520 _aHealth care professionals are becoming increasingly cognizant of the fact that the presence of an interpreter in meetings with migrants can improve communication and the therapeutic alliance. The interpreter’s presence modifies the therapeutic process and requires a great amount of accuracy between clinician and interpreter. This paper compares clinicians’ expectations of interpreters during clinical interviews and interpreters’ views on their role. In order to do this, the opinions of an interpreter group (N=5) were compared with those of a clinician group (N=8). The results show a significant degree of intragroup and intergroup heterogeneity in views about the interpreter’s role. Whereas clinicians seek personal investment from interpreters, the interpreters try to remain neutral and to focus on facilitating mutual understanding. This conflict is discussed in terms of interpreters’ training and degree of acculturation.
