What is she best known for?
The fields of study she is best known for:
- Law
- Cognition
- Developmental psychology
Her primary scientific interests are in Developmental psychology, Child abuse, Suggestibility, Reading and Dyslexia.
Her Developmental psychology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Cognition, Cognitive bias, Orthographic depth, First language and Phonological awareness.
Her work in the fields of Cognition, such as Memoria, intersects with other areas such as Assertion.
Her studies link Sexual abuse with Child abuse.
Her research in Suggestibility intersects with topics in Credibility, Interview, Fuzzy-trace theory and Criminal law.
Her work on Word recognition as part of her general Reading study is frequently connected to Pooling and Nonsense, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.
Her most cited work include:
- Suggestibility of the child witness: A historical review and synthesis. (1160 citations)
- Persistence of dyslexics' phonological awareness deficits. (593 citations)
- Jeopardy in the Courtroom: A Scientific Analysis of Children's Testimony (461 citations)
What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?
Her primary areas of study are Developmental psychology, Suggestibility, Child abuse, Interview and Cognition.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Cognitive psychology, Recall, Phonological awareness and Dyslexia in addition to Developmental psychology.
She works mostly in the field of Phonological awareness, limiting it down to topics relating to Phonology and, in certain cases, Word recognition, Reading, Language development and Literacy, as a part of the same area of interest.
In her research, Applied psychology is intimately related to Credibility, which falls under the overarching field of Suggestibility.
Her work on Sexual abuse expands to the thematically related Child abuse.
Her Interview study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Reliability and Medical education.
She most often published in these fields:
- Developmental psychology (45.57%)
- Suggestibility (32.91%)
- Child abuse (16.46%)
What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2012-2020)?
- Suggestibility (32.91%)
- Cognitive psychology (13.92%)
- Social psychology (10.13%)
In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:
Maggie Bruck focuses on Suggestibility, Cognitive psychology, Social psychology, Developmental psychology and Medical education.
Her Suggestibility research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Dissociative, Dissociation, Dissociative Amnesia and Dissociative identity disorder.
Her Cognitive psychology research incorporates elements of Reliability and Legal evidence.
In the subject of general Social psychology, her work in Identification is often linked to Scientific analysis, Multiple risk factors, Child sex abuse and Child sexual abuse, thereby combining diverse domains of study.
Her study brings together the fields of Object and Developmental psychology.
The Professional development research Maggie Bruck does as part of her general Medical education study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as World Wide Web and Forensic science, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.
Between 2012 and 2020, her most popular works were:
- The trauma model of dissociation: inconvenient truths and stubborn fictions. Comment on Dalenberg et al. (2012). (71 citations)
- Expert testimony in a child sex abuse case: Translating memory development research. (13 citations)
- Young children's ability to use two-dimensional and three-dimensional symbols to show placements of body touches and hidden objects. (9 citations)
