Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Cognition
  • Neuroscience
  • Social psychology

His main research concerns Developmental psychology, Autism, Alexithymia, Cognitive psychology and Empathy. The various areas that Geoffrey Bird examines in his Developmental psychology study include Facial expression, Affect and Social perception. His research in Autism intersects with topics in Spectrum disorder, Attribution and Clinical psychology.

As a part of the same scientific study, Geoffrey Bird usually deals with the Alexithymia, concentrating on Interoception and frequently concerns with Developmental psychopathology, Insula, Erikson's stages of psychosocial development, Developmental cognitive neuroscience and Psychopathology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Stimulus, Stimulus–response compatibility, Cognition and Visual perception. His Empathy study also includes

  • Imitation and Functional magnetic resonance imaging most often made with reference to Social cognition,
  • Theory of mind which intersects with area such as Cognitive science.

His most cited work include:

  • Somatosensory activations during the observation of touch and a case of vision-touch synaesthesia (456 citations)
  • Empathic brain responses in insula are modulated by levels of alexithymia but not autism (403 citations)
  • Empathic brain responses in insula are modulated by levels of alexithymia but not autism (403 citations)

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

Geoffrey Bird focuses on Cognitive psychology, Autism, Developmental psychology, Alexithymia and Cognition. Geoffrey Bird combines subjects such as Perception, Imitation, Facial expression, Social cognition and Theory of mind with his study of Cognitive psychology. His Theory of mind research includes elements of Perspective-taking, Social psychology and Mentalization.

His Autism study incorporates themes from Audiology and Face perception. He has researched Developmental psychology in several fields, including Feeling, Brain activity and meditation, Interpersonal relationship and Social perception. His Alexithymia research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Emotion recognition, Interoception, Spectrum disorder and Empathy.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cognitive psychology (72.33%)
  • Autism (54.55%)
  • Developmental psychology (52.57%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Cognitive psychology (72.33%)
  • Autism (54.55%)
  • Autism spectrum disorder (33.60%)

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

Geoffrey Bird spends much of his time researching Cognitive psychology, Autism, Autism spectrum disorder, Perception and Alexithymia. His studies deal with areas such as Gaze and Cognition, Social cognition as well as Cognitive psychology. His Autism study is focused on Developmental psychology in general.

In the subject of general Developmental psychology, his work in Neurotypical is often linked to Terminology, thereby combining diverse domains of study. His work on Interoception as part of general Perception study is frequently linked to Top-down and bottom-up design, bridging the gap between disciplines. Anorexia nervosa is closely connected to Emotion recognition in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Alexithymia.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Contribution of Time Estimation and Knowledge to Heartbeat Counting Task Performance under Original and Adapted Instructions (17 citations)
  • Contribution of Time Estimation and Knowledge to Heartbeat Counting Task Performance under Original and Adapted Instructions (17 citations)
  • Testing the independence of self-reported interoceptive accuracy and attention. (15 citations)

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

  • Cognition
  • Neuroscience
  • Social psychology

Geoffrey Bird mainly investigates Cognitive psychology, Autism, Developmental psychology, Perception and Empathy. He has included themes like Autism spectrum disorder and Robustness in his Cognitive psychology study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Social relation and Imitation in addition to Autism.

His primary area of study in Developmental psychology is in the field of Prosocial behavior. His research in the fields of Interoception overlaps with other disciplines such as Independence and Top-down and bottom-up design. He has included themes like Neurotypical, Alexithymia, Affect and Emotion identification in his Empathy study.
