Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Developmental psychology
  • Cognition
  • Psychiatry

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Developmental psychology, Intervention, Motor skill, Clinical psychology and Activities of daily living. Her Developmental psychology research incorporates elements of Motor coordination, Perception and Psychomotor learning. Cheryl Missiuna combines subjects such as Coaching and Cognition with her study of Intervention.

Her Motor skill study combines topics in areas such as Audiology and Set. Her Clinical psychology research focuses on subjects like Occupational therapy, which are linked to Association. Psychological intervention, Gross motor skill, Mental health and Self-concept is closely connected to Academic achievement in her research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Activities of daily living.

Her most cited work include:

  • Developmental coordination disorder: A review and update (224 citations)
  • A trajectory of troubles: parents' impressions of the impact of developmental coordination disorder. (161 citations)
  • A pilot trial of a cognitive treatment for children with developmental coordination disorder (155 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Developmental psychology, Clinical psychology, Occupational therapy, Intervention and Motor skill. Her Developmental psychology research includes elements of Self-efficacy, Perception, Motor coordination and Psychomotor learning. In the field of Clinical psychology, her study on Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder overlaps with subjects such as Handwriting.

Her study in Occupational therapy is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Set and Medical education. Her studies deal with areas such as Psychological intervention, Cognitive psychology and Cognition as well as Intervention. Her work deals with themes such as Rehabilitation, Physical therapy and Motor learning, which intersect with Psychological intervention.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Developmental psychology (36.11%)
  • Clinical psychology (23.61%)
  • Occupational therapy (18.75%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Medical education (15.28%)
  • Developmental psychology (36.11%)
  • Physical therapy (16.67%)

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

Cheryl Missiuna mainly focuses on Medical education, Developmental psychology, Physical therapy, Clinical psychology and Motor skill. Cheryl Missiuna has researched Medical education in several fields, including Psychological intervention, Inclusion, Occupational therapy and Coaching. Cheryl Missiuna is interested in Communication Aids for Disabled, which is a field of Developmental psychology.

Her work on Physical fitness as part of general Physical therapy research is often related to Concussion, Injury prevention, Knowledge translation and Evidence-based practice, thus linking different fields of science. In her study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Clinical psychology, Comorbidity is strongly linked to Anxiety. Her study in the field of Movement assessment also crosses realms of Cohort.

Between 2014 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • A Balanced Protocol for Return to School for Children and Youth Following Concussive Injury (52 citations)
  • Best Practice Recommendations for the Development, Implementation, and Evaluation of Online Knowledge Translation Resources in Rehabilitation (38 citations)
  • Best practice principles for management of children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD): results of a scoping review. (38 citations)

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

  • Cognition
  • Developmental psychology
  • Psychiatry

Her primary scientific interests are in Physical therapy, Developmental psychology, Injury prevention, Suicide prevention and Concussion. Her Physical therapy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Physical health and Affect. Her Developmental psychology research incorporates themes from Psychological intervention and Inclusion.

The Psychological intervention study combines topics in areas such as Young adult, Intervention and Health education. Her study in the field of Post concussion and Return to play is also linked to topics like Family medicine, Return to activity and Clinical expertise. Her Motor skill research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cognitive orientation, Cognition, Cerebral palsy and Rating scale.
