Abstract
The aim of this talk is to provide comparative empirical insights into the quality of machine translation post-edited texts produced by master’s students in translation. The objective is three-fold: (1) assess the overall quality of post-edited texts produced by the same students over a period of two years (master’s degree), (2) compare the error types most commonly found in student post-edited texts, also adopting a longitudinal approach and (3) examine the impact of a task variable, namely the time taken to complete the task (in minutes), known as temporal effort (Krings 2001), to assess whether it impacts quality. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first longitudinal study on the topic.
