Interpreters face challenges because of the various role expectations that others have place on them and then adopt specific strategies to manage these conflicts. This study examines the conflicts in medical interpreters' role performances, the sources of these conflicts, and interpreters' strategies for resolving conflicts. It is based on in depth interviews with 26 medical interpreters from 17 languages in the midwestern area of the USA. The results showed that interpreters experienced four sources of conflicts in their role performances : a. others' communicative practices b. changes in participat dynamics c. institutional constraints, and d. unrealistic role expectations To resolve conflicts, interpreters justified their roles by identifying the source and location of an assignment, re (defining) the relationships and identities of the provides and the patient, and adopting specific communicative strategies and management of role conflicts.
