  • Feedback Contributions to Visual Awareness in Human Occipital Cortex (142 citations)

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

David M. Lane mainly investigates Cognitive psychology, Statistics, Developmental psychology, Human–computer interaction and Perception. His Cognitive psychology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cognitive development, Stimulus, Lexical decision task, Visual perception and Selective attention. His study looks at the relationship between Statistics and fields such as Econometrics, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Hyperactive child syndrome, Spatial ability, Test performance, Spatial Visualization and Auditory perception in addition to Developmental psychology. His Human–computer interaction research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Graphical user interface, Computer literacy and Measure. David M. Lane has researched Perception in several fields, including Vigilance, Audiology, Speech recognition, Cognition and Artificial intelligence.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cognitive psychology (17.95%)
  • Statistics (13.68%)
  • Developmental psychology (12.82%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2021)?

  • Clinical psychology (6.84%)
  • Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (7.69%)
  • Autism spectrum disorder (4.27%)

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

David M. Lane spends much of his time researching Clinical psychology, Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, Autism spectrum disorder, Cognitive psychology and Autism. His Clinical psychology study typically links adjacent topics like Psychological statistics. His Autism spectrum disorder research includes elements of Task, Cognition, Elementary cognitive task and Methylphenidate.

David M. Lane combines subjects such as Response inhibition, Impulsivity, Audiology and Disinhibition with his study of Elementary cognitive task. His research brings together the fields of Ecological validity and Cognitive psychology. The subject of his Autism research is within the realm of Psychiatry.

Between 2009 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Gender disparities in colloquium speakers at top universities (75 citations)
  • Effects of extended release methylphenidate treatment on ratings of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and associated behavior in children with autism spectrum disorders and ADHD symptoms. (59 citations)
  • ADHD severity as it relates to comorbid psychiatric symptomatology in children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). (33 citations)

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

  • Statistics
  • Cognition
  • Operating system

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, Clinical psychology, Autism, Psychiatry and Intelligence quotient are his primary areas of study. His research integrates issues of Severity of illness and Autism spectrum disorder in his study of Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. David M. Lane integrates Severity of illness and Teacher rating in his research.

His Autism spectrum disorder research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Phobic disorder, Methylphenidate, CBCL and Child Behavior Checklist. Intelligence quotient and Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule are commonly linked in his work.
