摘要
This research investigates the information behavior of millennial students in the context of everyday-life health information. Data was collected using a mixed-methods approach of a survey (3565 responses) followed by interviews. Results-to-date show that while the students make good judgements regarding the credibility of resources, that judgment is not always reflected in the resources they actually choose to use.
