News translation, which is often known as news transediting, which is concerned with the translation of materials for print and/or online mass media, has long stimulated interest within the field of translation studies. The present paper explores the strategies of transediting the terms used for describing the US dollar in the websites of four news channels, namely: Alarabiya, Aljazeera, BBC and CNN between Arabic and English from the first of July 2022 to the thirty-first of December 2022. The paper conducts triangulational analysis to identify the type and frequency of the transediting strategies used in each channel, present how certain examples of each strategy are adopted and demonstrate the similarities and differences in the type and frequency of the transediting strategies employed between the channels. The paper argues that the choice of the transediting strategy is based on the type of audience, context, the channel’s policy and the type of information intended for delivery. This paper offers a baseline for exploring the strategies of transediting the terms used for describing the US dollar in both Arabic and English news websites of the aforementioned channels, which may have implications for exploring other transediting strategies used in other news websites of different channels broadcast in different languages.
新闻翻译,也就是通常所说的新闻转译,涉及印刷和/或网络大众媒体材料的翻译,长期以来在翻译研究领域引起了人们的兴趣。本文探讨了四个新闻频道网站中描述美元的术语的转译策略,这四个新闻频道是:Alarabiya, Aljazeera, Alarabiya, Aljazeera, Alarabiya, Aljazeera, Alarabiya:从 2022 年 7 月 1 日到 2022 年 12 月 31 日,阿拉比亚、半岛电视台、英国广播公司和有线电视新闻网的阿拉伯语和英语之间的转换策略。论文通过三角分析,确定了每个频道所使用的转码策略的类型和频率,介绍了每个策略的某些实例是如何被采用的,并展示了不同频道在转码策略的类型和频率上的异同。本文认为,选择转场策略的依据是受众类型、背景、频道政策和要传递的信息类型。本文为探讨上述频道的阿拉伯语和英语新闻网站中描述美元的术语的转用策略提供了一个基线,这可能对探讨以不同语言广播的不同频道的其他新闻网站中使用的其他转用策略产生影响。

Primary emotions among the populace during global health crises, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, provide valuable insights. Guided by appraisal theories of emotions, this study explores emotional segmentation by mapping primary emotions related to COVID-19 and investigating their impact on cognitive and behavioral outcomes, including risk perceptions, efficacy beliefs, behavioral intentions, prevention behaviors, and information seeking/avoidance.Study 1 surveyed young adults (N = 1,368) to investigate their emotions about COVID-19 and examine the effect of these emotions on risk perceptions, efficacy beliefs, and behavioral intentions regarding mask-wearing and physical distancing. Study 2 replicated Study 1 with a quota-based national sample of U.S. adults (N = 8,454) and further tested the effect of primary emotions on preventive behaviors and information seeking/avoidance.Results indicated that most people experienced negative emotions, such as sadness, anger, and anxiety. These emotions were associated with varying levels of risk perceptions, efficacy beliefs, behavioral intentions, actual behaviors, and information seeking/avoidance. Notably, across both studies, anxious individuals demonstrated more favorable health-related perceptions and behavioral outcomes compared to those experiencing anger.These findings offer insights into the emotional experiences of individuals during the COVID-19 pandemic and highlight the significant impact of these emotions on risk perceptions and health-related behaviors. Understanding these emotional responses can inform public health strategies and communication efforts during health crises.
全球健康危机(如 COVID-19 大流行)期间民众的主要情绪提供了宝贵的见解。在情绪评估理论的指导下,本研究通过绘制与 COVID-19 相关的主要情绪图并调查其对认知和行为结果的影响(包括风险感知、功效信念、行为意向、预防行为和信息寻求/回避),来探索情绪细分。研究 2 采用基于配额的美国成年人全国样本(N = 8,454)复制了研究 1,并进一步测试了主要情绪对预防行为和信息寻求/回避的影响。结果表明,大多数人都经历过悲伤、愤怒和焦虑等负面情绪。这些情绪与不同程度的风险认知、功效信念、行为意向、实际行为和信息寻求/回避有关。值得注意的是,在这两项研究中,与经历愤怒的人相比,焦虑的人表现出更有利的健康相关认知和行为结果。这些研究结果提供了对 COVID-19 大流行期间个人情绪体验的见解,并强调了这些情绪对风险认知和健康相关行为的重要影响。了解这些情绪反应可以为健康危机期间的公共卫生策略和沟通工作提供参考。

