[ Sorry, I could not resist the meta-level subject line. ]

I am looking for references about how humans collect information,
especially when starting from (near-)scratch. That is, how do we
determine where to look, how do we look, and how do we evaluate the
relevance of the information.

So far, I have mainly been looking at the Decision-Making literature,
but they generally assume that you use the available information to
search for a solution. I am more interested in how the information
is obtained.

To put this request into context, I am investigating the possibility
of a more rigid foundation for debugging techniques than today's ad
hoc approaches.
