Une des solutions au problème de surcharge d'information, consiste à organiser dynamiquement l'ensemble de résultats trouvés en thèmes . L'utilisateur peut ainsi naviguer rapidement dans le résultat de sa requête. L'objectif de cette recherche est d'examiner comment l'activité de recherche d'informations dans un domaine conceptuel précis pouvait être améliorée selon que les participants avaient à leur disposition la liste de réponses regroupées en catégories. La tâche consistait à trouver sur le Web huit définitions relevant du domaine de la psychologie expérimentale (...) cognitive. Les résultats montrent que l'expertise améliore l'activité de la recherche alors que la mise à la disposition de catégories d'informations affecte négativement la recherche. Les experts dans le domaine ont produit plus de reformulations mais l'absence de familiarité dans le Web tend à augmenter le coût de ces reformulations. Tous les participants ont passé plus de temps sur la page du moteur de recherche que sur les pages Web.The research presented here analyses the influence of two types of expertise on an information access task on the Web. Forty-six students were asked to give correct answers to 8 questions about definitions of psychological concepts, without any time constraint. Results show that both participants with good knowledge of the field of study and participants with high experience of the Web on the other had the best performances. Participants with low experience of the Web were less effective than the other participants. (shrink)

This study aims to answer the following research question: what are the problems and prospects of the development of Islamic psychology studies in Southeast Asia? This study used descriptive qualitative research and employs data triangulation during data collection. Documentation study, in-depth interviews and focus group discussions were used to obtain the data. Data were analysed using patterns of data collection, data reduction, data presentation and conclusion drawing. It can be concluded that Islamic psychology presents many problems and prospects for those (...) who are concerned about the development of Islamic science. The finding strengthens the perspective that there are three problems of developmental studies of Islamic psychology in Southeast Asia: (1) the discussion on the issue still focuses on theoretical integration and philosophical levels rather than on applicative ones; (2) methodological problems; and (3) polarisation of the capacity of Muslim psychologists. Apart from the problems, the development of Islamic psychology studies has good prospects. This indication can be seen from the following transformations: (1) from the formulation phase towards the research phase, (2) from comparative study patterns towards developing concepts of psychology based on Islam and (3) from a normative-cognitive approach towards the substantive-Sufistic approach.Contribution: Through this study, it is hoped that strategic attempts will be made by Muslim psychologists to collaborate and develop networks on designing more targeted studies in solving the various problems that arise around the integration of psychology and Islam at the ontological, epistemological or axiological levels.

Cet article présente l'apport des sciences cognitives à l'évaluation des systèmes de recherche d'information. Correspondant à une ouverture par rapport au paradigme «système» de l'évaluation, l'approche cognitive présente néanmoins des limites à la fois théoriques et méthodologiques qui sont présentées dans la première partie. Dans la deuxième partie, une extension de l'approche cognitive, qualifiée d'approche holistique, est présentée à travers quatre modèles qui illustrent le fait que l'enjeu n'est pas seulement de comprendre le comportement des usagers afin d'améliorer la performance (...) des SRI mais consiste à offrir un modèle plus général expliquant l'interaction entre l'usager et l'information.This article addresses the benefits of the cognitive viewpoint for the evaluation of information retrieval systems. Cognitive sciences gave new opportunities regarding the restriction of the "match paradigm" but they have certain methodological and theoriterical limitations which are presented in the first part of this article. In the second part, an extension of the cognitive viewpoint, named the holistic approach, is presented using four exemples. This approach brings out a new challenge - not just to improve the systems' performances but to give an overall understanding model of the interaction between the user and the information process.
