Feedback in Information Retrieval.

Spink, Amanda; Losee, Robert M.

Annual Review of Information Science and Technology (ARIST), v31 p33-78 1996

As Information Retrieval (IR) has evolved, it has become a highly interactive process, rooted in cognitive and situational contexts. Consequently the traditional cybernetic-based IR model does not suffice for interactive IR or the human approach to IR. Reviews different views of feedback in IR and their relationship to cybernetic and social feedback models. (Contains 177 references.) (PEN)
