What is she best known for?
The fields of study she is best known for:
- Cognition
- Artificial intelligence
- Neuroscience
Her scientific interests lie mostly in Sentence, Sentence processing, Cognitive psychology, N400 and Context.
Her Sentence processing research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Event-related potential and Phrase.
Kara D. Federmeier has researched Cognitive psychology in several fields, including Noun, Context effect, Communication and Priming.
Her research in N400 intersects with topics in Prediction in language comprehension, Semantic memory, Artificial intelligence and Natural language processing.
Semantic memory is a subfield of Cognition that she tackles.
Her study looks at the relationship between Context and fields such as Lateralization of brain function, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.
Her most cited work include:
- Thirty years and counting: Finding meaning in the N400 component of the event related brain potential (ERP) (2240 citations)
- Electrophysiology reveals semantic memory use in language comprehension (1582 citations)
- A Rose by Any Other Name: Long-Term Memory Structure and Sentence Processing (581 citations)
What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?
Her primary areas of study are Cognitive psychology, N400, Context, Comprehension and Sentence.
Her study in Cognitive psychology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cognition, Event-related potential and Communication.
Kara D. Federmeier focuses mostly in the field of N400, narrowing it down to topics relating to Semantic memory and, in certain cases, Lexico.
When carried out as part of a general Context research project, her work on Context effect is frequently linked to work in Meaning, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.
Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Nonverbal communication, Meaning, Similarity, Selection and Expectancy theory.
Her study in the field of Sentence processing also crosses realms of Constraint and Association.
She most often published in these fields:
- Cognitive psychology (58.17%)
- N400 (37.25%)
- Context (32.03%)
What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2017-2021)?
- Cognitive psychology (58.17%)
- Comprehension (28.10%)
- N400 (37.25%)
In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:
Kara D. Federmeier mostly deals with Cognitive psychology, Comprehension, N400, Sentence and Context.
Her Cognitive psychology research integrates issues from Event-related potential, Reading, Word, Expectancy theory and Semantic memory.
She interconnects Cognitive skill, Cognition, Concreteness and Function in the investigation of issues within Comprehension.
Her work carried out in the field of N400 brings together such families of science as Semantics, Repetition and Sentence processing.
Her research integrates issues of Adult literacy and False memory in her study of Sentence.
Her Context research includes themes of P600, Language research and Artificial intelligence.
Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:
- The P3b and P600(s): Positive contributions to language comprehension (29 citations)
- Contextual constraints on lexico-semantic processing in aging: Evidence from single-word event-related brain potentials (21 citations)
- Predictability's aftermath: Downstream consequences of word predictability as revealed by repetition effects. (17 citations)
In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Cognition
- Artificial intelligence
- Neuroscience
Kara D. Federmeier spends much of her time researching Cognitive psychology, N400, Comprehension, Context and Sentence.
Her Cognitive psychology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Semantic memory and Event-related potential.
Her work deals with themes such as Object, Visual field, Late positive component and Reading, which intersect with Semantic memory.
The concepts of her N400 study are interwoven with issues in Repetition, Word repetition, Sentence processing, Word and Alpha band.
The Context study combines topics in areas such as P600, P3b and Language research.
She has included themes like Word lists by frequency, False memory, Context effect, Recognition memory and Lexico in her Sentence study.
