摘要

在过去的十年里，字幕随着广播和宽带技术的发展而发展。如今，观众可以享受新的机会来定制字幕，以最好地满足他们的个人偏好或需求。本研究旨在确定最终用户的字幕设置偏好，调查这些设置是否对内容理解有影响，并探索两组参与者（65岁以下和65岁以上）的字幕可用性。在一项实验中，在参与者观看加泰罗尼亚公共广播公司TVC制作的点播电视纪录片之前和之后，有三个字幕特征可供定制：字幕的位置、方框和大小。结果证实了对底部和中间字幕的偏好。此外，虽然65岁以下人群对该系统的使用情况令人满意，但65岁以上人群的可用性水平不同，报告的能力和问题也不同。

Usability tests for personalised subtitles

Over the past decade, subtitles have developed along with broadcast and broadband technology. Viewers nowadays enjoy new opportunities to customize subtitles to best meet their personal preferences or needs. This study aims to identify end-user subtitle setting preferences, to investigate whether these settings have an effect on content comprehension, and to explore subtitle usability for two groups of participants, those under the age of 65 and those over 65. In an experiment, three subtitle features were open to customization: the position, the box and the size of the subtitle, before and after participants watched an on-demand TV documentary produced by the Catalan public broadcaster TVC. Results confirm a preference for bottom and medium subtitles. Furthermore, while the under 65 segment made satisfactory use of the system, the over 65 segment experienced different levels of usability and reported different capabilities and problems.

期刊介绍： Translation Spaces is a biannual, peer-reviewed, indexed journal that recognizes the global impact of translation. It envisions translation as multi-dimensional phenomena productively studied (from) within complex spaces of encounter between knowledge, values, beliefs, and practices. These translation spaces -virtual and physical- are multidisciplinary, multimedia, and multilingual. They are the frontiers being explored by scholars investigating where and how translation practice and theory interact most dramatically with the evolving landscape of contemporary globalization.
