Abstract

The purpose of the research was to investigate self-questioning behaviour within the context of a problem-solving situation in order to better understand the users' handling of their information needs. An experiment was designed to yield data to test the hypothesis that probelm-solving activity is reflected as successful and unsuccessful questioning behaviour. 2 different behaviours in questioning emerged to support the hypothesis
