    Abstract
    Part of a long term project which aims to develop a simple measurement scale based on user criteria, that will yield results applicable to the study of user evaluations in any type of information seeking and use environment. Describes 2 tests which were conducted to determine how users interpret criterion terms drawn from previous user based relevance studies. Presents results of these initial tests and describes conceptual and methodological challenges in long term development of the instrument

    Abstract
    The criteria employed by end-users in making relevance judgments can be powerful and useful indicators of the values users ascribe to a variety of factors in their information seeking and use situations. This paper describes intermediate results in a long-term project intended to develop a measurement scale based on users' relevance criteria. The five tests that are reported here have involved 350 users in an effort to progressively refine and validate the scale content. The range of research questions and types of users and information environments have gradually been expanded to assess the adaptability and transferability of the instrument. The instrument provides quantitative data, notably criterion importance ratings that can be analyzed using several techniques. The substantive findings confirm those of previous studies on relevance evaluation behavior
