Popis: | In this paper, we analyze the impact of task time limits as described by 24 participants in an experimental study investigating the use of a search assistance tool, the Search Guide (SG), during four search tasks with varying levels of cognitive complexity. Participants were given a 12 minute task time limit and a warning notification when 3 minutes remained. In post-experiment interviews, participants reported two different impacts of the time limit on use of the SG: ten described using the SG as a way to save time given the time limit while five reported less SG use due to uncertainty whether it would contain useful information. Participants also described skimming and reading pages more shallowly, selecting easier to read search results, and bookmarking pages more freely because of the limited time they had to complete the task. |
