SummaryA study introducing Wistful, a research probe that captures 'creative reading traces' during open-ended scholarly exploration. Testing with 16 HCI researchers found that familiarity and personal interests shape reading paths, and that trace artifacts make browsing differences visible for reflection and comparison.
Why it mattersMaps how researchers actually browse before formal search, suggesting trace artifacts as a low-overhead way to surface and compare reading strategies across teams.
