2002 - Fellow of the American Psychological Association (APA)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Artificial intelligence
  • Developmental psychology
  • Cognitive science

His main research concerns Developmental psychology, Categorization, Cognitive psychology, Habituation and Visual perception. His Developmental psychology research incorporates elements of Face and Face perception. His Categorization study combines topics in areas such as Concept learning, Language acquisition and Language development.

The various areas that he examines in his Concept learning study include Orientation, Discrimination learning, Form perception and Set. His work carried out in the field of Cognitive psychology brings together such families of science as Novelty, Object permanence, Lexico, Lexicon and Child development. The Visual perception study combines topics in areas such as Attention span, Visual search and Eye movement.

His most cited work include:

  • Acquisition of word-object associations by 14-month-old infants. (371 citations)
  • Developmental change in infants' perception of correlations among attributes. (243 citations)
  • Attention-getting and attention-holding processes of infant visual preferences. (238 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Developmental psychology, Cognitive psychology, Habituation, Categorization and Cognitive development. Developmental psychology connects with themes related to Concept learning in his study. His Concept learning research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Face and Child development.

His Cognitive psychology research includes elements of Representation, Social psychology, Language development and Communication. His Categorization study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Object, Novelty and Set. In the subject of general Cognitive development, his work in Object permanence is often linked to Test phase, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Developmental psychology (64.91%)
  • Cognitive psychology (33.33%)
  • Habituation (28.07%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2000-2012)?

  • Cognitive psychology (33.33%)
  • Developmental psychology (64.91%)
  • Habituation (28.07%)

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

Leslie B. Cohen focuses on Cognitive psychology, Developmental psychology, Habituation, Categorization and Cognitive development. His Cognitive psychology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Novelty and Language development. His Developmental psychology study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Concept learning.

His work in Categorization covers topics such as Object permanence which are related to areas like Categorical perception and Piaget's theory of cognitive development. His work in Cognitive development addresses issues such as Information processing, which are connected to fields such as Visual attention, Perceptual Disorders and Associative learning. His Set research integrates issues from Visual perception, Face and U-shaped development.

Between 2000 and 2012, his most popular works were:

  • Labels can override perceptual categories in early infancy. (156 citations)
  • Do 7-month-old infants process independent features or facial configurations? (142 citations)
  • Infant categorization of containment, support and tight‐fit spatial relationships (131 citations)

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

  • Artificial intelligence
  • Cognitive science
  • Cognitive psychology

His primary areas of investigation include Developmental psychology, Categorization, Habituation, Cognitive psychology and Containment. His Developmental psychology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Perceptual-motor processes and Face perception. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Novelty, Language acquisition, Lexico, Lexicon and Object permanence.

His study on Habituation is intertwined with other disciplines of science such as Set, Visual perception, U-shaped development, Information processing and Face. Among his research on Cognitive psychology, you can see a combination of other fields of science like Event, Subtraction, Test trial, Test and Young infants. Many of his Containment research pursuits overlap with Event, Spatial relation, Discrimination learning, Representation and Object.
