**Key person**: [[:people:Reijo Savolainen]] (1995)

* Question:
** "to elaborate the role of social and cultural factors that affect people's way of preferring and using information source in everyday setting".
** not job-related information seeking
* assumptions: "even through individuals select and use various sources to solve problems or make sense of their everyday world, the source preferences and use patterns are ultimately socially conditioned."(p.143)

* Way of life [生活方式]
** based on [[:people:Pierre Bourdieu]]'s habitus: "socially and culturally determined system of thinking, perception, and evaluation, internalized by the individual."
** Way of life: "order of things, which based on the choices that individuals make, ultimately oriented by the factors constituting habitus.
** Things: "stand for various activities taking place in the daily life world, including not only job but also necessary reproductive tasks such as household care and voluntary activities (hobbies)."
** Order: "refer to preferences given to these activities."

** natural of hobbies [嗜好的本質]

* mastery of life [生活嫻熟]
** [生活方式]的再生產
** 與實用的問題解決相關連
** "Information seeking is an integral component of mastery of life, which aim is to eliminate a continual dissonance between perception of 'how things are at this moment' and 'how they should be'." \\ 資訊尋求是[生活嫻熟]中一個主要的整合性元件。資訊尋求的目的是減少對事物「實然」與「應然」間的不協調感。
