Abstract :
The growing usage of cyber resources like forums, chat groups, browsing, demands the modeling of a framework that may use an individual\´s personality profile for simulating the user\´s personality in the cyberspace, Acting as a guard and guide for the respective user by determining Internet resource suitability and monitoring & controlling the user\´s social interactions with other users on the Web. In this paper, we exploit some notions of psychology and cognitive sciences to present a model of an agent framework where agents (we call "social agents") monitor the activities of Internet users to build & update profiles to create socio-culture community of the similar interests in the cyberspace. Framework also guides the users what is good and what is bad for them on the Internet according to their profile.
