In this context, existing noteworthy works could be used for implicitly eliciting the users' cognitive styles based on the users' navigation behavior [9,10]. Another point relates to practitioners adopting the cognitive style elicitation process since the current paradigm of interactive systems might limit the proposed approach of applying cognitive style as a user profile and personalization factor.…”

“…The work is primarily motivated by existing research and theory that relates the Wholist/Analyst cognitive style to the way individuals navigate within hypermedia environments and the way hypermedia content is structured [8,9,10].…”

A Review on Clustering Techniques

“…Belk et al, concentrates on demonstrating clients' intellectual styles in view of a Web utilization mining procedures on customer route examples and snap stream information. Fundamental point is to investigate whether correct bunching methods can amass client of specific psychological style by measures got from psychometric test and substance route conduct [6]. M. Wu.…”
