Katrin Setio Devi; Ike Iswary Lawanda
Journal of Electronic Resources Librarianship, v35 n4 p269-289 2023
This study examined the relationships between information-seeking behaviors (ISB) of Indonesian academic scientists and their individual and environmental factors in the open access era. A total of 335 scientists from Indonesia's three reputable universities in the field of natural sciences, environmental sciences, engineering, health sciences, and agricultural sciences completed the online questionnaire. To interpret the correlation between scientists' behaviors, several regression models in the Generalized Linear Models (GLMs) were used. The study found that scientists' ISB was influenced by various factors, such as demographic, psychological, role-related, and environmental factors. The academic position was found to be the dominant factor influencing ISB.
