Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Psychiatry
  • Cognition

His primary areas of investigation include Clinical psychology, Sleep in non-human animals, Physical therapy, Mental health and Psychiatry. The various areas that Markus Gerber examines in his Clinical psychology study include Young adult, Mental toughness and Psychological resilience. His Sleep in non-human animals study incorporates themes from Developmental psychology, Social support and Physical exercise.

His study in Physical therapy is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Slow-wave sleep, Sleep onset latency, Sleep onset, Mood and Weight status. Markus Gerber has included themes like Actigraphy, Developmental psychopathology, Moderation, Burnout and Physical activity level in his Mental health study. Markus Gerber combines subjects such as Aerobic exercise, Occupational stress, Depression and Anxiety with his study of Burnout.

His most cited work include:

  • High Exercise Levels Are Related to Favorable Sleep Patterns and Psychological Functioning in Adolescents: A Comparison of Athletes and Controls (191 citations)
  • Acute effects of moderate aerobic exercise on specific aspects of executive function in different age and fitness groups: A meta-analysis. (176 citations)
  • Review article: do exercise and fitness protect against stress-induced health complaints? A review of the literature. (169 citations)

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

His main research concerns Clinical psychology, Physical therapy, Depression, Cognition and Sleep in non-human animals. His research in Clinical psychology intersects with topics in Vocational education, Mental health, Insomnia and Elite athletes. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Physical therapy, Intervention is strongly linked to Randomized controlled trial.

His work carried out in the field of Depression brings together such families of science as Cardiorespiratory fitness, Internal medicine, Multiple sclerosis and Anxiety. Markus Gerber has researched Cardiorespiratory fitness in several fields, including Demography, Gerontology and Blood pressure. The concepts of his Sleep in non-human animals study are interwoven with issues in Young adult and Mental toughness.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Clinical psychology (25.81%)
  • Physical therapy (23.30%)
  • Depression (16.13%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Clinical psychology (25.81%)
  • Cognition (15.41%)
  • Cardiorespiratory fitness (9.68%)

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

Clinical psychology, Cognition, Cardiorespiratory fitness, Depression and Randomized controlled trial are his primary areas of study. Markus Gerber regularly links together related areas like Social cognition in his Clinical psychology studies. His Cognition research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Developmental psychology and Audiology.

He interconnects Multiple sclerosis, Physical therapy, Aerobic exercise and Anxiety in the investigation of issues within Depression. His Physical therapy research incorporates elements of Working memory and Insomnia. His Mental health research includes elements of Meta-analysis and Gerontology.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Systematic review and meta-analysis investigating moderators of long-term effects of exercise on cognition in healthy individuals. (38 citations)
  • Assessing physical activity in people with mental illness: 23-country reliability and validity of the simple physical activity questionnaire (SIMPAQ) (18 citations)
  • The Acute Effects of Aerobic Exercise on Cognitive Flexibility and Task-Related Heart Rate Variability in Children With ADHD and Healthy Controls. (14 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Psychiatry
  • Cognition

Markus Gerber mainly focuses on Cognition, Clinical psychology, Depression, Randomized controlled trial and Intervention. His Aerobic exercise research extends to the thematically linked field of Cognition. His Aerobic exercise study is related to the wider topic of Physical therapy.

His study in the field of Occupational stress also crosses realms of Simple. His Depression research includes themes of Occupational burnout, Depersonalization, Emotional exhaustion, Internal medicine and Individual health. His work deals with themes such as Healthy individuals, Psychological well-being, Meta-analysis, Exercise intensity and Mental health, which intersect with Intervention.
