| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research project, we better understand people's critical Web searching behavior and develop methods of supporting people's critical Web searching behaviors. The main research outcome of this research project can be summarized as follows. (1) We investigated how people carefully search for the Web to obtain credible and accurate information. (2) We developed a method for mining alternative actions for a given query by leveraging a community Q&A (cQA) corpus. (3) We also investigated how the search behaviors and decision outcomes of searchers were affected by the documents they encountered during their search process.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
日々のさまざまな意志決定において，ウェブ検索を通じた情報収集が重要な手段となる一方で，信頼性の低いウェブ情報や，誤った情報の拡散などが重要な社会的課題となっている．
そのような状況のなか，本研究で開発した技術や得られた知見は，ユーザが検索している内容に対して，ユーザが気付いていない方法を含む情報の検索を促したり，ユーザがより多くの情報を獲得しようとするための検索結果の提示方法などに繋がる．
