Parallel Abstract 〈TOP〉

This study explores the perception of the simultaneous interpreting (SI) quality of accented Mandarin interpreters in Taiwan. Four hundred Taiwanese were recruited online to participate in a controlled experiment. The participants were randomly and evenly assigned to listen to one of the four versions of SI which differed only in accents: Taiwan Mandarin, Chinese Standard Mandarin, Malaysian Mandarin, and US-accented Mandarin. They were then required to rate the SI quality in a nine-item questionnaire. Optional comment sections were also provided. The ratings were analyzed quantitatively and the qualitative comments were analyzed qualitatively. 
Results show that SI quality were evaluated poorer in comprehensibility and performance satisfaction with increasing markedness of accent. The Chinese Standard Mandarin accent was viewed as the appropriate stylistic choice due to its “standard” prestige on one hand, but viewed as mispronunciation by some on the other hand. The Malaysian Mandarin accent was viewed as the most favorable among all three non-Taiwanese Mandarin accents for comprehensibility and performance satisfaction. It was likely due to the accent’s perceived similarities with Taiwan Mandarin.  The American-accented Mandarin was rated most unfavorably for its perceived lowest comprehensibility, but the participants generally showed encouragement for the US interpreter. A possible explanation is that the participants attributed the perceived poorer SI performance to an external factor beyond the interpreter’s control—the interpreter’s non-native identity, identified through her accent. The key findings of this study shows that accent has observable impacts on interpreting quality perception.  Interpreters in the market, interpreting educators and trainers, and interpreting students need to be aware of such impact. It is also recommended that they adopt an accent as neutral as possible to cater to the demands of interpreting users and clients.
