Trends in information behavior research, 1999–2008: A content analysis
Résumé
A content analysis of articles published between 1999 and 2008 in the area of information behavior yielded
results directly comparable to previous research and demonstrated little change in research methods
employed, relative interest in particular user groups, or attention to affective variables. However,
interdisciplinarity of the literature has increased, and it appears that the proportions of researchers and
practitioners contributing to the literature in this area have reversed: now a majority of authors are
researchers. This suggests an increase in scholarly activity in the area, a finding consistent with other recent
reviews.
