Firstly, we adopt a theoretical approach based on the main translator competence models. Secondly, we present students’ perceptions of the role of self-confidence in translator training from a qualitative study of focus groups. More specifically, we describe students’ perceptions of the attention given to self-confidence in translator training, the development of their self-confidence during their training, the factors influencing that development in the classroom and the effects that self-confidence may have on them.}, keywords = {Translator education}, keywords = {Qualitative study}, keywords = {Self-efficacy beliefs}, title = {Self-confidence and its role in translator training; the students' perspective}, doi = {10.1075/ata.18.07har}, author = {Haro Soler, María del Mar}, }
