Abstract

In the past, librarians have attempted to characterise, estimate and explain the behaviour of human beings who seek out their services and products. While these contributions may have been creatively original among librarians of the past, practitioners today have generally eschewed the psychological advances of other fields. Following the lead of those research priorities for the 80s, identified by professional leaders, presents a case for the psychological measurement of information processing behaviour.
