Today, a translation job does not only mean transferring content from one language to another by utilizing one's own knowledge of two languages and subject matter expertise. Today, translation often means working with suggestions from various resources, including machine translation. The popularity of machine translation post-editing (MTPE) as a form of translation is growing. That is why this sklil should be acquired by translation students prior to entering the market. In order to work with machine translation efficiently, not only knowledge of the basic principles of how machine translation engines and translation technology work is needed, but also being able to assess the relevance of each linguistic edit with regards to the assigned instructions and purpose of the translated text. The aim of this master's thesis is to analyze linguistic edits carried out during an MTPE job from English to Czech. Identified edits are then classified, resulting in a list of linguistic edit categories in English-to-Czech MTPE. KEY WORDS MTPE, PEMT, post-editing, machine translation, classification, edits

This study investigates how translation self-efficacy and metacognitive regulation may predict performance in the emerging translation practice of machine translation post-editing (MTPE) by determining the existence and degree of relationships between self-efficacy, metacognitive regulation strategies, and MTPE performance among translation learners in EFL contexts (Chinese speakers who learn English as a foreign language), as well as how they contextualize the condition and state of mind of student translators completing MTPE tasks. Examining these key variables provides theoretical insights into the cognitive processes involved in MTPE and practical implications for developing skilled translation post-editors. This study's conceptual framework is grounded in Bandura's social cognitive theory (SCT), a causal model where self-efficacy directly and indirectly impacts human behavior through mediating processes like outcome expectations, social support, and self-regulation. Multi-item scales consisting of translation self-efficacy and metacognitive regulation as well as an MTPE test were employed to examine the relationships between the predictor variables and the criterion variable. Multiple linear regression was adopted for data analysis to assess the fit of adapted scales and determine how much variance in MTPE performance was accounted for by individual and combination of predictor variables. Results indicated that metacognitive regulation plays a statistically significant role in MTPE performance, even though the overall predictive power of the model remains moderate. The findings provide implications for improving student performance in MTPE training and contribute to the relatively new body of emerging literature regarding translator self-efficacy, metacognitive abilities, and their development.

La importancia de la Jornada Atípica Acumulativa en la minería en nuestro país radica en que facilita mayores niveles de producción y utiliza para ello la fuerza laboral de los trabajadores mineros en ciclos de trabajo (o también llamados sistemas de trabajo) que consisten en períodos acumulativos de trabajo y que son compensados también con períodos acumulativos de descanso, pero para ello debe cumplirse con diversos parámetros constitucionales (Constitución Política de 1993, Sentencias del Tribunal Constitucional y Convenio 01 de la Organización Internacional del Trabajo - OIT) así como con diversos parámetros legales (TUO de la Ley de Jornada y su Reglamento, Consolidación de los Descansos Remunerados y su Reglamento) y otros parámetros interpretativos sumamente importantes (Directivas e Informes del Ministerio de Trabajo – MTPE). De contar con dichos parámetros la jornada atípica acumulativa en la minería será constitucionalmente y legalmente válida. Más, luego de precisar la constitucionalidad y legalidad de este tipo de jornada de trabajo, corresponde ahora definir algunos aspectos importantes de casuística respecto al cálculo de la Jornada Atípica Acumulativa en la Minería que servirán para despejar algunas dudas en este tema poco estudiado aún en el Derecho Laboral y en el Derecho Minero. Y finalmente corresponde desarrollar una propuesta normativa que regule todos los aspectos necesarios para la aplicación de este tipo especial de jornadas de trabajo. / The importance of Atypical Cumulative Working Day in mining in our country is that it facilitates increased production and uses for this labor force miners to work cycles (also called work systems) consisting of periods cumulative work and are also offset by cumulative periods of rest, but this should be met with various constitutional parameters (1993 Constitution, Constitutional Court rulings and Convention 01 of the International Labour Organization - ILO) as well as various legal parameters (Journey Act and Regulations, Consolidation of Remunerated Breaks and Regulations) and other highly important interpretative parameters (Directives and Reports of the Ministry of Labour - MLEP). To have these parameters cumulative atypical journey in mining will be constitutionally and legally valid. Moreover, after specifying the constitutionality and legality of this type of working day, it is now necessary to define some important aspects of casuistry regarding the calculation of the Cumulative Atypical Working Day in Mining that will serve to clear up some doubts in this little studied subject still in the Labor Law and Mining Law. And finally it corresponds to develop a normative proposal that regulates all the necessary aspects for the application of this special type of working days. / Tesis
