Peer reviewedAllen, Bryce – Information Processing and Management, 1990
Describes study of college students that was conducted to determine the effect on an information retrieval task of different ways of organizing users' knowledge. The effect of user characteristics on information interactions is discussed, and the note-taking instructions designed to generate different organizations of knowledge are explained. (20…

Peer reviewedRowe, Neil C. – Information Processing and Management, 1994
Discusses the use of natural language captions versus content analysis for retrieving multimedia data such as pictures. Topics addressed include using caption syntax; additional inferences from captions; supercaptions; integrating content analysis; and results of experiments on an expert system with pictures. (Contains 11 references.) (LRW)

Peer reviewedHoffmann, Eliahu – Information Processing and Management, 1982
This analysis of information contents of documents (i.e., network of nodes which represent facts reported therein and their conceptual interconnections) yields a method for quantitative measurement of such content. Basic premises, calculation, salient features of the method, and information theories are discussed. Four references, graphic…

Peer reviewedJarvelin, Kalervo; Vakkari, Pertti – Information Processing and Management, 1993
This content analysis of library and information science (LIS) research from 1965 to 1985 was conducted to determine the distribution of topics in research articles and the research methodologies that have been used. Results indicated that information storage and retrieval was the most popular topic and that empirical strategies predominated. (20…

Peer reviewedHarris, Jessica L. – Information Processing and Management, 1979
Presents results of a study using changes in language in the "Annual Review of Information Science and Technology" over a period of eleven years to determine the effect of such change on index vocabularies. (CWM)

Peer reviewedSalton, Gerard; Buckley, Christopher – Information Processing and Management, 1988
Summarizes the experimental evidence that indicates that text indexing systems based on the assignment of appropriately weighted single terms produce retrieval results superior to those obtained with more elaborate text representations, and provides baseline single term indexing models with which more elaborate content analysis procedures can be…

Peer reviewedSalton, G.; Zhang, Y. – Information Processing and Management, 1986
Briefly reviews various methodologies for constructing enhanced document representations, discusses their general lack of usefulness, and describes a method of document indexing which uses title words taken from bibliographically related items. Evaluation of this process indicates that it is not sufficiently reliable to warrant incorporation into…
