Abstract

This paper interrelates the areas of Applied Social Sciences (Journalism), Cognitive Sciences (Cognitive Psychology) and Exact Sciences (Computing Sciences) in the analysis of the possibility of the construction of computational technological artifacts and the use of Decision Support Systems (DSS), which might enable journalists to improve their decision-making processes and, consequently, the quality of the informative content of social relevance produced and distributed by various means of communication.
