온라인 데이터베이스 탐색자의 탐색 행태에 관한 연구

  • Published : 1991.12.01

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to find important personal characteristics that affect search process and outcome, and to formulate causal models about searching behavior, by examining the channels and the magnitude of the factors identified. The study was designed to conduct a quasi-experiment with 67 student subjects. A total of 29 elements concerned with aptitude, personality, formal education, effectiveness of online training, search process, and search outcome are measured and reduced to 9 variables. 12 hypotheses were tested statistically and path analysis was done to investigate causal relationship among variables. Finally 5 models were formulated.

본 논문은 탐색자의 개인적 특성이 온라인 서지 데이터베이스 탐색과정 및 탐색 성 과에 미치는 영향을 구명하여 탐색 행태에 관한 모형을 구축하기 위한 것이다. 도서관학과 재학생들을 피험자(N=67)로 하여 측정한 적성, 성격, 정규 교육, 온라인 탐색 교육 효과, 탐 색 과정, 탐색 성과에 대한 29가지 요소를 기초로 하여 9개의 변인을 구성한 후, 12개의 가 설을 검증하여 영향인자를 식별하였고, 경로 분석을 수행하여 5가지의 인과 모형을 구축하 였다.