While the repercussions of the novel Coronavirus or COVID-19 have been felt across the world over the past few years, the impact has not been consistent. Instead, it has been mediated by the systemic ways in which existing social and structural disparities have failed vulnerable populations globally. Drawing on document analysis and fifteen in-depth interviews (n=15) conducted among the key stakeholders in the city of San Antonio, South Central Texas, this paper reveals how structural violence worsened during the COVID-19 pandemic resulting in making it a syndemic pandemic of high rates of deaths and illnesses among the most vulnerable and disadvantaged groups. A grounded theory approach particularly revealed themes of social suffering such as low income and pre-existing medical conditions that contributed to higher mortality rates, the presence of racism and misinformation, the importance of trustworthy communication channels, and streamlined collaborative partnerships with clear and effective communication through all levels of the government, especially when communicating scientific information.
过去几年,新型冠状病毒(COVID-19)的影响波及全球,但这种影响并不一致。相反,全球范围内现有的社会和结构性差异对弱势人群造成了系统性的伤害。本文通过对德克萨斯州中南部圣安东尼奥市主要利益相关者的文件分析和 15 次深入访谈(n=15),揭示了在 COVID-19 大流行期间,结构性暴力是如何恶化的,从而使其成为最弱势和处境最不利群体高死亡率和高患病率的综合流行病。基础理论方法特别揭示了社会苦难的主题,如低收入和原有的医疗条件导致了较高的死亡率、种族主义和错误信息的存在、值得信赖的沟通渠道的重要性,以及通过各级政府进行清晰有效的沟通,特别是在传播科学信息时简化协作伙伴关系。

The integration of social media into political discourse is becoming the norm, facilitating citizen engagement and amplifying voices across the Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). This study centered on a literature review on the role of social media in political participation within the region. Through exploration across three databases, 50 articles were identified, with 42% of these closely related to the research focus and categorized under five distinct themes. Findings reveal various perspectives on the impact of social media on political engagement, with scholars offering different interpretations on its influence. Furthermore, majority of research underscores the role of social media in mobilizing protests and revolutionary movements driven by heightened participation observed in some SSA countries. Social media platforms are increasingly perceived as avenues to express opinions on pertinent issues contesting unfavorable government actions. Thus, this study posits the emergence of a “New Democratisation in Sub-Saharan Africa,” propelled by the positive utilization of social media in political spheres.
在撒哈拉以南非洲地区(SSA),将社交媒体融入政治话语正在成为一种常态,它促进了公民参与并扩大了声音。本研究围绕社交媒体在该地区政治参与中的作用展开文献综述。通过在三个数据库中进行搜索,确定了 50 篇文章,其中 42% 与研究重点密切相关,并按五个不同主题进行了分类。研究结果揭示了社交媒体对政治参与影响的各种观点,学者们对其影响做出了不同的解释。此外,大多数研究都强调了社交媒体在动员抗议活动和革命运动方面的作用,在一些撒哈拉以南非洲国家,人们的参与度有所提高。社交媒体平台日益被视为就相关问题发表意见、对不利政府行为提出质疑的渠道。因此,本研究认为,社交媒体在政治领域的积极应用推动了 "撒哈拉以南非洲新民主化 "的出现。

