With a fluency-oriented approach to quality, it aims at presenting and discussing the results of an experiment designed so as to explore the impact of sentence length and complexity on quality in Turkish-English SI. In addition, the self-perceptions of interpreting students regarding their own interpreting performance obtained through post-experiment interviews will be discussed. In accordance with the objectives of the study, performance-related quality criteria rather than content-related quality criteria will be observed and fluency will be explored in terms of pauses, false starts, repairs, and repetitions. </span> <br> </p> <p> </p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="608" colspan="2" style="width:456.3pt;border:solid 1pt;border-top:none;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align: center;"> <b> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Information about Author(s)* </span> </b> </p> <p> <b> </b> </p> <b> </b> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="608" colspan="2" style="width:456.3pt;border:solid 1pt;border-top:none;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align: center;"> <b> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Author 1 </span> </b> </p> <p> <b> </b> </p> <b> </b> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="243" valign="top" style="width:182.5pt;border:solid 1pt;border-top:none;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Author (Last name, First name) </span> </p> <p> </p> </td> <td width="365" valign="top" style="width:273.8pt;border-top:none;border-left:none;border-bottom:solid 1pt;border-right:solid 1pt;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us"> Eraslan, Şeyda </span> </p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="243" valign="top" style="width:182.5pt;border:solid 1pt;border-top:none;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Affiliated institution (University) </span> </p> <p> </p> </td> <td width="365" valign="top" style="width:273.8pt;border-top:none;border-left:none;border-bottom:solid 1pt;border-right:solid 1pt;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">  </span> <span style="background-color: transparent;">Dokuz Eylul University </span> </p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="243" valign="top" style="width:182.5pt;border:solid 1pt;border-top:none;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Country </span> </p> <p> </p> </td> <td width="365" valign="top" style="width:273.8pt;border-top:none;border-left:none;border-bottom:solid 1pt;border-right:solid 1pt;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us"> Turkey </span> </p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="243" valign="top" style="width:182.5pt;border:solid 1pt;border-top:none;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Email address </span> </p> <p> </p> </td> <td width="365" valign="top" style="width:273.8pt;border-top:none;border-left:none;border-bottom:solid 1pt;border-right:solid 1pt;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">  </span> <span style="background-color: transparent;">seyda.eraslan@deu.edu.tr </span> </p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="243" valign="top" style="width:182.5pt;border:solid 1pt;border-top:none;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Department & Rank </span> </p> <p> </p> </td> <td width="365" valign="top" style="width:273.8pt;border-top:none;border-left:none;border-bottom:solid 1pt;border-right:solid 1pt;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">  </}, number={3}, publisher={Hacettepe University}
