ASL Occupations Professions Level 2 Practice Test

The sign for Psychologist is described as which option?

Brain + Study Science + Agent Thought + Agent science (alt A hands) + agent

Correct Answer:

science (alt A hands) + agent

Explanation:

In ASL, many occupations are formed by taking a field of study and adding a sign that means “a person who does that work.” Psychologist is built that way: the field is science (psychology is treated as a science), and you add the agent sign to indicate a person who practices in that field. The science sign can be shown with an alternative A-handshape, but the meaning remains the same when you add the agent at the end. This combination exactly conveys “a person who works in the science of the mind,” which is the psychologist. The other descriptions describe different ideas (like brain study or thought) and don’t match how this occupation is formed in ASL.
