THE CONSTRUCT OF METACOGNITION IN THE PROCESSING OF TRANSLATION PROBLEMS AND ITS MEASUREMENT

Journal Title: Topics In Education, Culture and Social Development (TECSD) - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 1

Abstract

This article focuses on metacognition in translation by presenting an in-depth discussion of the construct and its measurement. Our discussion begins with an interdisciplinary definition of metacognition in translation, followed by a methodological analysis of how to measure such metacognition activities, focusing on internal measure and external measure as well. We find that internal measure depends on off-line methods to collect self-evaluated data, while external measure depends on on-line methods for data-collecting at different translation problem-solving stages. Besides, triangulation of research perspectives brings about abundant data, leading us closer to what is exactly happening in the problem-processing process of translation
