    Abstract
    As end users perform their own searches, more insight into their searching behaviour is needed. Identifies and describes the strategies, assessments and affective behaviours from the transcripts and keystroke records collected during 3 searches. The affective behaviours exhibited by the searchers show the involvement of other than cognitive activities in this intellectual pursuit. Particularly interesting is the single mindedness of the search strategies. Describes the searchers' online assessments of the usefulness of retrieved records including assessment strategies that were developed

    Abstract
    The study investigated the factors of response time, coverage, content and cost in CD-ROM and online versions of 2 popular databases: SilverPlatter Information Ins.'s and DIALOG's version of Psychological Abstracts (PsycINFO and PsycLIT) and Sociological Abstracts (Sociofile and Sociological Abstracts). Results confirm that, though the databases may be similar, significant differences do exist. Specifically, online searching gives a more consistent or predictable response time and yields greater currency, consistency and coverage
