ANALYSIS AND FORMING DATABASE OF TEXT COMPOSING PROCESS BY J.S.L. STUDENTS

为了调查JSL学生在使用键盘输入日语时所犯的错误类型，我们拍摄了他们在用日语对计算机显示屏上的问题做出回答时的显示情况。我们对409名JSL学生的输入过程进行了录像，记录了大约24,000个输入更正样本，并建立了输入更正数据库。其中一半以上是对打字错误的更正，另一方面约有7000个可用于语法分析。通过我们的分析，我们得到了一些关于日语助词使用的结果。将在不久的将来进行进一步的分析。

In order to investigate the types of errors which J.S.L. students make when they type in Japanese using a keyboard, we video-taped the display while they are typing their responses in Japanese to questions given on the computer display. We video-taped the input process of 409 J.S.L. students.About 24,000 samples of input correction have been recorded and we have created the database of input corrections. More than half of them are the corrections of typing error, on the other hand about 7,000 of them can be used for grammatical analysis. Some results concerning to the usage of Japanese particles by J.S.L. students were obtained from our analysis. Further analysis are to be made in the near future.
