The model has been found to be valid in the person to person communications among these scientists. However, the model has not been found to be applicable to the library or print media. It is suggested that if the latter media could become more involved in the feedback mechanism implied by the Havelock model then performance in the information world of the physicist would become more vital and useful. |
