Abstract: The relative effectiveness of indexing using full-text or less than full-text was tested using a non-Boolean, chaining type of file structure and searching method. Indexing was done using titles, abstracts, full-text, references, and various combinations of these surrogates and then Goffman's indirect method of information retrieval was used to structure and search the file. The database consisted of 733 documents and 38 queries were searched. The hypothesis of the study was that by using a particular non-Bool… Show more

“…Structural information can be exploited at several stages of the information retrieval process: firstly, the indexing stage, where document components are identified and indexed as separate, but related, units (Cleveland, Cleveland andWise 1984, Tenopir andRo 1990); secondly, the retrieval stage, using passage retrieval (e.g. Salton et al 1993), data modelling approaches (Burkowski 1992, Navarro andBaeza-Yates 1995), or aggregation-based approaches (e.g.…”
