2016 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
His scientific interests lie mostly in Sign language, British Sign Language, Linguistics, Temporal cortex and Manually coded language. Sociolinguistics of sign languages is the focus of his Sign language research. His British Sign Language study incorporates themes from Cognitive psychology, Communication, First language, Phonology and Gesture.
His research links Cognition with Linguistics. The various areas that Bencie Woll examines in his Temporal cortex study include Audiology and Auditory cortex. His Manually coded language research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cognitive science and Spoken language.
His main research concerns Sign language, Linguistics, British Sign Language, Cognitive psychology and Manually coded language. His Sign language research includes themes of Gesture, Communication and Spoken language. His study in the field of Sign, Iconicity, Modality and Natural language also crosses realms of Sign.
His British Sign Language study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Media studies, Cognition, Facial expression, Artificial intelligence and Fingerspelling. Cognitive psychology and Language acquisition are frequently intertwined in his study.
His primary scientific interests are in Sign language, Linguistics, British Sign Language, Cognition and Cognitive psychology. His work carried out in the field of Sign language brings together such families of science as Test, Audiology, Gesture and Spoken language. The study of Linguistics is intertwined with the study of Communication in a number of ways.
His British Sign Language research includes elements of Swedish Sign Language, Facial expression, Numeral system, Artificial intelligence and Working memory. Bencie Woll has included themes like Deep linguistic processing and Temporal cortex in his Cognition study. His study on Cognitive psychology also encompasses disciplines like
His primary areas of investigation include Sign language, Linguistics, British Sign Language, Audiology and Cognitive psychology. His Sign language research incorporates themes from Test, Sociolinguistics, Variation, Confirmatory factor analysis and Transcription. His study in the field of Sign, Notation, Bimodal bilingualism and Sign is also linked to topics like Viola.
His work in British Sign Language addresses subjects such as Cognition, which are connected to disciplines such as Temporal cortex and Deep linguistic processing. His research in Audiology intersects with topics in Developmental psychology, Working memory and Crossmodal. His Cognitive psychology research integrates issues from Judgement, Vocabulary and Phonetics.
