- Abstract
- Traces the history and development of cognitive research techniques in information science and surveys current research that relies on the cognitive aspect. Examines information systems that make use of the insights of cognitive research, including experimental and proposed systems. Examples include systems that are designed to make appropriate demands on user cognitive processing. Points out that cognitive research in information science has focused primarily on users of information systems and to a lesser extent on information intermediaries. Design initiatives deriving from this research have been directed toward developing information technology that can adapt to the knowledge abilities, and styles of individual users and that make efficient use of the knowledge base and cognitive process of groups of users
