Translation, post-editing and directionality: A study of effort in the Chinese-Portuguese language pairTranslation in Transition: Between cognition, computing and technology, Jakobsen, Arnt Lykke and Bartolomé Mesa-Lao (eds.), pp. 107–134 | Chapter
Translation process research has focused on alphabetic scripts in post-editing and translation tasks from the second language (L2) into the mother tongue (L1). This chapter approaches translation and post-editing tasks involving Chinese, which has a logographic script, in combination with… read more
This chapter aims at revisiting the main assumptions of cognitive science, expertise studies and psycholinguistics to discuss how they interface diachronically and synchronically with translation process research (TPR). By revisiting the tenets of these three disciplines, the chapter reflects upon… read more
Alves, Fabio and José Luiz Gonçalves 2015 Investigating the conceptual-procedural distinction in the translation process: A relevance-theoretic analysis of micro and macro translation unitsInterdisciplinarity in Translation and Interpreting Process Research, Ehrensberger-Dow, Maureen, Susanne Göpferich and Sharon O'Brien (eds.), pp. 109–126 | Article
This chapter draws on relevance theory (Sperber and Wilson 1986/1995) and its application to translation (Gutt 2000) to investigate processing effort in translation in relation to two different types of encodings, namely conceptual and procedural encodings (Blakemore 2002; Wilson 2011). Building on… read more

Alves, Fabio, Adriana Pagano and Igor Antônio Lourenço da Silva 2014 Effortful text production in translation: A study of grammatical (de)metaphorization drawing on product and process dataThe Development of Professional Competence, Ehrensberger-Dow, Maureen, Birgitta Englund Dimitrova and Séverine Hubscher-Davidson (eds.), pp. 25–51 | Article
This article analyzes data generated by the combined use of keylogging and eye tracking to examine grammatical (de)metaphorization as a case of explicitation/implicitation (Steiner 2001). It also aims at investigating effortful text production from the perspective of automaticity and monitoring in… read more

Building on Relevance Theory (Sperber & Wilson 1986/1995) and connectionist principles (Elman et al. 1996), this paper presents the rationale and assesses the plausibility of a dynamic cognitive model of translator’s competence proposed by Gonçalves (2003). It differentiates between a specific and… read more
