Experiments in Digital Literacy (2004, unknown): “…and branching information-seeking strategies and to construct knowledge from independent shreds of information that were accessed 10,12,28,29 in a non-orderly 30 31 theory, which described the importance of branching multidimensional thinking skills in constructing meaningful…”
The Turn - Integration of Information Seeking and Retrieval in Context (2005, methodology): “Studies of operational Web IR to a large degree have used log analysis (see review in Jansen and Pooch 2001) or surveys (e.g., GVU’s WWW user surveys (2001), and the Nielsen surveys (Nielsen netratings 2003)) as their data collection methods.”

Hourly analysis of a very large topically categorized web query log (2004, background): “Jansen and Pooch provide a framework for static log analysis, but do not address analysis of changes in a query stream over time [7].”
Automatic identification of user goals in Web search (2005, background): “A rather comprehensive review of such studies can be found in [29].”
An Iterative Approach to the Development of a Professional Development Intervention for Head Start Teachers (2011, background): “…of variability is consistent with teachers’ use of a hypermedia resource in our earlier PD intervention (Powell, Diamond, Burchinal, & Koehler, 2010) and with web use more generally (e.g., Jansen & Pooch, 2001), we did not meet the original goal of increasing all teachers’ use of these materials.”
Student Searching Behavior and the Web: Use of Academic Resources and Google (2005, background): “An informative review of Web searching studies by Jansen and Pooch (2001) compares the searching characteristics of Web information seekers with those of users of traditional IR systems, but their study separates out Online Public Access Catalogue (OPAC) users from general IR system users.”
Second-Level Digital Divide: Differences in People's Online Skills (2002, background): “…graduate students in information science programs (Wang, Hawk and Tenopir 2000) or at best college students in general (Cothey 2002)) making their findings impossible to generalize to the broader Internet user population (see Jansen and Pooch 2001 for a review of the literature on Web searches).”
Search log analysis: What it is, what's been done, how to do it (2006, methodology): “In order to facilitate valid comparisons and contrasts with other analysis, a standard terminology and set of metrics (Jansen & Pooch, 2001) is advocated, which will help address one of Kurth’s critiques (1993) concerning the communication of TLA results across studies.”
What are you looking for?: an eye-tracking study of information usage in web search (2007, background): “In 2000, Jansen and Pooch estimated that 1 in 28 of all Web pages that users viewed were search results pages [11].”
