Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Psychiatry
  • Internal medicine
  • Statistics

Clinical psychology, Psychiatry, Behavioral economics, Impulsivity and Addiction are his primary areas of study. His work on Mindfulness as part of general Clinical psychology study is frequently linked to Meditation, bridging the gap between disciplines. His research investigates the connection between Psychiatry and topics such as Smoking cessation that intersect with issues in Abstinence, Survival analysis and Risk factor.

His Behavioral economics study incorporates themes from Alcohol abuse, Demand curve, Substance abuse, Sample and Reinforcement. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Public health and Endophenotype. His study brings together the fields of Social psychology and Addiction.

His most cited work include:

  • Delayed reward discounting and addictive behavior: a meta-analysis (594 citations)
  • Delayed reward discounting and addictive behavior: a meta-analysis (594 citations)
  • The Behavioral Economics of Substance Use Disorders: Reinforcement Pathologies and Their Repair (311 citations)

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

His main research concerns Clinical psychology, Addiction, Psychiatry, Impulsivity and Behavioral economics. The various areas that James MacKillop examines in his Clinical psychology study include Cannabis, Cognition, Craving and Personality. His Addiction research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Functional magnetic resonance imaging, Substance abuse and Nicotine.

His studies deal with areas such as Alcohol dependence, Randomized controlled trial, Smoking cessation and Alcohol use disorder as well as Psychiatry. His research in Impulsivity intersects with topics in Sensation seeking and Endophenotype. James MacKillop interconnects Social psychology, Reinforcement, Demand curve, Injury prevention and Human factors and ergonomics in the investigation of issues within Behavioral economics.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Clinical psychology (49.45%)
  • Addiction (35.82%)
  • Psychiatry (34.73%)

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

  • Clinical psychology (49.45%)
  • Cannabis (22.86%)
  • Addiction (35.82%)

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

James MacKillop mainly focuses on Clinical psychology, Cannabis, Addiction, Psychiatry and Impulsivity. His study in the field of Substance use is also linked to topics like Context. His work deals with themes such as Mental health, Sample, Effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive performance and Neurocognitive, which intersect with Cannabis.

The concepts of his Addiction study are interwoven with issues in Developmental psychology, Legalization and Behavior change. His Psychiatry research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Alcohol and Protocol. His Impulsivity research incorporates themes from Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, Persistence, Association and Food addiction.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Experimental Manipulations of Behavioral Economic Demand for Addictive Commodities: A Meta‐Analysis (17 citations)
  • A large-scale genome-wide association study meta-analysis of cannabis use disorder. (13 citations)
  • Shared genetic risk between eating disorder- and substance-use-related phenotypes: Evidence from genome-wide association studies (6 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Psychiatry
  • Cognition

James MacKillop spends much of his time researching Addiction, Psychiatry, Clinical psychology, Alcohol use disorder and Major depressive disorder. The Addiction study combines topics in areas such as Brain disease and Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. His work on Anxiety, Depression and Drug problem as part of general Psychiatry research is often related to National study, thus linking different fields of science.

When carried out as part of a general Clinical psychology research project, his work on Delay discounting is frequently linked to work in Construct, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His Alcohol use disorder study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Schizophrenia, Eating disorders, Bulimia nervosa, Binge eating and Comorbidity. His Preference research includes elements of Impulsivity and Substance abuse.
