  • Information Wants of Seven Groups of Users Considering the Adoption or Adaptation of Instructional Systems. Interim Report. Twelker, Paul A.

Data were collected about the types of information of highest priority to the majority of the user groups and the differences between user groups with respect to information wants. It was determined that the majority of users did not possess the same information wants.
