Project title:
The professional interpreter as an active part in clinical consultations

Job assignments
The use of interpreters change the circumstances of the clinical encounter and pose a challenge for the care provider and the interpreter to form a communicative situation that will result in a successful communication. A professional interpreter is expected to translate and act in a neutral manner and trustworthy way. The conduit role is emphasized as an objective role where the interpreter acts in a neutral, faithful and machine-like manner. The interpreter is trained to create an illusion of a dyadic patient-care provider communication. However, translation is more complex than just a question-answer affair.

The overall aim is to describe and develop the translation process and to perform and evaluate an intervention giving interpreters an increased part in clinical consultations in primary health care. The project implies changing the traditional interpreter role as a conduit between the patient and the care provider into an active part in the clinical encounter. The project is designed as participatory research, developing the intervention in cooperation with professional interpreters and health care professionals and implemented in primary health care. Data are collected with mixed methods.

PhD positions are financed mainly through education grants during the first two years and employment as doctoral students during the last two years and pertains to a doctoral degree.

Eligibility
The general entry requirement is fulfilled if you have either 1, a second cycle degree (usually described as a masters degree) or 2, completed courses at an academic level corresponding to at least 240 credits. At least 60 of these credits (corresponding to 1 year of full-time studies) must be at second cycle level. You also need to fulfill the specific entry requirement which is an English proficiency requirement equal to the Swedish course Engelska B.

Assessment
After the application deadline has passed, an initial assessment of the candidates eligibility is made at the faculty office and sent to the project supervisor for selection. The process can then take up to 6 months before a candidate is selected.
