What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Social psychology
- Neuroscience
- Cognition
Neuroscience, Brain mapping, Resting state fMRI, Cognition and Periaqueductal gray are his primary areas of study.
A large part of his Neuroscience studies is devoted to Amygdala.
His work deals with themes such as Multivariate analysis, Case-control study, Pathology, Grey matter and Physiology, which intersect with Brain mapping.
Rongjun Yu has researched Resting state fMRI in several fields, including Stroop effect, Autism, Asperger syndrome, Functional magnetic resonance imaging and Prefrontal cortex.
His research integrates issues of Brain activity and meditation and Sensory system in his study of Cognition.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Expectancy theory, Cognitive psychology and Developmental psychology.
His most cited work include:
- Neural activity associated with monitoring the oscillating threat value of a tarantula (214 citations)
- A Key Role for Similarity in Vicarious Reward (204 citations)
- Frequency‐specific alternations in the amplitude of low‐frequency fluctuations in schizophrenia (152 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His main research concerns Social psychology, Cognitive psychology, Functional magnetic resonance imaging, Neuroscience and Anterior cingulate cortex.
His Social psychology research incorporates elements of Oxytocin and Event-related potential.
As part of the same scientific family, Rongjun Yu usually focuses on Cognitive psychology, concentrating on Framing effect and intersecting with Vignette.
His work carried out in the field of Functional magnetic resonance imaging brings together such families of science as Resting state fMRI, Insula and Prefrontal cortex.
Rongjun Yu works mostly in the field of Neuroscience, limiting it down to topics relating to Schizophrenia and, in certain cases, Thalamus, as a part of the same area of interest.
Rongjun Yu has included themes like Feedback related negativity, Cingulate cortex and Brain mapping in his Anterior cingulate cortex study.
He most often published in these fields:
- Social psychology (43.04%)
- Cognitive psychology (37.97%)
- Functional magnetic resonance imaging (25.32%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2019)?
- Social psychology (43.04%)
- Cognitive psychology (37.97%)
- Developmental psychology (25.32%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary areas of investigation include Social psychology, Cognitive psychology, Developmental psychology, Altruism and Generosity.
His Social psychology research includes themes of Facial attractiveness and Oxytocin.
His Cognitive psychology research incorporates themes from Stimulus, Perceptual ambiguity, Neural substrate and Eye movement.
His research in Developmental psychology intersects with topics in Social pressure and Social influence.
While the research belongs to areas of Aggression, Rongjun Yu spends his time largely on the problem of Insula, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Prefrontal cortex.
Prefrontal cortex is a subfield of Neuroscience that Rongjun Yu investigates.
Between 2015 and 2019, his most popular works were:
- Stress potentiates decision biases: A stress induced deliberation-to-intuition (SIDI) model. (53 citations)
- Social Discounting in the Elderly: Senior Citizens are Good Samaritans to Strangers (13 citations)
- Fear or greed? Oxytocin regulates inter-individual conflict by enhancing fear in men. (10 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Social psychology
- Neuroscience
- Cognition
His primary areas of study are Social psychology, Young adult, Distrust, Social dilemma and Discounting.
Social psychology is a component of his Sadness, Valence, Emotion classification, Happiness and Appraisal theory studies.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Perception and Child development in addition to Young adult.
His study in Distrust is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Oxytocin and Social group.
His study in Discounting intersects with areas of studies such as Younger adults, Social distance, Altruism and Generosity.
