Abstract
Studies on the reception of blind and visually impaired people to the audio description of audiovisual products in the Arab world context are relatively scarce. This study quantitatively explores how the Jordanian audience with visual impairment reacted to the Jordanian Netflix drama series ‘Madrast Al-Rawabi LilBanat’ (AlRawabi School for Girls) with audio description. The data were collected from one hundred fifty-two participants using a 16-Likert scale item questionnaire that consists of five constructs, namely, Watching Series Habits, Technical Issues, Comprehension and Understanding, Attitude and Future Actions & Recommendations. The findings showed that the technical aspects, and the participants’ comprehension and understanding of the audio description significantly affected their attitudes. The findings of this study can be useful for translation training and streaming platforms. The researchers recommend further audio description research in the Arab world.
