目的
在开发组织书目元数据的新模式方面投入了大量精力。然而，这些模型因缺乏适当的用户测试而一再受到批评。本文的目的是提出一个研究如何在书目系统的非专家映射的书目宇宙，特别是，他们如何概念化的独立，但强烈相关的实体之间的关系。
设计/方法/方式
本研究采用开放式概念图任务，对98名初学者的概念化进行外部化。概念图的概念化被识别和统计分析。
结果
研究表明，被试的概念化具有很大的多样性，在细节和粒度上存在差异。根据衍生关系，这些概念化可以分为两大类：那些应用直接关联文档实体的单实体模型的概念化和那些（大多数）应用通过高级配置节点关联文档的多实体模型的概念化。这些高层次的节点似乎是最充分的解释，无论是作为superwork设备配置属于同一书目家族的文件或设备配置属于一个共享的虚构世界的文件。
独创性/价值
研究结果对书目标准的制定具有一定的指导意义。基于概念化的多样性，研究结果还强调需要更多的用户测试的概念模型和书目最终用户系统实现这些模型。
Purpose
Considerable effort is devoted to developing new models for organizing bibliographic metadata. However, such models have been repeatedly criticized for their lack of proper user testing. The purpose of this paper is to present a study on how non-experts in bibliographic systems map the bibliographic universe and, in particular, how they conceptualize relationships between independent but strongly related entities.
Design/methodology/approach
The study is based on an open concept-mapping task performed to externalize the conceptualizations of 98 novice students. The conceptualizations of the resulting concept maps are identified and analyzed statistically.
Findings
The study shows that the participants’ conceptualizations have great variety, differing in detail and granularity. These conceptualizations can be categorized into two main groups according to derivative relationships: those that apply a single-entity model directly relating document entities and those (the majority) that apply a multi-entity model relating documents through a high-level collocating node. These high-level nodes seem to be most adequately interpreted either as superwork devices collocating documents belonging to the same bibliographic family or as devices collocating documents belonging to a shared fictional world.
Originality/value
The findings can guide the work to develop bibliographic standards. Based on the diversity of the conceptualizations, the findings also emphasize the need for more user testing of both conceptual models and the bibliographic end-user systems implementing those models.
