Resumo

Esta pesquisa visa determinar indicadores-chave para avaliar a capacidade de transparência, autorregulação e participação dos usuários, as três dimensões da “prestação de contas”. Um ponto de partida metodológico triplo foi adotado: uma revisão sistemática da literatura sobre indicadores de prestação de contas e suas características, um mapeamento dos meios de referência com indicadores de prestação de contas, e avaliação da mídia. Um sistema de 11 indicadores-chave foi obtido para medir e comparar sites de mídia e determinar se eles satisfazem as três dimensões-chaves da prestação de contas e os elementos associados. Tal sistema pode ser aplicado em múltiplos ambientes para fomentar o jornalismo de qualidade.
