主 题:fNIRS translation simultaneous interpreting small-world brain net work
摘 要:The aim of this study is to examine the small-world properties of functional brain networks inChinese to English simultaneous interpreting(SI)using functional near-infrared spectroscopy(INIRS),In particular,the fNIRS neuroimaging combined with complex network analysis wasperformed to extract the features of functional brain networks underling three translationstrategies associated with Chinese to English SI:transcodingthat takes theshortcutlinkingtranslation equivalents between Chinese and the English,code-mixingthat basically does notinvolve blingual procesing,andtransphrasingn that takes the long routeinvolving amonolingual processing of meaning in Chinese and then another monolingual processing ofmeaning in *** results demonstrated that the small-world net work topology was able todistinguish well bet ween the transcoding,code-mixing and transphrasing strategies related toChinese to English SI.
