Henry M. Wellman focuses on Cognitive development, Developmental psychology, Theory of mind, Cognitive psychology and Cognition. The concepts of his Cognitive development study are interwoven with issues in Concept learning, Theory-theory, Social psychology and Cognitive science. His work on Child development as part of his general Developmental psychology study is frequently connected to Conversation, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.
His Theory of mind research includes elements of Emergent materialism, Intelligence quotient, Cross-cultural studies and Competence. His Cognitive psychology research includes themes of Overconfidence effect, Perception, Social cognition and Action. His work in the fields of Folk biology overlaps with other areas such as Mental state.
His scientific interests lie mostly in Developmental psychology, Theory of mind, Cognitive development, Cognitive psychology and Cognition. In general Developmental psychology, his work in Child development, Age differences and Preschool child is often linked to Comprehension and Task analysis linking many areas of study. His research integrates issues of Social psychology, Cognitive science, Autism, Social cognition and Epistemology in his study of Theory of mind.
His Cognitive development study combines topics in areas such as Concept learning, Theory-theory, Mental representation and Set. His studies in Cognitive psychology integrate themes in fields like Perception, Action, Logical reasoning, Metacognition and Feeling. His Cognition research integrates issues from Object, Attribution and Causality.
Henry M. Wellman mainly investigates Theory of mind, Developmental psychology, Child development, Social psychology and Cognitive science. His study looks at the relationship between Theory of mind and topics such as Epistemology, which overlap with Selection. His studies deal with areas such as Interpersonal communication, Interpersonal relationship and Cognition as well as Developmental psychology.
He has included themes like Autism and Peer group in his Child development study. Henry M. Wellman usually deals with Social psychology and limits it to topics linked to Concept learning and Social perception. The Cognitive science study combines topics in areas such as Theory-theory and Field.
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Theory of mind, Developmental psychology, Social psychology, Child development and Autism. Many of his research projects under Theory of mind are closely connected to State with State, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. While the research belongs to areas of Developmental psychology, Henry M. Wellman spends his time largely on the problem of Interpersonal relationship, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Recall, Knowledge level and Concept learning.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Epistemology, Probabilistic logic, Probabilistic inference and Cognitive psychology in addition to Social psychology. His biological study deals with issues like Peer group, which deal with fields such as Social skills and Popularity. His work deals with themes such as Middle childhood and Intelligence quotient, which intersect with Autism.
