Report summary

University of Southern California Department of Psychology in 2015-2017 reads as a 33-PI network with 15 internal PI collaborations. The dominant subject mix is Psychology as the leading field (31% of slots across 20 PIs; 20 labels), Cognitive Neuroscience as the leading subfield (12% of slots across 10 PIs; 10 labels), and Behavioral Health and Interventions as the leading topic (5% of slots across 5 PIs; 5 labels). That is of concern for a 33-PI roster; the strongest pairings may be carrying much of the visible collaboration. The leading PI names are Adam M. Leventhal (21.1 weighted works; Smoking Behavior and Cessation, Anxiety, Depression, Psychometrics, Treatment, Cognitive Processes). The most visible ties are Antoine Bechara and Ofir Turel (8 shared works, weight 6.2). The leading breakdown groups are group 1 with 6 PIs, 6 internal connections, weight 3.9, around Cognitive Neuroscience, Social Psychology, Sociology and Political Science, led by Darby Saxbe, Daphna Oyserman, Mary Helen Immordino‐Yang.
