| Abstract: |
This study investigates how rhetorical relations contribute to the perceived cognitive difficulty of a text used for consecutive interpreting. Drawing on Rhetorical Structure Theory, the study applies qualitative thematic analysis to rhetorical relations identified in an expository speech. After first-cycle coding of rhetorical relations using MAXQDA, a second-cycle analysis was conducted to examine how clusters of relations impose distinct cognitive demands on interpreters. The findings indicate that cognitive difficulty arises not from individual rhetorical relations in isolation, but from configurations of relations. These results suggest that rhetorical structure plays a crucial role in shaping cognitive effort in consecutive interpreting, extending existing cognitive models by demonstrating how discourse-level organization contributes to processing difficulty beyond surface linguistic complexity. |
