Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Cognition
  • Internal medicine
  • Developmental psychology

His primary areas of study are Developmental psychology, Cognition, Cognitive psychology, Foster care and Psychiatry. Charles A. Nelson works in the field of Developmental psychology, focusing on Child development in particular. Charles A. Nelson has included themes like Competence, Perception and Electroencephalography in his Cognition study.

Recognition memory is closely connected to Audiology in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Electroencephalography. His studies in Cognitive psychology integrate themes in fields like Social psychology, Memory development, Facial recognition system, Cognitive science and Childhood memory. Charles A. Nelson combines subjects such as Intervention, Birth weight, Randomized controlled trial and Institutionalisation with his study of Foster care.

His most cited work include:

  • The NimStim set of facial expressions: Judgments from untrained research participants (2323 citations)
  • Inequality in early childhood: risk and protective factors for early child development (916 citations)
  • Handbook of Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience (687 citations)

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

His main research concerns Developmental psychology, Cognition, Autism, Foster care and Electroencephalography. While the research belongs to areas of Developmental psychology, Charles A. Nelson spends his time largely on the problem of Event-related potential, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Stimulus. His research integrates issues of Visual perception, Perception and Cognitive psychology in his study of Cognition.

He is involved in the study of Autism that focuses on Autism spectrum disorder in particular. Charles A. Nelson has researched Autism spectrum disorder in several fields, including Audiology and Endophenotype. His research integrates issues of Intervention, Randomized controlled trial, Clinical psychology and Psychosocial in his study of Foster care.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Developmental psychology (51.47%)
  • Cognition (29.41%)
  • Autism (23.66%)

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

  • Cognition (29.41%)
  • Autism spectrum disorder (23.66%)
  • Developmental psychology (51.47%)

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

Charles A. Nelson mainly investigates Cognition, Autism spectrum disorder, Developmental psychology, Electroencephalography and Autism. His Cognition research includes elements of Pediatrics, Intellectual disability and Clinical psychology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Biomarker, Familial risk, Clinical trial and Audiology.

His research in Audiology focuses on subjects like Neural correlates of consciousness, which are connected to Stimulus, Visual perception, Precuneus and Cognitive psychology. His Developmental psychology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Psychosocial, Foster care and Intervention. His Electroencephalography research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Neurodevelopmental disorder, Feature selection, Cognitive neuroscience and Association.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Critical period regulation across multiple timescales. (40 citations)
  • How Early Experience Shapes Human Development: The Case of Psychosocial Deprivation. (36 citations)
  • How Early Experience Shapes Human Development: The Case of Psychosocial Deprivation. (36 citations)

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

  • Cognition
  • Internal medicine
  • Neuroscience

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cognition, Electroencephalography, Psychosocial, Audiology and Autism. Charles A. Nelson has included themes like Association and Cohort in his Cognition study. As a part of the same scientific family, Charles A. Nelson mostly works in the field of Electroencephalography, focusing on Longitudinal study and, on occasion, Physical medicine and rehabilitation.

The Psychosocial study combines topics in areas such as Context, Developmental psychology, Child development, Poverty and Malnutrition. In his works, he conducts interdisciplinary research on Developmental psychology and Long lasting. Charles A. Nelson studies Autism spectrum disorder which is a part of Autism.
