Abstract

Search statements in this revision process can be viewed as a 'move' in the overall search strategy. Very little is known about how end users develop and revise their search strategies. A study was conducted to analyse the moves made in 244 data base searches conducted by 26 medical students at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Students search INQUIRER, a data base of facts and concepts in microbiology. The searches were conducted during a 3-week period in spring 1990 and were recorded by the INQUIRER system. Each search statement was categorised, using Fidel's online searching moves (S. Online review 9(1985) S.61-74) and Bates' search tactics (s. JASIS 30(1979) S.205-214). Further analyses indicated that the most common moves were Browse/Specity, Select Exhaust, Intersect, and Vary, and that selection of moves varied by student and by problem. Analysis of search tactics (combinations of moves) identified 5 common search approaches. The results of this study have implcations for future research on search behaviours, for thedesign of system interfaces and data base structures, and for the training of end users

Abstract

Griesdorf and O'Connor attempt to determine the aspects of a retrieved item that provide a questioner with evidence that the item is in fact on the topic searched independent of its relevance. To this end they collect data from 32 participants, 11 from the business community as well as 21 doctoral students at the University of North Texas each of whom were asked to state if they considered material that approaches a topic in each of 14 specific manners as " on topic" or "off topic." Chi-square indicates that the observed values are significantly different from expected values and the chi-square residuals for on topic judgements exceed plus or minus two in eight cases and plus two in five cases. The positive values which indicate a percentage of response greater than that from chance suggest that documents considered topical are only related to the problem at hand, contain terms that were in the query, and describe, explain or expand the topic of the query. The chi-square residuals for off topic judgements exceed plus or minus two in ten cases and plus two in four cases. The positive values suggest that documents considered not topical exhibit a contrasting, contrary, or confounding point of view, or merely spark curiosity. Such material might well be relevant, but is not judged topical. This suggests that topical appropriateness may best be achieved using the Bruza, et alia, left compositional monotonicity approach.
