👉 Librarianship human experimentation typically involved researchers studying the effects of long-term reading, research-oriented work environments and library settings on cognitive function, memory retention, and mental well-being. These experiments aimed to understand how engaging with information through traditional book-based resources impacts learning and personal development. More recently, some studies have explored novel approaches like digital literacy training within libraries or using the unique social and collaborative spaces of libraries for conducting psychological research, including human experiments on group decision-making, stress reduction, or empathy building.
