What is she best known for?
The fields of study she is best known for:
- Artificial intelligence
- Neuroscience
- Perception
Her primary areas of study are Speech perception, Cognitive psychology, Language development, Perception and Phonetics.
Janet F. Werker interconnects Developmental psychology, Language acquisition, Speech processing and Audiology in the investigation of issues within Speech perception.
Her work in the fields of Cognitive psychology, such as Cued speech, overlaps with other areas such as Experiential learning.
Her Language development study combines topics in areas such as Word recognition, Vocabulary, Active listening and Multilingualism.
Her Perception research includes elements of MEDLINE and First language.
The various areas that Janet F. Werker examines in her Phonetics study include Communication, Interstimulus interval, Hindi, Foreign language learning and Cross-cultural studies.
Her most cited work include:
- Cross-language speech perception: Evidence for perceptual reorganization during the first year of life (1985 citations)
- Infant sensitivity to distributional information can affect phonetic discrimination. (909 citations)
- Infants listen for more phonetic detail in speech perception than in word-learning tasks (579 citations)
What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?
Her main research concerns Speech perception, Cognitive psychology, Perception, Language acquisition and Language development.
Her Speech perception research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Communication, Phonetics, Audiology and First language.
Her Phonetics study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Phonology and Vowel.
Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cognitive development, Active listening, Visual perception, Perceptual narrowing and Young infants.
Her work carried out in the field of Perception brings together such families of science as Consonant, Speech recognition, Cognition and Categorization.
To a larger extent, she studies Developmental psychology with the aim of understanding Language development.
She most often published in these fields:
- Speech perception (45.75%)
- Cognitive psychology (33.49%)
- Perception (32.08%)
What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2013-2021)?
- Speech perception (45.75%)
- Language acquisition (24.06%)
- Perception (32.08%)
In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:
Janet F. Werker focuses on Speech perception, Language acquisition, Perception, Cognitive psychology and Audiology.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Eye tracking, Phonetics, Auditory perception and First language in addition to Speech perception.
Janet F. Werker has included themes like Tone, Object, Neuroscience of multilingualism and Word learning in her Language acquisition study.
Janet F. Werker combines subjects such as Stimulus, Speech production, Categorization and Electroencephalography with her study of Perception.
The various areas that she examines in her Cognitive psychology study include Cognition, Cognitive science, Language development and Perceptual narrowing.
Her Audiology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Consonant, Period, Motor theory of speech perception and Teething.
Between 2013 and 2021, her most popular works were:
- Critical Periods in Speech Perception: New Directions (267 citations)
- Perceptual Narrowing During Infancy: A Comparison of Language and Faces (167 citations)
- Sensorimotor influences on speech perception in infancy. (97 citations)
In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Neuroscience
- Artificial intelligence
- Cognition
Her primary areas of investigation include Language acquisition, Speech perception, Cognitive psychology, Perception and Cognition.
Janet F. Werker interconnects Object, Word, Eye tracking and First language in the investigation of issues within Language acquisition.
Speech perception connects with themes related to Phonetics in her study.
In her study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Phonetics, Consonant is strongly linked to Language development.
Her work on Auditory perception as part of general Perception research is often related to Relation, thus linking different fields of science.
Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Natural sounds, Speech communication, Communication and Spoken language.
