Abstract:

Human information interaction investigates the interaction between people and information with its multiple forms and purposes. That is, HII focus on the relationships between people and information, rather than on those between people and technology (as in human-computer interaction) or between people and the information agency (as in librarianship. The field of human-computer interaction (HCI) is an example of a relatively new field that is part of the HII area. It focuses on users of computers with the aim of defining principles and ways to present information that facilitate effective human information interaction. Computer interface is, therefore, the central object of study. HCI researchers develop models and theories of interaction, as well as methodologies and processes for designing interfaces and for implementing and evaluating them. In their work they rely on both technological developments and human sciences, such as physiology, organizational sciences, sociology, anthropology, and industrial design. The degree to which HCI researchers actually investigate HII varies. At the same time, the boundaries of HCI are elastic and constantly expanding. Investigating a conceptual foundation for context in human-information interaction, information, information retrieval, and information behavior.
