ABSTRACT

In light of the numerous findings of this study, it seems appropriate to summarize the main results in one last chapter. Although this has already been done within the individual data analysis in Chapters 6 and 7, the most important aspects of this investigation will be discussed here in context. This discussion is based, first, on the type of interactions observed between the research attributes of the study and the participants’ web search behaviors, and second, on the relationship between said behaviors and translation problem-solving performance. Regarding the latter, the summary of the findings will be further complemented by an assessment of the possible implications of the study for teaching. Finally, some methodological observations will be made and possible avenues for future research proposed.
