CONVERGENCIES BETWEEN INFORMATION, IMAGINATION AND NEUROSCIENCES IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF A CONCEPTUAL REPERTOIRE ON EMOTIONS AND DECISION-MAKING IN THE COMPOSITION OF GILBERT DURAND’S ANTHROPOLOGICAL PATH

The project aims to develop a biopsychocultural basis for the study of the infocommunication phenomenon from the contribution of the interlocution of the neurosciences and the imaginary with a view to contributing to the analysis of informational behaviors in the scope of Information and Knowledge Management. It is hoped that the research will expand the concept of anthropological path established by Gilbert Durand and verify the possibility of establishing a parallel between the brain regions activated by decision-making processes, associating these findings with research on the imaginary involved in the use of information in decision-making processes already developed in the Information and Imaginary Studies Office (GEDII/UFMG).
