Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Neuroscience
  • Psychiatry
  • Cognition

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Neuroscience, Developmental psychology, Facial expression, Clinical psychology and Amygdala. Her work on Motor system and Functional magnetic resonance imaging as part of general Neuroscience research is often related to Human research, thus linking different fields of science. Her Developmental psychology study combines topics in areas such as Social relation, Anger and Testosterone.

Her work in Facial expression tackles topics such as Cognitive psychology which are related to areas like Gaze and Happiness. The study incorporates disciplines such as Odds ratio and Psychiatry, Anxiety in addition to Clinical psychology. The Amygdala study combines topics in areas such as Transcranial magnetic stimulation, Prefrontal cortex, Posterior parietal cortex and Fusiform face area.

Her most cited work include:

  • Diminished cortisol responses to psychosocial stress associated with lifetime adverse events a study among healthy young subjects. (290 citations)
  • Cortisol-induced impairments of working memory require acute sympathetic activation. (235 citations)
  • Neuroticism modulates amygdala-prefrontal connectivity in response to negative emotional facial expressions. (218 citations)

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

Karin Roelofs mainly focuses on Developmental psychology, Clinical psychology, Neuroscience, Anxiety and Amygdala. Her Developmental psychology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Audiology, Social anxiety, Hydrocortisone, Facial expression and Testosterone. Her Facial expression research focuses on subjects like Cognitive psychology, which are linked to Perception.

Her work deals with themes such as Psychiatry, Aggression and Randomized controlled trial, which intersect with Clinical psychology. Her Anxiety research incorporates elements of Big Five personality traits, Neuroticism, Extraversion and introversion, Personality and Depression. Her Amygdala study also includes fields such as

  • Prefrontal cortex which connect with Posterior parietal cortex,
  • Psychopathy which connect with Affect.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Developmental psychology (26.91%)
  • Clinical psychology (24.66%)
  • Neuroscience (22.42%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Clinical psychology (24.66%)
  • Neuroscience (22.42%)
  • Cognitive psychology (15.25%)

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

Karin Roelofs spends much of her time researching Clinical psychology, Neuroscience, Cognitive psychology, Cognition and Amygdala. Her Clinical psychology research focuses on Aggression and how it connects with Endogeny. Her work on Stimulation and Brain stimulation as part of general Neuroscience study is frequently linked to Action selection and Startle potentiation, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.

Her Cognitive psychology research includes themes of Social emotional learning, Insula, Social anxiety, Anxiety and Facilitation. Karin Roelofs has included themes like Stimulus, Impulsivity, Audiology and Disinhibition in her Cognition study. Her Amygdala research includes elements of Prefrontal cortex, Frontal Pole and Cognitive complexity.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Stress matters: Randomized controlled trial on the effect of probiotics on neurocognition (24 citations)
  • Acute stress alters the 'default' brain processing. (21 citations)
  • Neural Dynamics of Shooting Decisions and the Switch from Freeze to Fight (19 citations)

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

  • Neuroscience
  • Cognition
  • Psychiatry

Neuroscience, Clinical psychology, Functional magnetic resonance imaging, Amygdala and Prefrontal cortex are her primary areas of study. Her work carried out in the field of Neuroscience brings together such families of science as Social relation, Stress-related disorders and Psychological resilience. Her Clinical psychology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Affect and Aggression.

As a member of one scientific family, Karin Roelofs mostly works in the field of Functional magnetic resonance imaging, focusing on Anterior cingulate cortex and, on occasion, Cognitive psychology and Big Five personality traits. Her study with Amygdala involves better knowledge in Internal medicine. Her Prefrontal cortex research integrates issues from Endocrinology and Fear conditioning.
