Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Cognition
  • Internal medicine
  • Psychiatry

Rudolf W. H. M. Ponds mainly focuses on Cognition, Developmental psychology, Gerontology, Anxiety and Dementia. His work on Effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive performance, Cognitive skill and Response inhibition as part of his general Cognition study is frequently connected to Injury prevention, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. As part of the same scientific family, he usually focuses on Cognitive skill, concentrating on Cognitive test and intersecting with Verbal memory.

Developmental psychology is closely attributed to Clinical psychology in his research. His Dementia research includes elements of Psychological intervention, Psychiatry, Elderly people and High prevalence. In general Psychiatry, his work in Depression is often linked to Needs assessment linking many areas of study.

His most cited work include:

  • Cognitive functioning in healthy older adults aged 64-81: a cohort study into the effects of age, sex, and education. (219 citations)
  • Change in Sensory Functioning Predicts Change in Cognitive Functioning: Results from a 6‐Year Follow‐Up in the Maastricht Aging Study (218 citations)
  • Age differences in divided attention in a simulated driving task (161 citations)

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

His main research concerns Dementia, Cognition, Clinical psychology, Physical therapy and Psychiatry. His Dementia research includes themes of Experience sampling method, Gerontology and Anxiety. The concepts of his Cognition study are interwoven with issues in Developmental psychology and COPD.

His Clinical psychology study incorporates themes from Intervention, Neuropsychological assessment, Neuropsychology and Feeling. His study in Psychiatry focuses on Depression in particular. In his study, Test is inextricably linked to Cognitive test, which falls within the broad field of Cognitive skill.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Dementia (24.55%)
  • Cognition (22.75%)
  • Clinical psychology (22.16%)

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

  • Dementia (24.55%)
  • Physical therapy (17.37%)
  • Physical medicine and rehabilitation (13.17%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Dementia, Physical therapy, Physical medicine and rehabilitation, Rehabilitation and Clinical psychology. To a larger extent, Rudolf W. H. M. Ponds studies Disease with the aim of understanding Dementia. His studies in Physical therapy integrate themes in fields like Stroke, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, Anxiety and Psychosocial.

His work investigates the relationship between Anxiety and topics such as Latent growth modeling that intersect with problems in Depression and Quality of life. His Clinical psychology research incorporates themes from Apathy, Centrality, Feeling and Traumatic brain injury. His study explores the link between Psychological intervention and topics such as Gerontology that cross with problems in Neurocognitive.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Cognitive impairment and clinical characteristics in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. (15 citations)
  • Exploring the feasibility and usability of the experience sampling method to examine the daily lives of patients with acquired brain injury. (12 citations)
  • An experience sampling method intervention for dementia caregivers: results of a randomized controlled trial (9 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Cognition
  • Psychiatry

Rudolf W. H. M. Ponds spends much of his time researching Experience sampling method, Dementia, Physical medicine and rehabilitation, Clinical psychology and Psychological intervention. He studies Mini–Mental State Examination, a branch of Dementia. His studies deal with areas such as Disease and Acquired brain injury as well as Physical medicine and rehabilitation.

The various areas that Rudolf W. H. M. Ponds examines in his Acquired brain injury study include Psychosocial, Peer support, Balance and Developmental psychology. Rudolf W. H. M. Ponds combines subjects such as Neuropsychological assessment, Neuropsychological test and Clinical neuropsychology with his study of Clinical psychology. His research on Psychological intervention also deals with topics like

  • Competence, which have a strong connection to Randomized controlled trial, Intervention group, Anxiety and Usual care,
  • Physical therapy that connect with fields like Depression, Internal medicine, Symptom Checklist 90, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale and Beck Depression Inventory.
