dc.description.abstractThe present research in two phases investigated how students of English translation in Iranian universities tended to approach the source text with socio-political content critically for representations of embedded ideologies during English to Persian translation. The first phase was a quantitative study involving a self-designed questionnaire instrument and a purposive sample population of 469 participants. The second phase was a mixed-methods design study using think aloud protocol data from a criterion sample population of 10 participants. The results demonstrated that the Iranian students of English translation tended to explore the source discourse for embedded ideologies at the more tangible and concrete levels of the source discourse, whereas the more abstract levels were referred to relatively less often. Evidence was provided that English and Persian translation pedagogy in Iranian universities barely involved ideological analysis of discourse due for translation, and it has failed to have a constant and consistent influence on how the trainee translators cope with inscribed ideologies in the source discourse. The study showed that there was no significant difference between the approach of the male and the female trainee translators in exploring source discourse for ideological representations. The findings also revealed that the translators with high quality translation performance explored the source discourse considerably more frequently and delved deeper at more abstract levels of the source discourse for hidden ideologies than the translators with mediocre quality translation performance. Practical implications of the study and recommendations for further research are discussed.en_US
