Robert Krueger ranks among the most highly cited psychologists in the world. His influence is due in part to his work in bringing data regarding individual differences to bear on the study of human psychopathology. Krueger co-founded the Hierarchical Taxonomy of Psychopathology (HiTOP), an international project aiming to articulate a taxonomy of symptoms that provide researchers and practitioners with a means to describe an individual’s mental health issues, as well as their major and minor symptoms, along a spectrum. 

He is interested in research on Personality, Psychopathology, Aging, Health, and Behavior Genetics.
