Abstract
The disclosed computer-implemented method for displaying search results may include (1) receiving a search query to search a document database that stores a document family containing a parent document and a child document that depends from the parent document, (2) determining that both the parent document and the child document satisfy a degree of relevance to content of the search query, and (3) in response to determining that both the parent document and the child document satisfy the degree of relevance to content of the search query, automatically depicting both the parent document and the child document in a hierarchical structure that shows the relationship between the parent document and the child document within original search results that a user interface of a computing device presents in response to the search query. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
