Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Cognition
  • Social psychology
  • Developmental psychology

Developmental psychology, Preference, Audiology, Foot and Laterality are her primary areas of study. Clare Porac combines topics linked to Stress with her work on Developmental psychology. Clare Porac has researched Stress in several fields, including Stressor, Cognition and Sensory system.

Her Preference study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Lateral dominance and Footedness. Her Audiology study incorporates themes from Individual difference and Sensation. Her Foot research incorporates themes from Concordance and Sample.

Her most cited work include:

  • Lateral preferences and human behavior (633 citations)
  • Sensation and Perception (446 citations)
  • The dominant eye. (312 citations)

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

Her primary areas of study are Developmental psychology, Preference, Cognitive psychology, Laterality and Illusion. Her studies in Developmental psychology integrate themes in fields like Lateralization of brain function and Handwriting. The Preference study combines topics in areas such as Audiology, Footedness, Foot, Lateral dominance and Sample.

The concepts of her Cognitive psychology study are interwoven with issues in Depth perception and Cognition. Laterality connects with themes related to Cerebral hemisphere in her study. In her study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Illusion, Context is strongly linked to Social psychology.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Developmental psychology (39.05%)
  • Preference (22.86%)
  • Cognitive psychology (20.95%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2005-2016)?

  • Developmental psychology (39.05%)
  • Social psychology (18.10%)
  • Cognitive psychology (20.95%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Developmental psychology, Social psychology, Cognitive psychology, Laterality and Hand preference. She specializes in Developmental psychology, namely Autism. Clare Porac has included themes like Preference and Mixed handedness in her Social psychology study.

Clare Porac interconnects Cross-cultural studies, Conformity and Hofstede's cultural dimensions theory in the investigation of issues within Preference. Her work in the fields of Cognitive psychology, such as Ponzo illusion and Illusion, overlaps with other areas such as Language function and Visuospatial neglect. The study incorporates disciplines such as Gerontology and Longevity in addition to Laterality.

Between 2005 and 2016, her most popular works were:

  • Patterns of Handedness and Footedness in Switched and Nonswitched Brazilian Left-Handers: Cultural Effects on the Development of Lateral Preferences (19 citations)
  • A cross-cultural comparison of pressures to switch left-hand writing: Brazil versus Canada. (16 citations)
  • Pseudoneglect: evidence for both perceptual and attentional factors. (15 citations)

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

  • Cognition
  • Social psychology
  • Perception

Clare Porac mostly deals with Laterality, Preference, Social psychology, Developmental psychology and Hand preference. The Laterality study combines topics in areas such as Left handedness, Autism, Creativity and Reading. Her study in Preference is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cross-cultural studies, Sample, Foot and Hofstede's cultural dimensions theory.

Her study brings together the fields of Footedness and Social psychology. Clare Porac has included themes like Stimulus, Bisection and Optical illusion in her Developmental psychology study. Her Hand preference research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Context, Control, Neural control and Conformity.
