Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Cognition
  • Neuroscience
  • Developmental psychology

Doreen Kimura mainly focuses on Perception, Cognitive psychology, Audiology, Cognition and Functional asymmetry. Her Perception study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Lateral dominance, Brain asymmetry and Human brain. While the research belongs to areas of Cognitive psychology, Doreen Kimura spends her time largely on the problem of Dichotic listening, intersecting her research to questions surrounding Cerebral hemisphere and Dominance.

Her research integrates issues of Communication, Nonverbal communication, N2pc, DUAL and Tachistoscope in her study of Audiology. Her work carried out in the field of Cognition brings together such families of science as Developmental psychology, Brain damage and Aphasia. Her Functional asymmetry research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Visual perception and Visual N1.

Her most cited work include:

  • Functional Asymmetry of the Brain in Dichotic Listening (1340 citations)
  • Functional Asymmetry of the Brain in Dichotic Listening (1340 citations)
  • Cerebral dominance and the perception of verbal stimuli. (1325 citations)

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

Doreen Kimura mainly investigates Developmental psychology, Cognition, Cognitive psychology, Audiology and Perception. Her research investigates the connection between Developmental psychology and topics such as Sexual orientation that intersect with problems in Homosexuality. Her work in the fields of Spatial ability and Elementary cognitive task overlaps with other areas such as Sex characteristics.

Her study on Lateralization of brain function is often connected to Specialization as part of broader study in Cognitive psychology. Her study in Audiology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Motor skill, Communication, Nonverbal communication, Visual perception and Aphasia. The study incorporates disciplines such as Dichotic listening and Visual memory in addition to Perception.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Developmental psychology (38.67%)
  • Cognition (29.33%)
  • Cognitive psychology (29.33%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 1998-2011)?

  • Developmental psychology (38.67%)
  • Cognition (29.33%)
  • Cognitive psychology (29.33%)

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

Her primary areas of study are Developmental psychology, Cognition, Cognitive psychology, Verbal memory and Brain asymmetry. Her Developmental psychology study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Physical medicine and rehabilitation. Her work in the fields of Cognition, such as Spatial ability and Intellectual ability, overlaps with other areas such as Asymmetry and Injury prevention.

Her Cognitive psychology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Salient and Verbal reasoning. Her research in Brain asymmetry intersects with topics in Stimulus, Dichotic listening and Communication. The Laterality study combines topics in areas such as Perception and Motor program.

Between 1998 and 2011, her most popular works were:

  • Sex and cognition (954 citations)
  • Sex hormones influence human cognitive pattern. (102 citations)
  • Women's advantage on verbal memory is not restricted to concrete words. (54 citations)

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

  • Cognition
  • Neuroscience
  • Developmental psychology

Doreen Kimura spends much of her time researching Developmental psychology, Cognition, Spatial ability, Cognitive psychology and Object. Her Developmental psychology study typically links adjacent topics like Social cognition. She has included themes like Cognitive development, Visual perception and Neuropsychology in her Social cognition study.

Object combines with fields such as California Verbal Learning Test, Verbal memory, Verbal reasoning and Concreteness in her research. Her Good case research incorporates elements of Cognitive skill, Exogenous hormones and Circannual rhythm.
