A Human Information Behavior Approach to a Philosophy of Information
This paper outlines the relation between philosophy of information
(PI) and human information behavior (HIB). In this paper, we first
briefly outline the basic constructs and approaches of PI and HIB. We argue
that a strong relation exists between PI and HIB, as both are exploring
the concept of information and premise information as a fundamental
concept basic to human existence. We then exemplify that a heuristic
approach to PI integrates the HIB view of information as a cognitive human-
initiated process by presenting a specific cognitive architecture for
information initiation based on modular notion from HIB/evolutionary
psychology and the vacuum mechanism from PI.published or submitted for publicatio
