- Abstract
- Reviews the form and application of information abstraction in an information retrieval interface. Discusses the results of an explanatory study undertaken to develop an understanding of the information search strategy and the decision strategy used, and whether these strategies were related. Describes the design of an experimental interface to evaluate its effects. Discusses an experiment where data were collected on the activities of subjects while they used an interface to solve an alternative ranking problem. Presents an analysis of the data, conclusions and implications of the study
