Abstract
The notion of rationality is important to many fields in social and behavioral sciences. Herbert Simon’s seminal work on bounded rationality and satisficing led to broadened conceptions of rationality, which significantly impacted on the social and behavioral sciences. In this chapter, I would like to further explore the notion of rationality, on the basis of Simon’s work. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
