, he usually focuses on Social relation, concentrating on Novelty and intersecting with Aggression, Genetic transmission and Natural selection.
His most cited work include:
- Social learning in animals : the roots of culture (721 citations)
- Social learning : psychological and biological perspectives (567 citations)
- Social influences on foraging in vertebrates: causal mechanisms and adaptive functions. (535 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Bennett G. Galef mostly deals with Developmental psychology, Social learning, Social psychology, Zoology and Communication.
His Developmental psychology study combines topics in areas such as Social relation, Coturnix japonica, Quail, Demography and Feeding behavior.
His Quail research focuses on Mating and how it relates to Reproduction.
His Feeding behavior study which covers Food intake that intersects with Animal science.
As a part of the same scientific family, Bennett G. Galef mostly works in the field of Social learning, focusing on Imitation and, on occasion, Observational learning.
