Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study Herman A. Witkin is best known for:

  • Cognitive psychology
  • Neuroscience
  • Perception

Herman A. Witkin conducted interdisciplinary study in his works that combined Neuroscience and Cognitive psychology. He conducts interdisciplinary study in the fields of Cognitive psychology and Neuroscience through his works. He incorporates Perception and Visual perception in his studies. With his scientific publications, his incorporates both Visual perception and Perception. Herman A. Witkin performs multidisciplinary study in Social psychology and Personality in his work. Herman A. Witkin performs integrative study on Personality and Social psychology in his works. His research links Mathematical analysis with Development (topology). His Development (topology) research extends to the thematically linked field of Mathematical analysis. Citation is closely attributed to Library science in his study.

His most cited work include:

  • INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES IN EASE OF PERCEPTION OF EMBEDDED FIGURES* (568 citations)
  • Studies in space orientation. IV. Further experiments on perception of the upright with displaced visual fields. (455 citations)
  • Differentiation: Studies of development. (423 citations)

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

His research on Neuroscience frequently links to adjacent areas such as Visual field. His work on Neuroscience expands to the thematically related Visual field. In his works, he conducts interdisciplinary research on Perception and Visual perception. Visual perception and Perception are two areas of study in which he engages in interdisciplinary research. His multidisciplinary approach integrates Cognitive psychology and Cognition in his work. In his study, Herman A. Witkin carries out multidisciplinary Cognition and Cognitive psychology research. In his study, he carries out multidisciplinary Social psychology and Personality research. Herman A. Witkin applies his multidisciplinary studies on Personality and Social psychology in his research. Pure mathematics and Field (mathematics) are commonly linked in his work.

Herman A. Witkin most often published in these fields:

  • Geometry (100.00%)
  • Perception (100.00%)

In recent works Herman A. Witkin was focusing on the following fields of study:

Much of his study explores Orientation (vector space) relationship to Geometry. His Geometry study frequently links to other fields, such as Orientation (vector space). In his works, Herman A. Witkin undertakes multidisciplinary study on Perception and Cognitive psychology. He integrates Cognitive psychology with Neuroscience in his research. By researching both Neuroscience and Perception, Herman A. Witkin produces research that crosses academic boundaries. His Optics study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Visual field. His Visual field study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Optics. His Pure mathematics research extends to the thematically linked field of Field (mathematics). In most of his Pure mathematics studies, his work intersects topics such as Field (mathematics).

Between 1977 and 1992, his most popular works were:

  • Studies in space orientation. II. Perception of the upright with displaced visual fields and with body tilted. (197 citations)
  • Studies in space orientation. II. Perception of the upright with displaced visual fields and with body tilted. (15 citations)
