Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Psychiatry
  • Insomnia

His main research concerns Psychiatry, Insomnia, Anxiety, Depression and Shift work. His studies deal with areas such as Young adult and Circadian rhythm as well as Psychiatry. His Circadian rhythm research incorporates elements of Morning, Delayed sleep phase and Sleep in non-human animals.

His research integrates issues of Odds ratio, Sleep terror, Epidemiology, Polysomnography and Pediatrics in his study of Insomnia. Bjørn Bjorvatn usually deals with Depression and limits it to topics linked to Cross-sectional study and Risk factor. In his research, Marital status, Sleep Stages and Bedtime is intimately related to Gerontology, which falls under the overarching field of Shift work.

His most cited work include:

  • European guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of insomnia (435 citations)
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy vs Zopiclone for Treatment of Chronic Primary Insomnia in Older Adults A Randomized Controlled Trial (415 citations)
  • Individual differences in tolerance to shift work – A systematic review (270 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Psychiatry, Insomnia, Shift work, Physical therapy and Sleep in non-human animals. In the subject of general Psychiatry, his work in Anxiety, Sleep disorder and Mental health is often linked to Norwegian, thereby combining diverse domains of study. While the research belongs to areas of Anxiety, Bjørn Bjorvatn spends his time largely on the problem of Depression, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Logistic regression and Internal medicine.

His Insomnia research integrates issues from Odds ratio, Epidemiology, Cross-sectional study and Epworth Sleepiness Scale, Polysomnography. The concepts of his Shift work study are interwoven with issues in Audiology, Gerontology and Personality. His Physical therapy research incorporates themes from Randomized controlled trial and Actigraphy.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Psychiatry (41.71%)
  • Insomnia (43.32%)
  • Shift work (34.33%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Shift work (34.33%)
  • Norwegian (18.43%)
  • Peer review (7.83%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Shift work, Norwegian, Peer review, Insomnia and Depression. Bjørn Bjorvatn works mostly in the field of Shift work, limiting it down to topics relating to Rehabilitation and, in certain cases, Abdomen, as a part of the same area of interest. Insomnia is a primary field of his research addressed under Psychiatry.

His research in Psychiatry is mostly focused on Sleep disorder. The study incorporates disciplines such as Odds ratio, Internal medicine, Confidence interval, Population study and Anxiety in addition to Depression. As part of the same scientific family, Bjørn Bjorvatn usually focuses on Anxiety, concentrating on Clinical psychology and intersecting with Personality.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The European Academy for Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia: An initiative of the European Insomnia Network to promote implementation and dissemination of treatment. (26 citations)
  • The Short-Term Efficacy of an Unguided Internet-Based Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia: A Randomized Controlled Trial With a Six-Month Nonrandomized Follow-Up (16 citations)
  • The Prevalence of Insomnia Subtypes in Relation to Demographic Characteristics, Anxiety, Depression, Alcohol Consumption and Use of Hypnotics (13 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Internal medicine
  • Psychiatry
  • Disease

His primary areas of investigation include Shift work, Insomnia, Circadian rhythm, Morning and Audiology. His Shift work research includes themes of Rate ratio, Response rate, Sick leave and Registry study. His work carried out in the field of Insomnia brings together such families of science as Sleep in non-human animals, Depression, Affect and Pooled data.

His Circadian rhythm study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Family medicine, Delayed sleep phase, Adaptation and Sleep study. Bjørn Bjorvatn has included themes like Rehabilitation, Actigraphy, Abdomen, Abdominal pain and Shoulders in his Morning study. Bjørn Bjorvatn has researched Audiology in several fields, including Vigilance, Upon Awakening, Effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive performance, Impulsivity and Chronotype.
