Tailored Transcript Format Guidelines/Example

De-Identify Participants to Protect Anonymity*

Yes. Best practice. Often – legally required.

No. Not required at my institution/ethics requirement.

English Second Language Speakers/Strong Accents/Speech Difficulty*

For a variety of reasons, speakers can be hard to understand. Strong regional accents, English as a second language, or simply just speaking fast can mean the typist has to slow the audio down, and replay passages to decipher what is being said. The rate that we charge you must reflect this additional time.
