# QE4PE Questionnaires
This folder contains the configurations and results of pre- and post-task questionnaires used in the QE4PE project. Questionnaires were created using the Qualtrics platform. For every questionnaire, the following files are available:
- `{{QUESTIONNAIRE_ID}}_config.json`: the configuration file mapping output columns to questions and available options.
- `{{QUESTIONNAIRE_ID}}_results.csv`: contains the answers collected from the participants. The file contains preprocessed entries to facilitate further analyses on the results. Answer values are mapped to the original questions and options using the configuration file.
## Pre-task Questionnaire
The `pretask` questionnaire was administered to translators **before** the `pretask` to ensure their proficiency with post-editing MT and other computer-assisted translation tools, and collect their opinions regarding post-editing before the task.
## Post-task Questionnaires
After the `main` task, translators were asked to complete the `posttask` questionnaire. This questionnaire aimed to collect feedback on the post-editing task, the MT system, the interface and the highlighting.
Two versions of the `posttask` questionnaire were used: one named `posttask_highlight` for translator editing highlighted segments in the main task (for `oracle`, `supervised` and `unsupervised` modalities), and one named `posttask_no_highlight` for the `no_highlight` modality. The **only differences** between the two versions are the presence of several questions related to the highlighting feature (`highlight_statement` 1 to 8 in `posttask_highlight_config.json`), which were replaced by a smaller subset of speculative questions (`highlight_statement` 1 to 3 in `posttask_no_highlight_config.json`) for the no-highlight setting, and the formulation of open-ended highlight questions (`highlight_like` and `highlight_dislike` in both configurations).
