Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Cognition
  • Artificial intelligence
  • Cognitive psychology

His scientific interests lie mostly in Cognitive psychology, Stimulus, Visual perception, Communication and Cognition. In general Cognitive psychology, his work in Cued speech is often linked to Spatial organization linking many areas of study. His Stimulus research includes themes of Developmental psychology, Fixation point, Audiology and Fixation.

His Visual perception research also works with subjects such as

  • Vigilance which connect with Visual field,
  • Facilitation that intertwine with fields like Discrimination learning and Reading. He has included themes like Visual spatial attention, Choice reaction time, Neuroscience and Artificial intelligence in his Communication study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Electroencephalography, Dyslexia and Information processing in addition to Cognition.

His most cited work include:

  • Reorienting attention across the horizontal and vertical meridians: evidence in favor of a premotor theory of attention. (1493 citations)
  • Attention and Performance 15: Conscious and Nonconscious Information Processing (573 citations)
  • Brain damage: neglect disrupts the mental number line. (571 citations)

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

Carlo Umiltà mainly focuses on Cognitive psychology, Stimulus, Communication, Cognition and Audiology. His Cognitive psychology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Social psychology, Neglect, Visual perception, Perception and Task. His Stimulus study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Cued speech.

His studies in Communication integrate themes in fields like Artificial intelligence and Pattern recognition. His Cognition study typically links adjacent topics like Cognitive science. His studies deal with areas such as Developmental psychology and Visual field as well as Audiology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cognitive psychology (44.92%)
  • Stimulus (26.89%)
  • Communication (26.56%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2020)?

  • Cognitive psychology (44.92%)
  • Cognition (25.90%)
  • Simon effect (18.03%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cognitive psychology, Cognition, Simon effect, Stimulus and Communication. His Cognitive psychology study incorporates themes from Neglect, Saccadic masking, Social psychology, Perception and Task. His work carried out in the field of Cognition brings together such families of science as Brain activity and meditation, Neuroimaging and Cognitive science.

His study in Simon effect is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Stimulus–response model and Geometry. His work on Right visual field as part of general Stimulus study is frequently connected to Word learning and Negativity effect, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. As a member of one scientific family, Carlo Umiltà mostly works in the field of Communication, focusing on Mental representation and, on occasion, Time travel.

Between 2010 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • The use of transcranial magnetic stimulation in cognitive neuroscience: A new synthesis of methodological issues (233 citations)
  • When time is space: evidence for a mental time line. (216 citations)
  • Computer-based attention-demanding testing unveils severe neglect in apparently intact patients. (43 citations)

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

  • Cognition
  • Artificial intelligence
  • Neuroscience

Cognitive psychology, Cognition, Neglect, Audiology and Neuropsychology are his primary areas of study. His Cognitive psychology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Number line, Saccadic masking, Perception and Numerical cognition. Carlo Umiltà interconnects Communication, Nonverbal communication, Brain mapping and Electroencephalography in the investigation of issues within Cognition.

His Neglect research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Developmental psychology, Rehabilitation and Neuropsychological assessment. His Audiology research incorporates themes from Luminance, Brightness discrimination, Hue discrimination, Hue and Chromatic scale. The Neuropsychology study combines topics in areas such as Physical medicine and rehabilitation, Spatial contextual awareness, Interval, Bisection and Neurocognitive.
