Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Developmental psychology
  • Social science
  • Social psychology

His primary areas of investigation include Developmental psychology, Academic achievement, Primary education, Cross-cultural and Cultural diversity. Childhood development and Child development are the subjects of his Developmental psychology studies. His Academic achievement study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Aptitude, Social environment, Cross-cultural studies and Elementary cognitive task.

Harold W. Stevenson interconnects Feeling, Teaching method and Aggression in the investigation of issues within Social environment. He focuses mostly in the field of Elementary cognitive task, narrowing it down to topics relating to Reading and, in certain cases, Effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive performance. His work carried out in the field of Primary education brings together such families of science as School environment and Personality.

His most cited work include:

  • The learning gap : why our schools are failing and what we can learn from Japanese and Chinese education (951 citations)
  • Response Style and Cross-Cultural Comparisons of Rating Scales Among East Asian and North American Students (596 citations)
  • Mathematics achievement of Chinese, Japanese, and American children (403 citations)
