(PDF) Action research in translation studies
Proceeding from accepted shared definitions of applied linguistics that stress its practical, real-world orientation and instrumentality, this article seeks to move the focus from the interdisciplinarity that has been identified as the nexus of translation studies in the past to how its applied branches should systematically engage with an emerging transdisciplinary research paradigm.

3.1 Action Research as a Translation Studies research model. On researching a particular object or phenomena, the first stage to be covered is that of choosing a research model. In order to do this, according to Beeby (2000: 44), one needs to "identify the object to be investigated and the reason for studying it.".

The aim of the paper is to define ARTS, localize it among major TS research models, present its components and characteristics and argument for its usefulness and relevance in translator training.
Applied translation studies and transdisciplinary action research
A conscious, systematic adoption of transdisciplinary action research, it is argued, can beneficially expand the repertoire of applied translation research at a time when both the profession of translation and translation studies itself are undergoing profound practice-oriented and conceptual transformations (Gambier 2019). 447 Gary Massey. 2021.

Transdisciplinarity in Applied Translation Studies: Towards Transdisciplinary Action Research in Translators' Workplaces Abstract Since the beginnings of translation studies, applied translation research has set out to address the practices, processes and products of translation in both work and education.

Writing from within the Translation Studies functionalist tradition, Nord's response seems apposite in the context of research translation, providing both insight and guidance.
Qualitative Research Methods in Translation Theory
How does a discipline think? When translation studies emerged as a discrete area of academic enquiry, James Holmes (1988), in a landmark paper, drew on Michael Mulkay (1969, p. 136) to argue that science moves forward by revealing "new areas of ignorance."He went on to provide a tentative mapping of research in the nascent field, dividing it into two branches, "pure" and "applied."
Application of Action Research in Translation Teaching
Abstract. Action research is a kind of systematical reflective activity and a recycle process as well, including planning, acting, observing and reflecting. Aiming at improving students' poor translation ability, the author has conducted a series of empirical translation teaching experiments based on the application of action research theory.

The project team realised that multiple IPIER cycles of action research allowed for rapid adaptation and change in the course, as per Cresswell's (2012, p.584) assertation that action research "occurs through spirals of reflection and action".Thus, each stage of the overarching cycle became an individual cycle, spiralling and connecting to inform the next stage of the overall action ...
