Transcreation guidelines for migrant health information materials
Communicative accessibility in health information materials is a key component of health equity for migrant populations who speak languages of lesser diffusion (LLDs). Although translation is commonly used to facilitate access, multilingual health materials often reproduce structures, formats and cultural assumptions designed for native audiences, limiting contextual adequacy and communicative effectiveness. In response, transcreation – an iterat…
Health information resources for migrants
Purpose Migrants and refugees face barriers to accessing health information, including language, culture and administrative complexity, which limit their use of health-care services. This study aims to map and characterise the health information resources used by Spanish NGOs for migrants and refugees. Particular attention was given to languages, formats and topics to examine how these materials address linguistic and cultural barriers and facili…
Comunicación pública de la ciencia a través de la web 2.0. El caso de los centros de investigación y universidades públicas de España
This paper analyzes the use that the Spanish National Research Council centers (CSIC, by its Spanish abbreviation) and Spanish public universities make of web 2.0 in disseminating their research. The methodology used is based on an ad hoc checklist design for collecting data, focusing on three areas: the use of web 2.0 tools; connectivity (number of followers); and intensity (number of comments published). One significant finding was that both ty…
Tratamiento de la información científica en las ediciones digitales de los periódicos españoles
The treatment of scientific information is analysed in the digital edition of the most-read newspapers in Spain: El país, El mundo, ABC and 20 minutos in December 2012, 2013 and 2014. The subject of inquiry is the published news, of which the quantity has been determined, the sources identified, and each issue categorized by the area of science to which it refers. The data obtained leads to the conclusion that the online editions, rather than ove…
Academic use of custom social networks in translation training
The widespread application of e-learning in traditional learning contexts can be \njustified only if it offers results that are better than those previously achieved. \nResearch into the academic use of social networks has focused on a range of fields \nincluding learner motivation and sense of community. This area of study seeks to \ndisprove the negative ideas inherent in such networks and create communication \nspaces similar to those provided…
Tratamiento lingüístico de las preguntas en español en los sistemas de búsqueda de respuestas
We propose a procedure for the linguistic treatment of Spanish questions as a step prior to their classification in question answering systems. The main types of questionanswering systems and their basic architecture are described. We review the principal question classification taxonomies used to date and the different fields from which they have been derived. Finally, we present the stages of linguistic analysis that the text of questions in qu…
Aproximación a las actitudes y percepciones de los usuarios ante las tecnologías de la información
Understanding why information technology is accepted or rejected by society has become one of the most challenging issues for researchers in our field. In order to understand personal attitudes toward communication and information technology (CIT), some researchers attempt to identify user perceptions of efficacy, anxiety, satisfaction, and usefulness, based on attitude factors. We discuss some of the primary research findings related to user att…
