Part III: Evaluation of Task Statements for Performance Domains | Simultaneous Interpretation

This is the third section of Part III. As in the previous section, you will be asked to rate the tasks associated with each of the three identified performance domains for a judiciary interpreter. Each task will be rated on three dimensions: Importance, Criticality, and Frequency. There is a definition key on the left, or you may refer to Part I: Definitions, for more detailed information about the rating scales.

• Importance: the degree to which knowledge and ability of a task in the performance domain is essential to the job performance of a minimally qualified judiciary interpreter
  

• Criticality: the degree to which adverse effects could result if the minimally qualified judiciary interpreter was not able to perform a task in the performance domain
  

• Frequency: the extent to which judiciary interpreters perform tasks associated with this performance domain

Fill out the task survey by clicking on the circle below the number that best respresents your answer. When you are finished, click on the "Submit" button to complete the survey. (If you make a mistake, clicking on the "Reset" button will clear the form.)
