This paper reviews related studies on users' query reformulation based on interaction between user and system during information seeking. It categorizes the studies into types and patterns of query reformulation, effectiveness of query reformulation, factors' effect on query reformulation and query expansion technology. Based on patterns of query reformulation research, we can know query reformulation sequences users used to reconstruct; combined with research on factors' effect on query reformulation and query reformulation sequences, system can recommend the most related queries to different user groups. Meanwhile, there are some limitations about the research on users' query reformulation now. Though researchers pay close attention on query reformulation from retrieval system aspect, there are few paper studies query reformulation from users' aspect in Chinese literature.
Key words: information seeking; information user; query reformulation; review
