Abstract

Examines the challenge for librarians presented with members of the public wanting to make use of the Internet, who may anticipate that finding information on the WWW is a relative straightforward matter. Looks at the kind of guidance needed in using both the Windows operating system and Web browsers. Points out that users will have to learn how to cope with the frustrations inherent to the current realities of the Internet, and specific problems such as the need for absolute precision when entering Web addresses. Reference interviews may be required to determine whether the Web is the best source for the information sought in a particular instance, to help formulate appropriate search strategies, and evaluate and present the information that users retrieve

Abstract

Internet use research has focused on user surveys and novice learner studies, using survey, experimental, and ethnographic methods. They share a focus on user-based categories in the affective and cognitve domains. Information behaviour has an affective component that influences the direction of cognitive processing through hierarchically organized goals, characterized by both an individual and a cultural component. Research in human-computer interaction is evolving a user-centred methodology for system design and instruction that focuses on integrating affective and cognitive user variables to increase productivity, creativity, and human growth

Abstract

Warum eigens eine Methode zur Analyse fundamentalistischer Agitation im Internet? Weil der semiotische Universalcharakter des Intemets, d.h. die Verflechtung von Bild, Sprache und Schrift die Möglichkeiten revolutioniert, Welt zu konstruieren und wahrzunehmen. Weil im multimedialen Raum des Internets das demokratischste Prinzip von Demokratie enthalten ist: "Unbestimmtheit". Weil Fundamentalismus diese Unbestimmtheit vernichten muss.

Abstract

Datenautobahnen, interaktives Fernsehen, Multimedia, Mailboxen und Internet - diese und andere Begriffe geistern nun schon seit einiger Zeit durch die Medien. Die einen versprechen sich von den neuen Medientechnologien, daß die Menschen zukünftig besser, schneller und weltweit miteinander kommunizieren und sich informieren können. Somit könnten die Medien nun endlich einen angemessenen Beitrag zur Demokratisierung leisten. Andere Stimmen hingegen weisen auf Konzentrationsprozesse im Mediensektor hin, die mit dem Aufbau der neuen Medien verbunden sind. Auch die neuen Medien sind nicht frei von ökonomischen 'Zwängen' und Machtverhältnissen

Abstract

Godert notes that, having survived a period where we were drowning in information, we seem to be in a period where we are happily surfing the Internet. This communication considers the social implications of this change in fundamental metaphors about our relationship to information. It is first proposed that, though a paradigm shift has not occured, the significance of the change should not be minimized. The similarities and differences between surfing and drowning are then considered. Questions suggested by these similarities and differences are offered for consideration

Abstract

In unserer Informations- und Wissensgesellschaft ist Information ein kostbares Gut. Immer mehr scheinen wir aber in einer wahren Informationsflut unterzugehen. Die Nutzung des Internets als einer modernen Informationsquelle erfordert daher die intensive Auseinandersetzung mit der Qualität der Information. Außerdem stellt sich die Frage, inwieweit sich das Internet neben der Daten- und Informationsbeschaffung auch zu qualitativen Datenerhebung eignet

Abstract

Starts from the premise that meaning is not an intrinsic property of information items. Approaches to 'meaning' in diverse humanities disciplines, including philosophy, psychology, and the history of arts and music, are drawn on to enhance the understanding of meaning in the context of multimedia information retrieval on the Internet. The approaches described include philosophy of language and meaning, psychology of language including repertory grids and semantic differential, iconography and levels of meaning, and representation of music. A consistent theme in all these disciplines is the recognition that meaning is context dependent and may be analyzed at a variety of different levels, with nomenclature and number of levels varying across disciplines. Identifies the strengths and weaknesses of searching and retrieval on the Internet with particular emphasis on subject content and meaning. It shows the limitations of searching using the most basic level of meaning, while attempting to cater for a wide diversity of information resources and users. Recommends enhanced retrieval interfaces linked to the needs of specific user groups and the characteristics of specific media on the Internet

