Establishing rigour in a between-method investigation of SI expertise
-
Adelina Hild
Abstract
The paper presents an experimental investigation of expert discourse processing during simultaneous interpreting (SI) and critically examines how rigour was achieved at several stages of the research process: sampling, standardizing the SI task, and data management. Between-method triangulation is introduced as a means of offering completeness, enabling the researcher to approach the complexity of SI expertise in a more proximal manner.
