- Neural Mechanisms of Involuntary Attention to Acoustic Novelty and Change (716 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Kimmo Alho spends much of his time researching Audiology, Mismatch negativity, Neuroscience, Stimulus and Event-related potential.
The various areas that Kimmo Alho examines in his Audiology study include Electrophysiology, Communication, Electroencephalography, Developmental psychology and Visual perception.
His work deals with themes such as Perception, Magnetoencephalography and Auditory cortex, which intersect with Mismatch negativity.
In his study, Laterality is strongly linked to Lateralization of brain function, which falls under the umbrella field of Auditory cortex.
Kimmo Alho has researched Stimulus in several fields, including Involuntary attention, Cognitive psychology and Auditory perception.
His study in Event-related potential is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Sound localization, Vowel, Evoked potential, Pitch Discrimination and Brain mapping.
He most often published in these fields:
- Audiology (61.04%)
- Mismatch negativity (59.44%)
- Neuroscience (29.72%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?
- Brain activity and meditation (14.86%)
- Functional magnetic resonance imaging (18.07%)
- Audiology (61.04%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Brain activity and meditation, Functional magnetic resonance imaging, Audiology, Cognitive psychology and Working memory.
His Brain activity and meditation research is included under the broader classification of Neuroscience.
His work on Selective attention as part of general Neuroscience research is often related to Natural, thus linking different fields of science.
His Audiology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Superior temporal gyrus, Mismatch negativity, Electroencephalography, Angular gyrus and Brain mapping.
The Brain mapping study which covers Lateralization of brain function that intersects with Event-related potential.
His Cognitive psychology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Visual Objects, Visual N1, Stimulus, N2pc and Burnout.
Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Stimulus-dependent activations and attention-related modulations in the auditory cortex: A meta-analysis of fMRI studies (84 citations)
- The Dark Side of Internet Use: Two Longitudinal Studies of Excessive Internet Use, Depressive Symptoms, School Burnout and Engagement Among Finnish Early and Late Adolescents. (82 citations)
- Media multitasking is associated with distractibility and increased prefrontal activity in adolescents and young adults (56 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Cognition
- Neuroscience
- Functional magnetic resonance imaging
Functional magnetic resonance imaging, Cognitive psychology, Working memory, Brain activity and meditation and Audiology are his primary areas of study.
His study on Functional magnetic resonance imaging is covered under Neuroscience.
His Cognitive psychology research includes themes of Frontal Cortices and Task.
His study on Working memory also encompasses disciplines like
- Stimulus modality that intertwine with fields like Auditory perception, Recognition memory, Neutral stimulus and Stimulus,
- Developmental psychology that connect with fields like Person oriented, Feeling and Set.
His work carried out in the field of Brain activity and meditation brings together such families of science as Visual Objects, Visual N1, N2pc, Distraction and Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex.
His research in Auditory area and Auditory cortex are components of Audiology.
