Do you work with patient-reported outcome measures that need translating? We know how important accurate translations that you can rely on every time are. With Linguistic validation, you can rest assured that all your audience interpret the information and data you offer in the same way. When you’re conducting research across multiple cultures and languages, it’s a vital step for ensuring that the gathered information can be compared without errors occurring due to misunderstandings.
Within the medical and clinical industry, there are lots of technical vocabulary, industry terms, and nuances of languages that may not have a literal translation. Even when content has been translated this can mean inaccuracies occur, with sector-specific terms not reading well in the target language. Linguistic validation is the key to solving this problem.
Of course, there are other specialists and sectors that can encounter this problem too. It’s possible to use linguistic validation methods in other areas – providing content to the target audience with no distortion.
Usually, linguistic validation is used for translated patient-reported outcomes to actively test the new text with the target language group. It follows a set methodology but it is possible to transfer this process to other sectors to achieve content that doesn’t lose meaning, even when industry terms are used.
