Abstract
This paper presents the results of an exploratory-experimental study that used eye-tracking, keylogging, free retrospective verbal protocols as well as prospective and satisfaction questionnaires as its main tools for collecting and analyzing data. The theoretical framework builds on different areas, such as empirical-experimental studies with sign languages (Emmorey, Thompson, and Colvin, 2009; Wehrmeyer, 2014) and translation process research (TPR) studies (Jakobsen and Jensen, 2008; Pavlovi? and Jensen, 2009; Hvelplund, 2017, among others), whichare based on concepts and principles of cognitive studies. The results, discussions and analysis corroborate the validity and productivity of themodel of the experimental-exploratory design adopted to address the issues under investigation, as well as to bring relevant contributions to the branches of Translation Studies in which they are inserted and to raise questions for future studies in the area.
