English abstract

Starting from a literature review on concepts related to information-seeking behaviour, the paper presents and compares two models of information seeking: a behavioural model, developed by David Ellis from a study on Social Scientist, and a model of a process, developed by Carol Kuhlthau from a study of undergraduate students. It concludes that both models offer valid theoretical background, even though Ellis´s model appears to be more appropriate for the study of information seeking in scientific contexts.

A partir de uma revisão dos conceitos relacionados ao comportamento de busca de informação, apresenta e compara dois modelos de busca de informação: um modelo de comportamento, desenvolvido por David Ellis através do estudo de cientistas sociais, e um modelo de processo, criado por Carol Kuhlthau a partir do estudo de alunos de graduação. Conclui que ambos representam referencial teórico válido para estudos sobre comportamento informacional, embora o modelo de Ellis seja mais apropriado para compreender os fenômenos de busca de informação associados à comunicação científica.
