Eye-tracking method

Abstract

The previous chapters have outlined the research background and reviewed relevant literature on translation styles. This chapter aims to present details of the research design in order to explore possible behavioral patterns in sight translation. Eye-tracking method will be the research tool in this project. In this chapter, I will first describe the indicators for each research question in Sect. 4.1. Following that, the process of data collection, including the recruitment of research participants, the application of the eye tracker, the selection of experimental stimuli, and the procedure of the sight translation task will be discussed in Sect. 4.2. Finally, the process of how the data collected in the present experiment will be analyzed will be discussed in Sect. 4.3.
