Descripción:The aim of the article is to identify the theoretical positions that influence information behavior studies for the Cuban university context. Content analysis was used to study the theories that influence the study. It was determined that: 1) the CHI studies imply an interdisciplinary vision for the complexity of its epistemological, theoretical and practical body, 2) The theories that more precisely fit the CHI studies in the Cuban university context are: Cognitive Perspective, Zipf Principle or Least Effort, General Theory of Systems, Uses and Gratifications, Sense-Making. It is concluded that the Information Behavior discipline is increasingly legitimized within the Information Sciences with an interdisciplinary approach.
