Editing, Revision, and Translation
Editing and revision play crucial roles in ensuring quality in the publishing and translation industries, yet their significance often goes unnoticed. Editors and revisors are responsible for identifying and making necessary corrections and improvements in draft texts, be it original texts and translations, to meet predefined quality standards. This entry addresses the terminological confusion surrounding the concepts of editing and revision whil…
Visual attention, perception, and performance of international students in EMI lectures with automatic live intralingual subtitles
This article presents a study that examines how international university students perform in English Medium Instruction (EMI) lectures with live intralingual subtitles, or lectures in which the lecturer’s words are subtitled in real time in the same language as the speaker. It investigates which study variables are predictive of the students’ performance, taking into account perception, visual attention and cognitive load. Two one-hour simulated …
The effect of intralingual live subtitling on students’ performance and perception in EMI lectures in Flanders: A pilot study
What goes on behind the scenes? Exploring status perceptions, working conditions and job satisfaction of audio describers
This paper explores the working conditions, status perceptions and job satisfaction of audio describers, professionals involved in the process of producing audio description for individuals with visual impairments. The study employed an online questionnaire to gather insights from a total of 150 respondents working as professional describers. The main findings reveal a prevailing sense of invisibility among audio describers as a professional grou…
Preparing and comparing subtitles for quasi-experimental and experimental research in audiovisual translation studies
Empirical research on cognitive processing in AVT has been on the rise in recent years. A number of overarching works have recommended more standardised approaches and methodological frameworks to contribute to more streamlined, replicable, reproducible and valid future AVT research. To date, the issue of comparability of research materials (e.g., clips, subtitle tracks, comprehension questionnaires) and, more specifically, how to achieve compara…
Measuring translation revision competence and post-editing competence in translation trainees: Methodological issues
Translation proper is rarely the sole activity of professional translators, who regularly function also as revisers and/or post-editors. Various models of and studies into translation competence (TC), translation revision competence (TRC) and post-editing competence (PEC) exist. However, a fundamental question remains unanswered: how similar – or different – are TC, TRC and PEC? Before this question can be answered, a methodological issue must be…
The Nature of Text Production – Similarities and Differences between Writing and Translation
Writing Research and Translation Studies are not only neighbouring disciplines, but also have conflating research interests. Correspondences between the two can be found in five aspects: the ontological nature of the object of study, cognitive factors, the situational factors, the disciplinary nature of the two fields, and the paradigmatic turns they have gone through. This article discusses the similarities and differences and proposes a strengt…
The impact of writing training on transediting in translation, analyzed from a product and process perspective
This paper reports on a quasi-experimental study of the effect of writing training on transediting in the translation product and process of undergraduate translation students. A classical pretest-posttest experimental design was used, in which the experimental group was trained in writing instructive texts in their mother tongue (Dutch) and the control group received a placebo training. Over the course of the experiment, both groups translated f…
