摘要
Reijo Savolainen是2016年ASIS&T信息科学研究奖的获得者,她观察到对信息行为的研究往往更倾向于工作场所的背景,但关注日常生活中的信息寻求(ELIS)将信息行为带入了日常生活的领域。利用Brenda Dervin的意义构建方法,对ELIS的研究可以阐明许多不同领域和圈子中个人的信息寻求行为。对环境活动家、购房者和失业人员的定性研究结果揭示了这些群体如何寻求信息来帮助解决日常问题。这些研究突出了信息源视界的使用和个人偏好的信息寻找路径,显示了人们搜索信息的程度以及他们喜欢在哪里开始和结束搜索的模式。虽然社交媒体在这些情况下提供了有用的信息,但在处理敏感或有争议的话题时,这些信息往往被遮蔽在情感因素的背后,因此并不总是可靠的,也不是所有人都能获得的。
Research in Information Science Award: Everyday Life Information Seeking
EDITOR'S SUMMARY
Reijo Savolainen, 2016 recipient of the ASIS&T Research in Information Science Award, observes that research on information behavior tends to be skewed more heavily toward the context of the workplace, but focusing on everyday life information seeking (ELIS) brings information behavior into the sphere of ordinary life. Using Brenda Dervin's sense-making methodology, research on ELIS can illuminate information seeking behavior for individuals in many different fields and circles. Qualitative study results from environmental activists, home buyers and unemployed individuals reveal how these groups seek information to help solve everyday problems. These studies highlight the use of information source horizons and preferred information seeking paths of individuals, showing patterns in how far people search for information and where they prefer to begin and end their searches. While social media provided useful information in these contexts, the information was often clouded behind affective factors when dealing with sensitive or controversial topics and thus were not always reliable or accessible to all.
