His primary areas of study are Epistemology, Social science, Human–computer interaction, Philosophy of science and Situated. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Reflexivity, Field and Politics. His work carried out in the field of Social science brings together such families of science as Western thought, History of science and Feature.
His work on Human machine communication, Usability and Web usability as part of general Human–computer interaction study is frequently linked to Usability lab, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. The various areas that Steve Woolgar examines in his Philosophy of science study include Social constructionism, Realism, Engineering ethics and Skepticism. His Situated research includes themes of Philosophy of biology, Meaning, Semiotics, Sociobiology and Cognitive science.
Steve Woolgar mainly focuses on Epistemology, Social science, Reflexivity, Public relations and Sociology of scientific knowledge. In his research, Skepticism is intimately related to Field, which falls under the overarching field of Epistemology. His Social science research incorporates themes from Philosophy of science and Outline of social science.
His research integrates issues of Sociology of knowledge, Ethnography and Media studies in his study of Reflexivity. The study incorporates disciplines such as Knowledge management, Accountability and Social studies in addition to Public relations. His Sociology of scientific knowledge study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Cognition.
Steve Woolgar spends much of his time researching Social science, Neuromarketing, Corporate governance, Field and Ontology. His work on Consumption as part of general Social science study is frequently connected to Range, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. The Neuromarketing study combines topics in areas such as Psychiatry, Medical tourism, Diathesis–stress model, Cognitive science and Neuroeconomics.
His Field study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Reflexivity, Politics and Normative. His Ontology study improves the overall literature in Epistemology. Steve Woolgar focuses mostly in the field of Globalization, narrowing it down to matters related to Media studies and, in some cases, Skepticism, Criticism, Critical engagement and Higher education.
His main research concerns Fundamental ontology, Ontology, Epistemology, Digital health and Health care. His research in Fundamental ontology intersects with topics in Constructivism, Social constructivism and Slogan. The Ontology study combines topics in areas such as Value, Field, Politics and Normative.
His studies deal with areas such as Qualitative research, Focus group and Questionnaire as well as Digital health. Health care is closely attributed to Constructive criticism in his study.
