This study analyzed query iterations and query length during image searching processes on the Web from a naturalistic approach. ...
It examined whether query iterations varied across contextual characteristics in an interactive Web searching process and determined if task goals and different content sources of query construction influenced ...
Results from the analysis of a Tukey test indicate that a mean of query length on local site (M=2.23, SD=1.22) is significantly different from one either on general search engines or image search engines ...
