Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Cognition
  • Neuroscience
  • Cognitive psychology

Her main research concerns Cognitive psychology, Cognition, Child development, Developmental psychology and Williams syndrome. Her Cognitive psychology research integrates issues from Neuroconstructivism, Fragile X syndrome, Developmental cognitive neuroscience, Visual perception and Attentional control. Her study connects Audiology and Cognition.

The Child development study combines topics in areas such as Psychological testing and Early childhood. In her study, Mathematical ability, Task, Stroop effect and Task switching is inextricably linked to Working memory, which falls within the broad field of Developmental psychology. Her Williams syndrome study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Down syndrome, Autism, Developmental approach and Set.

Her most cited work include:

  • Executive functioning as a predictor of children's mathematics ability: Inhibition, switching, and working memory (1065 citations)
  • Using developmental trajectories to understand developmental disorders. (342 citations)
  • Task-related Default Mode Network modulation and inhibitory control in ADHD: effects of motivation and methylphenidate (194 citations)

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

Gaia Scerif spends much of her time researching Cognitive psychology, Cognition, Developmental psychology, Fragile X syndrome and Attentional control. Her Cognitive psychology study incorporates themes from Working memory, Visual short-term memory, Williams syndrome and Child development. Her studies in Cognition integrate themes in fields like Audiology and Electroencephalography.

Her Developmental psychology study also includes fields such as

  • Social anxiety which intersects with area such as Cognitive bias,
  • Neurocognitive most often made with reference to Clinical psychology. Her Fragile X syndrome research incorporates themes from Autism, Typically developing, Autism spectrum disorder and Eye movement. Her Autism research includes elements of Comorbidity, Intellectual disability and Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Cognitive psychology (38.99%)
  • Cognition (36.48%)
  • Developmental psychology (28.30%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Cognitive psychology (38.99%)
  • Cognition (36.48%)
  • Audiology (8.18%)

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

Gaia Scerif mostly deals with Cognitive psychology, Cognition, Audiology, Clinical psychology and Electroencephalography. Her studies deal with areas such as Contrast, Affect and Child development as well as Cognitive psychology. Her work on Mental age, Working memory, NIH Toolbox and Williams syndrome as part of general Cognition research is frequently linked to Validity, bridging the gap between disciplines.

The concepts of her Clinical psychology study are interwoven with issues in Intellectual disability, Autism, Autism spectrum disorder and Fragile X syndrome. Her study looks at the relationship between Autism and topics such as Gene, which overlap with Developmental psychology. Her Electroencephalography research includes themes of Motion perception and Attentional control.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Assessing Executive Function in Adolescence: A Scoping Review of Existing Measures and Their Psychometric Robustness. (16 citations)
  • Associations of physical activity and gross motor skills with executive function in preschool children from low‐income South African settings (16 citations)
  • Whole-brain white matter organization, intelligence, and educational attainment (13 citations)

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

  • Cognition
  • Neuroscience
  • Artificial intelligence

Cognitive psychology, Cognition, Developmental psychology, Executive functions and Clinical psychology are her primary areas of study. Her Cognitive psychology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Contrast, Electroencephalography and Child development. Her study in Cognition is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Down syndrome, Typically developing and Flexibility.

In her study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Developmental psychology, Function is strongly linked to Working memory. Her Executive functions research integrates issues from Stroop effect, Verbal fluency test, Trail Making Test and Wisconsin Card Sorting Test. Her Clinical psychology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Memory span, Intellectual disability, Neuropsychology and Medical genetics.
