The adaptability of the theory of integrative levels to a generalised classification scheme is questioned in that its hypotheses have not been adequately developed and confirmed. It is suggested that not enough cognisance has been taken of twentieth century relativistic thinking in which space-time is treated as a continuum. (14 references)…

Peer reviewedGreen, Rebecca – Journal of Documentation, 1995
Presents criteria for an effective syntagmatic relator system and describes how conceptual syntagmatic relationships are expressed in natural language, commenting on the adequacy of such expressions for document retrieval systems. Only one type of expression, a gestalt structure, represented as a frame, conforms to the criteria. (Author/JKP)

Peer reviewedBrier, Soren – Journal of Documentation, 1996
Explains an interdisciplinary framework for library information science, especially information retrieval, which considers sociocultural context of search terms in a way that the cognitivist information processing paradigm does not. Limitations of cognitivist information processing conceptions are discussed, as well as the possible effects of the…
