Abstract(in English) Possibility of real-time subtitling of news programs was considered for people with impaired hearing . Before we try to realize the system, we need to know the effectiveness and preferred format of subtitling. In order to evaluate the comprehensibility of real-time subtitling, subjects with impaired hearing were shown a short news program with subtitles, and their comprehension of its contents was subsequently tested. Results indicated that subjects performed about as well on average after viewing a program with subtitles as people with normal hearing did after viewing a program with sound, and better than after viewing a program with neither, suggesting that real-time subtitling was effective for people with impaired hearing.
