Abstract

Investigates the cognitive nature of an end-user's relevance judgements using the concept of mental modes. Identifies situational factors of relevance by noting the judgement criteria used by subjects as they move through the relevance judgement process. Tests the feasibility of the specific research strategy employed in this study that incorporates an intensive case study of the search behaviour of searchers with naturalistic inquiry for which the cognitive development and situational factors of end-user relevance judgements are the centre of the investigation. Introduces a dynamic model or relevance on which the study is built, presents methodology, results and discussion

Abstract

This article reports research that explored children's information retrieval behavior using an OPAC in an elementary school library. The study considers the impact of a variety of factors including user characteristics, the school setting, interface usability, and information access features on children's information retrieval success and breakdown. The study reports the overall patterns of children's behavior that influence success and breakdown in information retrieval as well as findings about the intentions, moves, plans, strategies, and search terms of children in grades one through six

Abstract

Reports on a study at an elementary school in Washington, DC examining pupils' use of an OPAC. Presents this within the overall instructional environment of the school in order to open a window on the broader interaction of children, technology, curriculum, instruction and learning. Explains the methodology used in the study, the findings of the study, and notes a number of conclusions. Focuses in particular on the patterns of success and failure of children's use of the OPAC, their search strategies and the nature of their interaction with the OPAC

Abstract

Reports on a study of children's intentions, purposes, search terms, strategies, successes and breakdowns in accessing fiction. Data was gathered using naturalistic methods of persistent, intensive observation and questioning with children in several school library media centres in the USA, including 997 OPAC transactions. Analyzes the data and highlights aspects of the broader context of the system which may help in development of mechanisms for electronic access
