Abstract

[Purpose/significance]To analyze the evolution characteristics of health anxiety before and after information search behavior from the perspective of phenomenological graph analysis, and to explain the internal mechanism of the interaction between health anxiety and information search behavior. [Method/process]By using the phenomenological qualitative research method, the interactive mechanism between health anxiety and information search behavior was deeply explored. Based on the I-PACE theoretical model framework, the model elements of users' health anxiety and information search behavior were analyzed from the four dimensions of "Person-Affect-Cognition-Execution". To construct a mechanistic relationship model between health anxiety and information search behavior. [Result/conclusion]The research results revealed that the interaction mechanism between health anxiety and information search behavior could be divided into four sub-mechanisms: emotional triggering, browsing regulation, cognitive control and behavior feedback. Based on these findings of this study, the cultivation strategies of public information literacy in the context of health anxiety were proposed.
