Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Automated Program Repair (APR) is a method of automatically correcting errors in a program without human intervention, and APR for syntax errors in particular has been shown to have a certain level of performance for correcting programs created by novice programmers. However, existing studies have not evaluated APR for syntax errors considering the process of editing programs for tasks by novice programmers.In this study, we show the effective use cases and issues of APR for syntax errors in order to support the trial-and-error process that occurs when novice programmers tackle programming tasks. For this purpose, we collected time-series data on the editing process of novice programmers and investigated the relationship between the editing process and the correction of syntax errors by APR. In this study, we show that novice programmers may generate new syntactic errors in the process of correcting logical errors even after the program has been compiled. We also show that the APR method for syntax errors poses a challenge to novice programmers when they compile their programs for the first time or when they are correcting logical errors.