Abstract

Wie ist Fachinformation einzuschätzen? So richtig als Ware mit einem Markt, mit Produzenten, Anbietern, Händlern usw. Oder ist sie ein öffentliches Gut. Etwas was uns kostenlos zur Verfügung gestellt werden sollte? Vor 20 Jahren hätten sich wohl die meisten von uns letzterer Ansicht angeschlossen, obwohl schon damals nur eine bestimmte Informationssorte (fast) kostenlos in Universitätsbibliotheken, Fachzeitschriften, usw. zur Verfügung stand. Heute hat sich die Situation grundsätzlich gewandelt. Dies ist sicherlich Ausdruck der gestiegenen Bedeutung von Information, dem Mehr an Information, das benötigt wird, um zum Beispiel ein Unternehmen in unserer komplexer gewordenen Welt erfolgreich zu führen. Es ist natürlich auch Ausdruck der Tatsache, daß neue Informationsarten wesentlich kurzfristiger zur Verfügung gestellt werden - denken wir nur an den großen Bereich der Fakteninformation - und daß dies wesentlich höhere Kosten verursacht als die früheren 'Darreichungsformen'. Nichtsdestotrotz hält sich hartnäckig der Gedanke, ob nicht vielleicht Fachinformation doch etwas sei, was zumindest sehr billig zu haben sein sollte. Aufschub erhält dieseer Gedanke seit kurzem durch die riesigen Informationsmengen, die per Internet quasi kostenfrei zur Verfügung stehen. Genau auf diesem aktuellem Hintergrund widmet sich der folgende Beitrag der Frage nach dem Charakter von Information: 'Ware oder öffentliches Gut'

Abstract

This article reviews selected literature related to the credibility of information, including (1) the general markers of credibility, and how different source, message and receiver characteristics affect people's perceptions of information; (2) the impact of information medium on the assessment of credibility; and (3) the assessment of credibility in the context of information presented on the Internet. The objective of the literature review is to synthesize the current state of knowledge in this area, develop new ways to think about how people interact with information presented via the Internet, and suggest next steps for research and practical applications. The review examines empirical evidence, key reviews, and descriptive material related to credibility in general, and in terms of on-line media. A general discussion of credibility and persuasion and a description of recent work on the credibility and persuasiveness of computer-based applications is presented. Finally, the article synthesizes what we have learned from various fields, and proposes a model as a framework for much-needed future research in this area

Abstract

Trust in information is developing into a vitally important topic as the Internet becomes increasingly ubiquitous within society. Although many discussions of trust in this environment focus on issues like security, technical reliability, or e-commerce, few address the problem of trust in the information obtained from the Internet. The authors assert that there is a strong need for theoretical and empirical research on trust within the field of information science. As an initial step, the present study develops a model of trust in digital information by integrating the research on trust from the behavioral and social sciences with the research on information quality and human- computer interaction. The model positions trust as a key mediating variable between information quality and information usage, with important consequences for both the producers and consumers of digital information. The authors close by outlining important directions for future research on trust in information science and technology.

Abstract

This exploratory study contributes to research on relevance assessment by specifying criteria that are used in the judgment of information quality and credibility in Internet discussion forums. To this end, 4,739 messages posted to 160 Finnish discussion threads were analyzed. Of the messages, 20.5% contained explicit judgments of the quality of information and credibility in other messages. In the judgments, the forum participants employed both positive criteria such as validity of information and negative criteria such as dishonesty in argumentation. In the evaluation of the quality of the message's information content, the most frequently used criteria pertained to the usefulness, correctness, and specificity of information. In the judgment of information credibility, the main criteria included the reputation, expertise, and honesty of the author of the message. Since Internet discussion forums tend to emphasize the role of disputational discourse questioning rather than accepting the views presented by others, mainly negative criteria were used in the judgments. The generality of our claims is limited because we chose forums that focused on sensitive and value-laden topics; future work could explore credibility and quality judgment in other forums and forumlike venues such as question and answer sites as well as exploring how quality and credibility judgments interact with other aspects of forum use.
