Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Developmental psychology
  • Social psychology
  • Cognitive psychology

Developmental psychology, Imitation, Cognitive development, Child development and Cognitive psychology are her primary areas of study. Her study brings together the fields of Television viewing and Developmental psychology. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Transfer of learning, Age differences and Communication.

Rachel Barr mostly deals with Memory development in her studies of Cognitive development. Her Child development research includes themes of Generalization, Early childhood and Cognitive advantages of bilingualism. In her research on the topic of Cognitive psychology, Touchscreen and Infant learning is strongly related with Flexibility.

Her most cited work include:

  • Developmental changes in deferred imitation by 6- to 24-month-old infants (409 citations)
  • Developmental changes in imitation from television during infancy. (293 citations)
  • The development of declarative memory in human infants: age-related changes in deferred imitation. (174 citations)

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

Her main research concerns Developmental psychology, Imitation, Cognitive psychology, Child development and Early childhood. Her research investigates the connection between Developmental psychology and topics such as Media use that intersect with issues in Reading. Rachel Barr works mostly in the field of Imitation, limiting it down to topics relating to Cognitive development and, in certain cases, Literacy.

Her Cognitive psychology research includes elements of Social learning, Cognitive imitation, Neuroscience of multilingualism, Transfer of learning and Flexibility. Her Transfer of learning research focuses on subjects like Transfer of training, which are linked to Cognitive science. Her Early childhood research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Digital media and Mobile device.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Developmental psychology (47.54%)
  • Imitation (35.25%)
  • Cognitive psychology (32.79%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Developmental psychology (47.54%)
  • Early childhood (13.11%)
  • Cognitive psychology (32.79%)

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

Rachel Barr spends much of her time researching Developmental psychology, Early childhood, Cognitive psychology, Imitation and Media use. Her work on Language acquisition expands to the thematically related Developmental psychology. Her Early childhood study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Digital media, Context, Working memory, Color matching and Mobile device.

Her work deals with themes such as Cognitive load, Eye tracking and Gaze, which intersect with Cognitive psychology. She has included themes like Social learning, Emulation and Flexibility in her Imitation study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Phone, Literacy and Reading in addition to Media use.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Fathers Are Parents, Too! Widening the Lens on Parenting for Children's Development (154 citations)
  • Look At That! Video Chat and Joint Visual Attention Development Among Babies and Toddlers (47 citations)
  • Growing up in the digital age: Early learning and family media ecology. (23 citations)

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

  • Developmental psychology
  • Social psychology
  • Artificial intelligence

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Developmental psychology, Context, Early childhood, Extramural and Media use. As part of her studies on Developmental psychology, she frequently links adjacent subjects like Neurocognitive. Her studies deal with areas such as Videoconferencing, Attentional control, Grandparent and Child development as well as Context.

She combines subjects such as Affect and Data science with her study of Early childhood. Her work investigates the relationship between Data science and topics such as Mobile device that intersect with problems in Visualization, Generalizability theory and Multimedia. Her Media use research incorporates elements of Phone, Literacy skill, Literacy and Emerging technologies.
