Resumo

Segundo Herbert Simon (1969), a ciência do Design se baseia no processo de tomada de decisão do indivíduo sobre problemas que devem ser bem estruturados. Desta forma, o presente artigo tem como objetivo propor - como fonte de conhecimento pertinente à ciência do Design – o estudo das heurísticas, definidas como atalhos cognitivos inconscientes comumente envolvidos em todos os processos de julgamento e avaliação. Para tanto, toma-se como base uma revisão teórica da abordagem de Herbert Simon aos processos de julgamento e tomada de decisão, juntamente aos conceitos de racionalidade limitada e satisficing.
Palavras-chave:

julgamento e tomada de decisão, racionalidade limitada, processo de projeto

Abstract

According to Herbert Simon (1969), the science of Design is based on the process of decision making over well-structured problems. This paper aims to propose – as a source of knowledge relevant to the science of Design – the study of heuristics, the cognitive shortcuts normally involved in all judgment and evaluation processes. For this purpose, Herbert Simon’s positivist perspective of the decision making processes is used as a basis, along with the concepts of bounded rationality and satisficing.
Keywords:

judgment and decision making, bounded rationality, project process
