In the current study, 20\nyounger and older adults performed ill-defined search tasks with a search box we implemented. In addition to the age differences\nin the quantities of search, results showed that there were qualitative age differences in allocating resources to exploration and\nexploitation across tasks varying in difficulties. Older adults were found to do more exploitation within one information cluster\nas defined by the keywords than younger adults. There was also age difference in the ways to reformulate keywords, that older\ndoing more total changes in keywords and younger doing more partial changes in terms of narrowing or broadening the search.\nThe links between search processes and the age differences in cognitive profiles were also discussed.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [], "section": "Member Abstracts", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/4w33c6wj", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Jessie", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Chin", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Evan", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Anderson", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Chieh-Li", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Chin", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Wai-Tat", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Fu", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2015-01-01T21:00:00+03:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/25886/galley/15510/download/" } ] }