Although retelling as a technique to assess narration has been widely used, the input modality seems to impact in different ways on the elicited text, generating a debate about the biases that may appear. To contribute to this discussion, the objective of this study is to describe the development of conceptual subordination and its forms of coding in the oral stories of Spanish-speaking children as well as its relationship with the source text. The stories of 28 five-year-old Chilean school children collected through a retelling task were studied. The analysis consisted of firstly assessing the production of conceptual subordination through the identification of asymmetric links between states of affairs. Then, the encoding forms that instantiated these links were classified. Finally, indices were constructed and applied to compare the children’s texts with the source text. During the comparative analysis with the input, three qualitative categories emerged: similar production, reformulation and new link. The results showed that the participants’ stories present significantly less production of conceptual subordination link than the source text. However, the children were able to create new links that were not presented in the story and reformulated others, as evidence of an interpretive process that goes beyond the mere reproduction of the input in these types of tasks. Regarding the encoding forms, the results were very similar between the source text and the children’s text without significant differences. Both in source texts and children’s texts, the prototypical forms of Spanish dominated, allowing us to conclude a possible input bias.
尽管复述作为一种评估叙述的技术已被广泛使用,但输入模式似乎以不同的方式影响着所激发的文本,从而引发了关于可能出现的偏差的争论。为了促进这一讨论,本研究旨在描述西班牙语儿童口头故事中概念从属性的发展及其编码形式,以及它与源文本之间的关系。本研究通过复述任务收集了 28 名五岁智利学童的故事。分析包括首先通过识别事态之间的不对称联系来评估概念从属性的产生。然后,对实现这些联系的编码形式进行分类。最后,构建并应用指数来比较儿童文本和源文本。在与输入文本的比较分析中,出现了三个定性类别:相似的制作、重新表述和新的链接。结果表明,与原文相比,参与者的故事在概念从属联系方面的表现明显较少。然而,孩子们能够创造出故事中没有出现过的新联系,并对其他联系进行重新表述,这证明在这类任务中,解释过程不仅仅是对输入内容的复制。在编码形式方面,原文文本和儿童文本的结果非常相似,没有明显差异。无论是源文本还是儿童文本,西班牙文的原型形式都占主导地位,这让我们得出了可能存在输入偏差的结论。

Over the last few decades, the English language has become prevalent throughout the world in the domains of international diplomacy, business, research, and technology and is becoming increasingly important in many other areas. Much research into the use of English as a lingua franca has focused on its role in fostering communication across linguistic and cultural boundaries. Recently, however, concerns have been raised about the additional cognitive load that having to function in a non-native language can place on interlocutors. In an international survey, 883 professional language mediators (i.e., translators, conference interpreters, and community interpreters) provided details about their experiences dealing with the English produced by native vs. non-native speakers and identified features and difficulties associated with processing the respective input as well as their coping strategies. Although they acknowledged that both native and non-native speakers produce English that is difficult to deal with, the language mediators largely agreed that the latter were much more likely to do so, with vocabulary use, word choices, and sentence structures identified as particularly problematic. The main coping strategies for all three groups were to really concentrate on the message being conveyed, try to improve the formulation of it for the target audience, and intervene in the communication situation for clarification if possible. Self-regulation and reliance on information external to the situation were also mentioned as very important. Although almost half of the participants said that they preferred to work with native speaker produced output, many expressed no preference. The study results have important implications for various situations involving non-native speakers of the language being used for communication.
在过去的几十年里,英语在国际外交、商业、研究和技术等领域已在全世界普及,并在许多其他领域变得越来越重要。对英语作为通用语言的研究主要集中在其在促进跨语言和跨文化交流方面的作用。然而,最近有人担心,必须用非母语进行交流会给对话者带来额外的认知负担。在一项国际调查中,883 名专业语言调解员(即笔译员、会议口译员和社区口译员)详细介绍了他们处理母语与非母语英语的经验,并指出了与处理各自输入相关的特点和困难,以及他们的应对策略。尽管他们承认母语者和非母语者都会产生难以处理的英语,但语言调解员基本上都认为后者更有可能产生难以处理的英语,尤其是词汇使用、词语选择和句子结构方面的问题。三组人的主要应对策略都是真正集中精力于所要传达的信息,努力为目标受众改进信息的表述,并在可能的情况下介入交流场合进行澄清。自我调节和依靠外部信息也被认为是非常重要的。尽管近一半的参与者表示,他们更喜欢使用母语使用者的产出,但许多人表示没有偏好。研究结果对涉及非母语者的各种交际场合具有重要意义。

