Comparing Axiomatic and Ecological Theories of Rationality: The Case for an Internalist Ecological Rationality
The realization in the last century that observed human behavior often deviates from the predictions of traditional axiomatic theories of rationality (henceforth “TATs”), e.g. [6],[8], has led to a revival of the philosophical problem of developing a credible philosophical theory of rationality. In particular, the concept of ecological rationality (“ECO”) has been developed as a competitor to T...
متن کاملThe consistency and ecological rationality approaches to normative bounded rationality
This paper focuses on tacit versus explicit uses of plural performance metrics as a primary methodological characteristic. This characteristic usefully distinguishes two schools of normative analysis and their approaches to normative interpretations of bounded rationality. Both schools of thought make normative claims about bounded rationality by comparing the performance of decision procedures...
متن کاملModels of ecological rationality: the recognition heuristic.
One view of heuristics is that they are imperfect versions of optimal statistical procedures considered too complicated for ordinary minds to carry out. In contrast, the authors consider heuristics to be adaptive strategies that evolved in tandem with fundamental psychological mechanisms. The recognition heuristic, arguably the most frugal of all heuristics, makes inferences from patterns of mi...
متن کاملRationality in economics: Constructivist and ecological forms
Rationality is a widely used, overused and misused term in twentieth century economic discourse. In this volume of essays, Vernon Smith puts human rationality in the context of larger cultural processes that shape our institutions, society, and us. Given the fog surrounding rationality, this brilliant volume has arrived none too soon. Smith questions the routine assumptions made in all aspects ...
متن کاملEnvironments That Make Us Smart Ecological Rationality
Traditional views of rationality posit generalpurpose decision mechanisms based on logic or optimization. The study of ecological rationality focuses on uncovering the ‘‘adaptive toolbox’’ of domain-specific simple heuristics that real, computationally bounded minds employ, and explaining how these heuristics produce accurate decisions by exploiting the structures of information in the environm...
