摘要
本研究从Yakel和Torres的档案用户专长(User Expertise in Archives, UEA)模型探讨历史学家的档案搜寻行为。该模型包含影响档案研究者信息搜寻的三种知识类型:领域知识、人工素养和档案情报。本文报道了人工识字相关的能力和行为。采用自然探究法对12名历史学硕士生的论文研究行为进行了研究。采用深度访谈法收集档案检索经历的叙述。采用电感常数比较和开/轴向编码进行分析。人工文化相关能力和行为分为外部批评相关能力和内部批评相关能力。前者包括三种能力:理解主要来源的生产背景,区分有意和无意来源的能力,以及应对语言限制的能力。后者包括两种能力:设身处地替演历史人物,从不同角度比较文献。UEA是研究档案用户信息行为的一个强大的分析模型。档案工作者应该关心领域知识和人工素养如何影响档案搜索的决策和行动。
Artefactual literacy-related abilities for historians’ effective seeking and use of primary resources
This study explored historians’ archival search behaviour from Yakel and Torres’ User Expertise in Archives (UEA) model. The model contained three types of knowledge that influence archival researchers’ information seeking: domain knowledge, artefactual literacy, and archival intelligence. This paper reported on the artefactual literacy-related abilities and behaviour. A naturalistic inquiry approach was adopted to study twelve history master’s students’ thesis research behaviour. In-depth interviewing was used to collect narratives of archival search experiences. The inductive constant comparisons and open/axial coding were used in the analysis. Artefactual literacy related abilities and behaviour were categorized into external criticism-related and internal criticism-related. The former included three abilities: understanding the production context of primary sources, the ability to differentiate between intentional and unintentional sources, and the ability to cope with language limitations. The latter included two abilities: putting oneself in the shoe of the historical figure understudy, and comparing documents with different perspectives. UEA is a powerful analytic model for studying archive users’ information behaviour. Archivists should care about how domain knowledge and artefactual literacy influenced archival search decisions and actions.
