Summary:

Scholars of education, psychology, communication, and language review the current thinking on translating cognitive representations into written language, commonly used research tools, and theory about the nature of cognitive and language representations. They make the case that translation is a higher-order executive function that is fundamental to the writing process. Their topics include evidence from language bursts, revision, and transcription for translation and its relation to other writing processes; longitudinal individual case studies of 20 children on writing treks in grades one through five; the multivariate assessment of processes in elementary students' written translation; using eye and pen movements to study the writing process; and translation in the context of theoretical writing system research.
