본문내용

All human communication needs a set of various and complicated cognitive activities. Likewise, any translation is intrinsically a complex cognitive activity that needs individuals to perform knowledge and abilities in the translation process. (Alves, & Albir, 2010, p. 28). Beyond the limitation of simply comparing ST and TT translation results and finding deviations, Process-oriented research has been conducted to understand the complex cognitive process of translators, including what decisions translators produce and employ translation strategies. In this regard, Process-oriented research is closely tied with cognitive translation study (CTS), which provides a broad contribution of the disciplines for translation study.
In this regard, this paper will discuss the contribution of process-oriented research to translation studies and theories, consisting of four body sections; section 1 is about the meaning of process-oriented research and its main characteristics.
