What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Social psychology
- Neuroscience
- Developmental psychology
Developmental psychology, Physiology, Amygdala, Social relation and Primate are his primary areas of study.
His study brings together the fields of Titi and Developmental psychology.
His research in Physiology intersects with topics in Socioemotional selectivity theory, Aggression and Squirrel monkey.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Ibotenic acid and Macaque.
His research links Pair bond with Social relation.
While the research belongs to areas of Primate, William A. Mason spends his time largely on the problem of Social psychology, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Adrenal cortex.
His most cited work include:
- Increased social fear and decreased fear of objects in monkeys with neonatal amygdala lesions. (223 citations)
- The effects of bilateral lesions of the amygdala on dyadic social interactions in rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta). (218 citations)
- Social stress results in altered glucocorticoid regulation and shorter survival in simian acquired immune deficiency syndrome (151 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
William A. Mason mostly deals with Developmental psychology, Social relation, Amygdala, Primate and Titi.
The Aggression research William A. Mason does as part of his general Developmental psychology study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Object Attachment, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.
William A. Mason focuses mostly in the field of Social relation, narrowing it down to matters related to Captivity and, in some cases, Temperament.
His Amygdala research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Basal ganglia, Ibotenic acid, Physiology and Social cognition.
His research investigates the connection between Primate and topics such as Social psychology that intersect with issues in Animal ecology and Cognitive psychology.
His research on Titi also deals with topics like
- Pair bond, which have a strong connection to Endocrinology, Internal medicine and Vasopressin,
- Zoology that connect with fields like Neuroendocrinology.
He most often published in these fields:
- Developmental psychology (33.64%)
- Social relation (21.50%)
- Amygdala (27.10%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2006-2019)?
- Neuroscience (25.23%)
- Amygdala (27.10%)
- Developmental psychology (33.64%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Amygdala, Developmental psychology, Pair bond and Primate.
When carried out as part of a general Neuroscience research project, his work on Central nervous system and Macaque is frequently linked to work in Sympathetic nervous system, Social genomics and Viral pathogenesis, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.
His studies deal with areas such as Basal ganglia, Ibotenic acid and Physiology as well as Amygdala.
His Developmental psychology study incorporates themes from Arousal, Social environment, Social group, Adult male and Novelty.
His Pair bond study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Endocrinology, Glucose uptake and Internal medicine.
His research integrates issues of Stimulus and Titi in his study of Primate.
Between 2006 and 2019, his most popular works were:
- Social stress enhances sympathetic innervation of primate lymph nodes: mechanisms and implications for viral pathogenesis (114 citations)
- Serotonin transporter expression is predicted by early life stress and is associated with disinhibited behavior in infant rhesus macaques (112 citations)
- Neural correlates of pair-bonding in a monogamous primate (70 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Neuroscience
- Social psychology
- Social science
William A. Mason mainly investigates Neuroscience, Amygdala, Serotonin transporter, Developmental psychology and Endocrinology.
Basal ganglia and Ibotenic acid are subfields of Neuroscience in which his conducts study.
William A. Mason performs multidisciplinary study in the fields of Amygdala and Ventral pallidum via his papers.
His work carried out in the field of Developmental psychology brings together such families of science as Social environment, Rhesus macaque and Social group.
His studies in Endocrinology integrate themes in fields like Morning, Internal medicine and Pair bond.
His study looks at the intersection of Pair bond and topics like Vasopressin with Primate.
