1951 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Social psychology
  • Cognition

His primary areas of investigation include Developmental psychology, Communication, Cognitive psychology, Social psychology and Adult female. James R. Anderson has included themes like Ethology, Sleep in non-human animals and Anatomy in his Developmental psychology study. He works mostly in the field of Sleep in non-human animals, limiting it down to topics relating to Ecology and, in certain cases, Captivity, as a part of the same area of interest.

In general Communication study, his work on Facial expression often relates to the realm of Road crossing, Front and Mechanism, thereby connecting several areas of interest. Cognitive psychology is closely attributed to Animal ecology in his work. His biological study deals with issues like Cognition, which deal with fields such as Reflection and Self-concept.

His most cited work include:

  • Sleep, sleeping sites, and sleep-related activities : Awakening to their significance (200 citations)
  • Sleep, sleeping sites, and sleep-related activities : Awakening to their significance (200 citations)
  • Contagious yawning in chimpanzees. (156 citations)

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

James R. Anderson focuses on Developmental psychology, Cognitive psychology, Social psychology, Communication and Cognition. His research integrates issues of Ethology and Novelty in his study of Developmental psychology. His Cognitive psychology research incorporates themes from Object, Imitation, Preference and Theory of mind.

He interconnects Animal ecology, Lemur, Captivity and Extinction in the investigation of issues within Social psychology. His research in Communication intersects with topics in Saimiri sciureus, Deception, Gaze and Primate. When carried out as part of a general Cognition research project, his work on Social cognition is frequently linked to work in Self recognition and Object, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Developmental psychology (31.15%)
  • Cognitive psychology (26.23%)
  • Social psychology (23.77%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2005-2021)?

  • Cognitive psychology (26.23%)
  • Cognition (15.57%)
  • Developmental psychology (31.15%)

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

His primary areas of study are Cognitive psychology, Cognition, Developmental psychology, Social psychology and Communication. His Cognitive psychology research includes themes of Spite and Lesser apes. His Cognition study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Reciprocity, Hylobatidae and Salience.

James R. Anderson has included themes like Perspective, Video sequence and Psychological research in his Developmental psychology study. The various areas that he examines in his Social psychology study include Psittacus erithacus, Captivity and Primate. His Communication study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Saimiri sciureus, Gesture and Gaze.

Between 2005 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Chimpanzees Share Forbidden Fruit (100 citations)
  • Video-induced yawning in stumptail macaques (Macaca arctoides) (89 citations)
  • Use of wild and cultivated foods by chimpanzees at Bossou, Republic of Guinea: feeding dynamics in a human-influenced environment. (89 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Social psychology
  • Cognition

His scientific interests lie mostly in Communication, Social psychology, Ecology, Developmental psychology and Delay of gratification. James R. Anderson interconnects Metacognition and Metacognitive awareness in the investigation of issues within Communication. His Social psychology study frequently involves adjacent topics like Psittacus erithacus.

In the subject of general Ecology, his work in Crop, Habitat, Wildlife and Abundance is often linked to Geography, thereby combining diverse domains of study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Empathy, Perspective and Captivity in addition to Developmental psychology. His study looks at the intersection of Delay of gratification and topics like Saimiri sciureus with Zoology.