Stakeholder involvement and preferences are pivotal in the decision-making process for landscape protection within a specific context. However, many decisions regarding landscape protection options still rely on management choices with little or no consideration of all stakeholders. Previous scholars emphasized the importance of establishing an integrated framework to gain an adequate understanding of the process of stakeholders’ decision-making in landscape protection. Therefore, a systematic literature review was conducted on the topic of stakeholders’ involvement and preferences in landscape protection decision-making. This review included research articles published from 2013 to 2023 using two databases and registers, namely, Science Direct and Google Scholar. A total of 110 research articles were identified and qualified for review based on the screening requirements, with an additional 15 documents for theories and backgrounds to provide a better understanding and outcomes for the study. The results of this study were organized based on concepts from the resulting research articles and were integrated to propose a conceptual framework for Stakeholders’ involvement and preferences in landscape protection. Additionally, this study’s findings indicate the significance of incorporating diverse stakeholders and their preferences in landscape protection processes to ensure awareness of inclusivity in decision-making and secure long-term support.
利益相关者的参与和偏好在特定背景下的景观保护决策过程中至关重要。然而,许多景观保护方案的决策仍然依赖于管理选择,很少或根本没有考虑所有利益相关者。之前的学者强调了建立一个综合框架以充分了解景观保护中利益相关者决策过程的重要性。因此,我们就利益相关者在景观保护决策中的参与和偏好这一主题进行了系统的文献综述。该综述包括 2013 年至 2023 年发表的研究文章,使用了两个数据库和登记簿,即 Science Direct 和 Google Scholar。根据筛选要求,共有 110 篇研究文章被确定并符合审查条件,另有 15 篇文献的理论和背景为研究提供了更好的理解和成果。本研究的成果是根据所产生的研究文章中的概念进行整理,并进行整合,从而提出利益相关者在景观保护中的参与和偏好的概念框架。此外,本研究的结果表明,在景观保护过程中纳入不同利益相关者及其偏好具有重要意 义,可确保在决策过程中的包容性意识,并确保长期支持。

Gaze alternation predicts inclusive next-speaker selection: evidence from eyetracking 目光交替可预测包容性的下一位发言人选择:来自眼动跟踪的证据

Next-speaker selection refers to the practices conversationalists rely on to designate who should speak next. Speakers have various methods available to them to select a next speaker. Certain actions, however, systematically co-select more than one particular participant to respond. These actions include asking “open-floor” questions, which are addressed to more than one recipient and that more than one recipient are eligible to answer. Here, next-speaker selection is inclusive. How are these questions multimodally designed? How does their multimodal design differ from the design of “closed-floor” questions, in which just one participant is selected as next speaker and where next-speaker selection is exclusive? Based on eyetracking data collected in naturalistic conversation, this study demonstrates that unlike closed-floor questions, open-floor questions can be predicted based on the speaker’s gaze alternation during the question. The discussion highlights cases of gaze alternation in open-floor questions and exhaustively explores deviant cases in closed-floor questions. It also addresses the functional relation of gaze alternation and gaze selection, arguing that the two selection techniques may collide, creating disorderly turntaking due to a fundamental change in participation framework from focally dyadic to inclusive. Data are in British and American English.
下一位发言者的选择是指对话者指定下一位发言者的做法。发言者有各种方法来选择下一位发言者。然而,某些行为会系统地共同选择不止一位特定与会者进行回应。这些行动包括提出 "开放式 "问题,这些问题是向不止一个人提出的,而且不止一个人有资格回答。在这里,下一位发言者的选择是包容性的。这些问题是如何进行多模式设计的?它们的多模态设计与 "封闭式 "问题的设计有何不同?"封闭式 "问题只选择一位参与者作为下一位发言者,下一位发言者的选择是排他性的。根据在自然会话中收集到的眼动跟踪数据,本研究证明,与封闭式提问不同,开放式提问可以根据发言者在提问过程中的目光交替来预测。研究重点讨论了开放式提问中的目光交替情况,并详尽探讨了封闭式提问中的偏差情况。文章还探讨了目光交替和目光选择的功能关系,认为这两种选择技巧可能会发生碰撞,从而造成无序的转折,因为参与框架发生了根本性的变化,从以二元对立为中心转向了以包容性为中心。数据采用英式英语和美式英语。
