This paper proposes a functional ontology of reputation for agents. The goal of this ontology is twofold. First, to put together the broad knowledge about reputation produced in some areas of interest such as psychology and artificial intelligence, mainly multi-agent systems. Second, to represent that knowledge in a structured form. The functional ontology of reputation employs the primitive categories of knowledge used in the Functional Ontology of Law proposed by Valente [16] . We claim that the concepts of the legal world can be used to model the social world, through the extension of the concept of legal rule to social norm and the internalization of social control mechanisms in the agent's mind, so far externalized in legal institutions
In REF , for example, a functional ontology of reputation for agents is proposed.
