Psychometric properties of survey translations: A simulation study Translation and Interpreting at the Interface of Cognition and Emotion, Rojo López, Ana María and Purificación Meseguer Cutillas (eds.), pp. 118–144 | Article
2024 Psychometrics involves the indirect measurement of latent constructs, including aspects of cognition and emotion, and Likert-type scales are a common tool to operationalize and quantify these constructs. One threat to the psychometric properties of such scales is the administration of surveys… read more
Considerations of ecological validity in cognitive translation and interpreting studies Translation, Cognition & Behavior 5:1, pp. 1–26 | Article
2022 Renewed interest in research methods used in cognitive translation and interpreting studies (CTIS) has led to increased reflection on the nature of research and experimental design, internal and external validity, and the type and nature of experimental tasks. Of particular concern is the extent… read more
Chapter 4. An information asymmetry framework for strategic translation policy in multinational corporations Translating Asymmetry – Rewriting Power, Carbonell i Cortés, Ovidi and Esther Monzó-Nebot (eds.), pp. 77–99 | Chapter
2021 The size and scope of multinational corporations in the globalized and interconnected modern economy has increased the need for language services to facilitate a broad range of cross-language communication. Much of the prior research on language in international business has emphasized a… read more
Meta-analysis and replication in interpreting studies Interpreting 22:1, pp. 140–149 | Discussion
2020 Meta-analyses of simultaneous interpreting and working memory Interpreting 21:2, pp. 165–195 | Article
2019 This article adopts a meta-analytic research framework to examine the strength of the relationship between working memory and simultaneous interpreting. This quantitative analysis utilizes a random effects model to combine multiple studies in an examination of differences between professional… read more
Interpreter traits and the relationship with technology and visibility Community Interpreting, Translation, and Technology, Pokorn, Nike K. and Christopher D. Mellinger (eds.), pp. 366–392 | Article
2018 Research on technology and interpreting regularly investigates technology-mediated interpreting settings and contrasts various interpreting configurations to better understand how technology changes the interpreting task. This scholarship generally does not account for various personality or… read more
Order effects in the translation process Translation, Cognition & Behavior 1:1, pp. 1–20 | Article
2018 This study investigates how the order in which various translation memory match-types occur in a target language version of a text may influence translator behavior and cognition. Empirical research designs often attempt to mitigate for possible confounds from order effects, yet explicit… read more
