Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Cognition
  • Cognitive psychology
  • Neuroscience

Fergus I. M. Craik mainly investigates Cognition, Cognitive psychology, Developmental psychology, Recall and Levels-of-processing effect. His research investigates the connection with Cognition and areas like Neuroscience of multilingualism which intersect with concerns in Multilingualism and Language proficiency. His Cognitive psychology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Short-term memory, Memory rehearsal and Experimental psychology.

His study in the field of Young adult also crosses realms of Generality. His research integrates issues of Test and Normal aging in his study of Recall. His Levels-of-processing effect research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Encoding specificity principle, Cognitive science, Semantic memory, Optimal distinctiveness theory and Subject.

His most cited work include:

  • Levels of processing: A framework for memory research (7283 citations)
  • Depth of processing and the retention of words in episodic memory. (3085 citations)
  • The handbook of aging and cognition (2020 citations)

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

Fergus I. M. Craik focuses on Cognitive psychology, Cognition, Developmental psychology, Recall and Levels-of-processing effect. His Cognitive psychology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Working memory, Short-term memory, Semantic memory and Episodic memory. His study in Memoria, Cognitive development, Encoding specificity principle, Prospective memory and Neuropsychology are all subfields of Cognition.

His studies deal with areas such as Recognition memory, Neuroscience of multilingualism and Audiology as well as Developmental psychology. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Social psychology and Recall. His work in Levels-of-processing effect is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Cognitive science.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cognitive psychology (48.44%)
  • Cognition (35.64%)
  • Developmental psychology (28.37%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2020)?

  • Cognitive psychology (48.44%)
  • Cognition (35.64%)
  • Developmental psychology (28.37%)

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

Cognitive psychology, Cognition, Developmental psychology, Neuroscience of multilingualism and Cognitive reserve are his primary areas of study. Particularly relevant to Recall is his body of work in Cognitive psychology. His Cognition research includes elements of Cognitive science and Fluency.

He has researched Developmental psychology in several fields, including Frontal lobe and Prospective memory. His Neuroscience of multilingualism research focuses on subjects like Audiology, which are linked to Cognitive impairment. His studies examine the connections between Cognitive reserve and genetics, as well as such issues in Cognitive decline, with regards to Cognitive development.

Between 2009 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Varieties of Memory and Consciousness: Essays in Honour of Endel Tulving (1011 citations)
  • Bilingualism: consequences for mind and brain (637 citations)
  • Delaying the onset of Alzheimer disease Bilingualism as a form of cognitive reserve (338 citations)

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

  • Cognition
  • Neuroscience
  • Cognitive psychology

His primary areas of investigation include Cognitive psychology, Cognition, Neuroscience of multilingualism, Developmental psychology and Cognitive reserve. The concepts of his Cognitive psychology study are interwoven with issues in Working memory, Short-term memory, Spatial memory, Long-term memory and Semantic memory. Cognition is a subfield of Neuroscience that he investigates.

His Neuroscience of multilingualism research incorporates themes from Nonverbal communication, Audiology, Stroop effect, Multilingualism and Age of onset. His Developmental psychology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Context, Recognition memory, Frontal lobe and Neuropsychology. His Cognitive reserve research incorporates elements of Neuropathology and Cognitive decline.
