Psychology-related research in Translation Studies (TS) has been conducted from various vantage points. The common denominator in all such research is their empirical orientation, which qualifies them to fit within the paradigm of Descriptive Translation Studies (Ehrensberger-Dow et al., 2013). Innovation and Expansion in Translation Process Research attempts to extend the entirety of such psychology-related research in TS. This edited volume consists of an introductory chapter written by the co-editors, Isabel Lacruz and Riitta Jääskeläinen, who are known for their work in the field of cognitive translation studies. The next 11 chapters are authored or co-authored by 23 contributors. The book chapters are based on selected papers from the panel “New Directions on Cognitive and Empirical Translation Research” at the 2015 IATIS Congress (p. 1).
