Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Artificial intelligence
  • Developmental psychology
  • Social psychology

His main research concerns Reading, Phonological awareness, Developmental psychology, Cognitive psychology and Phonology. His Reading research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Teaching method and Primary education. Richard K. Wagner usually deals with Phonological awareness and limits it to topics linked to Vocabulary and Morpheme.

His work on Context expands to the thematically related Developmental psychology. His Cognitive psychology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Multilevel model and Rapid automatized naming. His research combines Language development and Phonology.

His most cited work include:

  • The nature of phonological processing and its causal role in the acquisition of reading skills. (2702 citations)
  • Development of Reading-Related Phonological Processing Abilities: New Evidence of Bidirectional Causality from a Latent Variable Longitudinal Study. (1184 citations)
  • Changing Relations between Phonological Processing Abilities and Word-Level Reading as Children Develop from Beginning to Skilled Readers: A 5-Year Longitudinal Study. (856 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Reading, Cognitive psychology, Reading comprehension, Developmental psychology and Phonological awareness. Richard K. Wagner has researched Reading in several fields, including Learning disability and Fluency. His Cognitive psychology study also includes

  • Phonology that connect with fields like Language development and Working memory,
  • Structural equation modeling which connect with Natural language processing and Artificial intelligence.

His studies deal with areas such as Literacy, Vocabulary and Comprehension as well as Reading comprehension. The Developmental psychology study which covers Intelligence quotient that intersects with Applied psychology. His study in the field of Rapid automatized naming is also linked to topics like Metalinguistics.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Reading (42.58%)
  • Cognitive psychology (30.32%)
  • Reading comprehension (29.03%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2020)?

  • Reading comprehension (29.03%)
  • Reading (42.58%)
  • Vocabulary (14.19%)

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

Reading comprehension, Reading, Vocabulary, Developmental psychology and Learning disability are his primary areas of study. His research investigates the connection between Reading comprehension and topics such as Comprehension that intersect with issues in Vocabulary development. Richard K. Wagner combines subjects such as Structural equation modeling, Mathematics education and Artificial intelligence with his study of Reading.

The Mathematics education study combines topics in areas such as Reciprocal teaching, Context, Speech synthesis and Moderation. Richard K. Wagner regularly links together related areas like Response to intervention in his Developmental psychology studies. His studies in Phonological awareness integrate themes in fields like Phonological rule, Cognitive psychology, At-risk students and Writing system.

Between 2015 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Comprehensive Test of Phonological Processing–Second Edition (36 citations)
    1. Smart People Doing Dumb Things: The Case of Managerial Incompetence (34 citations)
  • Does Use of Text-to-Speech and Related Read-Aloud Tools Improve Reading Comprehension for Students With Reading Disabilities? A Meta-Analysis: (30 citations)

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

  • Artificial intelligence
  • Developmental psychology
  • Social psychology

Richard K. Wagner mainly investigates Reading comprehension, Reading, Meta-analysis, Natural language processing and Artificial intelligence. His Reading comprehension study incorporates themes from Pedagogy, Cognitive psychology, Developmental psychology, Vocabulary and Speech synthesis. He has included themes like Phonological awareness, Dyslexia and Identification in his Cognitive psychology study.

His Developmental psychology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Semantics, Strengths and weaknesses and Intelligence quotient. His work in the fields of Phonemic awareness overlaps with other areas such as Evidence-based practice. His Natural language processing study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Language acquisition, Literacy and Child development.
