Abstract

This study aims to explore how text types and staff size in the pre-translation affect translation project quality. SPSS20.0 software is a commonly used software for data analysis, featuring with complex statistical algorithms but simple operation and clear interface. Hence, statistical survey and one-way Anova test are used to analyze the research data. Results show that in pre-translation in the same project, the more editable texts, the better translation project quality. While the bigger staff size, the lower translation project quality. Therefore, optimizing the text types and reducing staff in pre-translation can ensure translation quality and enhance project management efficiency. But the project management process is complicated, and how to decide the pre-translation management strategy according to the risk preference of an enterprise to improve the project quality is also worthy of further study.
