Measuring the effectiveness of personal database structures DARRELL R. RAYMOND, ALBERTO J. CAÑAS, FRANK WM. TOMPA AND FRANK R. SAFAYENI University of Waterloo, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, N2L 3G1 Int.J, Man-Machine Studies(1989)31,237-256 (Received 28 October 1986 and accepted 3 March 1987) The increasing proliferation of electronic billboards, hypertexts, and other informal electronic databases necessitates effective tools for personal data structuring. An experiment was conducted to investigate subjective processes involved during structuring an online database. Ten subjects organized two hundred proverbs into hierarchical structures over four sessions and used their structures to solve queries. Structuring and retrieval activity in the online environment was markedly poorer than in a previous manual experiment. In both experiments retrieval performance was correlated to the level of distinction employed in the construction of categories. 3. Database Design for a Dictionary of the Future Frank Wm.
