Abstract
In the present article, we provide an outline of a
diagnostic instrument for testing post-editing performance.
Although examples of such instruments are available,
empirical research is rarely used as the basis for testing
post-editing performance. It is hoped that our tool can
help facilitate the identification of suitable
translators/translation students for post-editing projects by
flagging knowledge, skills or attitudes relevant to postediting that is/are found to be lacking in candidates' postediting behaviour.
