Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Psychiatry
  • Gene

Her primary scientific interests are in Psychiatry, Developmental psychology, Pregnancy, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Genetics. Her Psychiatry research incorporates elements of Dizygotic twin and Risk factor. Her Developmental psychology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Twin study, Incentive salience and Attentional bias, Cognition.

Valerie S. Knopik has researched Pregnancy in several fields, including Logistic regression and Confounding. Her research integrates issues of TAS2R38 and Allele in her study of Single-nucleotide polymorphism. While the research belongs to areas of SNP, Valerie S. Knopik spends her time largely on the problem of Genetic variation, intersecting her research to questions surrounding Candidate gene and Substance dependence.

Her most cited work include:

  • Top 10 replicated findings from behavioral genetics. (194 citations)
  • Maternal Smoking During Pregnancy and Child Outcomes: Real or Spurious Effect? (193 citations)
  • The epigenetics of maternal cigarette smoking during pregnancy and effects on child development. (184 citations)

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

Valerie S. Knopik mostly deals with Developmental psychology, Psychiatry, Pregnancy, Genetics and Heritability. Her Developmental psychology study incorporates themes from Twin study and Cognition. The study incorporates disciplines such as Injury prevention and Clinical psychology in addition to Psychiatry.

Valerie S. Knopik has included themes like Logistic regression and Confounding in her Pregnancy study. Her studies examine the connections between Genetics and genetics, as well as such issues in Nicotine, with regards to Endophenotype and Craving. She works mostly in the field of Heritability, limiting it down to topics relating to Single-nucleotide polymorphism and, in certain cases, Allele, as a part of the same area of interest.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Developmental psychology (40.11%)
  • Psychiatry (31.55%)
  • Pregnancy (32.09%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Developmental psychology (40.11%)
  • Pregnancy (32.09%)
  • Offspring (15.51%)

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

Her main research concerns Developmental psychology, Pregnancy, Offspring, Clinical psychology and Psychiatry. Her work on Sibling and Behavioural genetics as part of general Developmental psychology research is frequently linked to Health psychology, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. Her research investigates the connection between Pregnancy and topics such as Confounding that intersect with problems in Propensity score matching.

Her Clinical psychology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Treatment adherence, Additive genetic effects, Heritability and Depression. Heritability is a subfield of Genetics that she tackles. Her work on Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder as part of her general Psychiatry study is frequently connected to Interleukin 33, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.

Between 2015 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Top 10 replicated findings from behavioral genetics. (194 citations)
  • Cue-Elicited Increases in Incentive Salience for Marijuana: Craving, Demand, and Attentional Bias (59 citations)
  • Smoking during pregnancy and ADHD risk: A genetically informed, multiple-rater approach (38 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Psychiatry

Valerie S. Knopik mainly investigates Developmental psychology, Pregnancy, Birth weight, Offspring and Confounding. With her scientific publications, her incorporates both Developmental psychology and Context. Valerie S. Knopik interconnects Twin study and Bioinformatics in the investigation of issues within Pregnancy.

Her Birth weight research includes elements of Sample size determination, In utero, Twin Studies as Topic, Heritability and Epigenetics. Heritability is a subfield of Genetics that Valerie S. Knopik investigates. Valerie S. Knopik usually deals with Offspring and limits it to topics linked to Conduct disorder and Propensity score matching, Logistic regression, Alcohol dependence and Confidence interval.
