What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Cognition
- Neuroscience
- Social psychology
His primary areas of study are Cognition, Developmental psychology, Cognitive psychology, Working memory and Working memory training.
His study in Cognition is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Social psychology, Self-control, Functional magnetic resonance imaging and Risk perception.
As part of the same scientific family, Jason Chein usually focuses on Functional magnetic resonance imaging, concentrating on Cerebral cortex and intersecting with Neuroimaging and Nonverbal communication.
His work on Young adult as part of his general Developmental psychology study is frequently connected to Perspective and Sensation seeking, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.
His Cognitive psychology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as California Verbal Learning Test and Modality effect.
His Working memory training research includes themes of Cognitive skill, Short-term memory and Verbal learning.
His most cited work include:
- Peers increase adolescent risk taking by enhancing activity in the brain’s reward circuitry (680 citations)
- Does working memory training work? The promise and challenges of enhancing cognition by training working memory (521 citations)
- Controlled & automatic processing: behavior, theory, and biological mechanisms (430 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Jason Chein spends much of his time researching Developmental psychology, Cognition, Cognitive psychology, Working memory and Risk taking.
His study in the fields of Young adult and Peer group under the domain of Developmental psychology overlaps with other disciplines such as Human factors and ergonomics, Sensation seeking and Social environment.
In general Cognition study, his work on Working memory training, Cognitive skill and Functional neuroimaging often relates to the realm of Perspective and Ventral striatum, thereby connecting several areas of interest.
As a part of the same scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Cognitive psychology, focusing on Dissociation and, on occasion, Articulatory suppression.
His Working memory study combines topics in areas such as Recall, Verbal learning and Visual memory.
His work in the fields of Social psychology, such as Affect, intersects with other areas such as Injury prevention and Mobile technology.
He most often published in these fields:
- Developmental psychology (50.00%)
- Cognition (37.18%)
- Cognitive psychology (35.90%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2020)?
- Developmental psychology (50.00%)
- Cognition (37.18%)
- Risk taking (14.10%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary scientific interests are in Developmental psychology, Cognition, Risk taking, Young adult and Social environment.
He performs integrative Developmental psychology and Context research in his work.
His Cognition study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Control and Maturity.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Preadolescence, Peer influence and Sensation.
His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Cognitive psychology and Anticipation.
His Cognitive psychology research integrates issues from Orbitofrontal cortex and Addiction.
Between 2017 and 2020, his most popular works were:
- Around the world, adolescence is a time of heightened sensation seeking and immature self-regulation. (109 citations)
- Age Patterns in Risk Taking Across the World (78 citations)
- Improving Methodological Standards in Behavioral Interventions for Cognitive Enhancement (60 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Cognition

Jason Chein mainly focuses on Human factors and ergonomics, Injury prevention, Developmental psychology, Cognition and Control.
His work in Human factors and ergonomics is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Suicide prevention.
In his papers, he integrates diverse fields, such as Injury prevention, Cognitive psychology, Occupational safety and health, Demography, Cross-sectional study and Epidemiology.
His Developmental psychology study incorporates themes from Arousal and Orbitofrontal cortex.
Jason Chein studies Cognition, focusing on Cognitive skill in particular.
Jason Chein merges Control with Domain in his study.
