dc.description.abstractAudio description (AD), the transfer of visual information into spoken language, has enjoyed little empirical research attention (cf. Galiano/Portalier 2010). This is in part due to the heterogeneity of target audiences, which makes it difficult to evaluate the reception of AD. This paper uses the semantic differential (Osgood/Suci/Tannenbaum 1957), a method of quantitatively analyzing affective word meanings, to compare visually impaired subjects’ reception of AD films with sighted viewers’ reception of the corresponding original versions. In our investigation, participants reveal how they perceive aspects of two films by providing a rating on a scale between two opposite adjectives. The results show that the main characters or concepts of the films are often perceived in similar ways by sighted and visually impaired people if the descriptive attributes are concrete (e.g. aggressive). More abstract attributes (e.g. ‘beautiful’) are perceived differently by the two target audiences. Our model can be used to evaluate audio description and to ensure that, where possible, visually impaired and sighted recipients have a similar experience of the film in question.de_CH
