What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Cognition
- Linguistics
- Cognitive science
His scientific interests lie mostly in Laterality, Developmental psychology, Communication, Lateralization of brain function and Cognitive psychology.
His Laterality study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Cerebral hemisphere.
Jacques Vauclair interconnects Context and Pan paniscus in the investigation of issues within Developmental psychology.
His Communication study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Stimulus, Left Cerebral Hemisphere, Free play and Cognition.
His work carried out in the field of Stimulus brings together such families of science as Picture recognition, Visual cognition, Phenomenon and Comparative psychology.
As a part of the same scientific family, Jacques Vauclair mostly works in the field of Lateralization of brain function, focusing on Gesture and, on occasion, Animal communication.
His most cited work include:
- Manual laterality in nonhuman primates : a distinction between handedness and manual specialization (329 citations)
- Rhesus monkeys use geometric and nongeometric information during a reorientation task (199 citations)
- Handedness and bimanual coordination in the lowland gorilla (133 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Cognitive psychology, Communication, Developmental psychology, Laterality and Gesture are his primary areas of study.
The Lateralization of brain function research Jacques Vauclair does as part of his general Cognitive psychology study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Task, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.
His Lateralization of brain function research incorporates elements of Facial expression, Perception and Primate.
His work is dedicated to discovering how Communication, Artificial intelligence are connected with Natural language processing and other disciplines.
His Laterality study incorporates themes from Social relation, Dominance and Cerebral hemisphere.
Jacques Vauclair usually deals with Gesture and limits it to topics linked to Language development and Language acquisition.
He most often published in these fields:
- Cognitive psychology (39.26%)
- Communication (34.07%)
- Developmental psychology (34.07%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2019)?
- Gesture (25.19%)
- Cognitive psychology (39.26%)
- Developmental psychology (34.07%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary areas of investigation include Gesture, Cognitive psychology, Developmental psychology, Communication and Lateralization of brain function.
His work deals with themes such as Hand preference, Laterality, Language development and Origin of language, which intersect with Gesture.
The concepts of his Cognitive psychology study are interwoven with issues in Dichotic listening, Facial expression and Cognition.
His Developmental psychology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Social psychology and Comparative psychology.
His work on Animal communication as part of general Communication study is frequently linked to Phylogenetic tree, bridging the gap between disciplines.
His study focuses on the intersection of Lateralization of brain function and fields such as Primate with connections in the field of Set.
Between 2010 and 2019, his most popular works were:
- On the origins of human handedness and language: a comparative review of hand preferences for bimanual coordinated actions and gestural communication in nonhuman primates. (86 citations)
- Hand preference for pointing gestures and bimanual manipulation around the vocabulary spurt period (42 citations)
- Right hemisphere dominance for emotion processing in baboons. (40 citations)
