The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Mirror neuron, Neuroscience, Cognitive psychology, Social cognition and Empathy. Her Mirror neuron research includes themes of Motor cortex, Somatosensory system, Imitation and Social neuroscience. Her work on Cytoarchitecture and Inferior frontal gyrus as part of general Neuroscience research is often related to Tractography and Paralimbic cortex, thus linking different fields of science.
Valeria Gazzola focuses mostly in the field of Cognitive psychology, narrowing it down to topics relating to Developmental psychology and, in certain cases, Hot cognition and Crossmodal. The study incorporates disciplines such as Theory of mind, Brain activity and meditation and Facial expression in addition to Social cognition. Her work carried out in the field of Brain activity and meditation brings together such families of science as Perception and Social perception.
Her primary areas of study are Neuroscience, Cognitive psychology, Empathy, Mirror neuron and Perception. Her work focuses on many connections between Cognitive psychology and other disciplines, such as Brain activity and meditation, that overlap with her field of interest in Functional magnetic resonance imaging. Her work deals with themes such as Developmental psychology, Neuroimaging, Emotional contagion and Psychopathy, which intersect with Empathy.
Her Developmental psychology study deals with Feeling intersecting with Cognition. Her Mirror neuron study incorporates themes from Imitation, Social neuroscience, Cortex and Embodied cognition. The various areas that Valeria Gazzola examines in her Perception study include Motor system and Recall.
Valeria Gazzola mostly deals with Empathy, Neuroscience, Emotional contagion, Social psychology and Insula. Her Empathy research incorporates elements of Lesion, Oxytocin, Brain activity and meditation and Neuroimaging. Her Brain activity and meditation research integrates issues from Theory of mind and Functional connectivity.
Her research in Neuroscience is mostly concerned with Somatosensory system. Her Emotional contagion study combines topics in areas such as Developmental psychology and Clinical psychology. Her Flexibility, Harm, Psychopathy and Prosocial behavior study, which is part of a larger body of work in Social psychology, is frequently linked to Negative Reinforcer, bridging the gap between disciplines.
Her primary scientific interests are in Empathy, Turnover, Brain activity and meditation, Theory of mind and Functional connectivity. Valeria Gazzola integrates Empathy and Negative Reinforcer in her research. Perspective, Control and Cognitive psychology are fields of study that overlap with her Turnover research.
