The rationality of a fuzzy choice function is a hot research topic in the study of fuzzy choice functions. In this paper, two common fuzzy sets are studied and analyzed in the framework of the Banerjee choice function. The complete rationality and bounded rationality of fuzzy choice functions are defined based on the two fuzzy sets. An assumption is presented to study the fuzzy choice function,...

Rationality is a fundamental concept in economics. Most researchers will accept that human beings are not fully rational. Herbert Simon suggested that we are “bounded rational”. However, it is very difficult to quantify “bounded rationality”, and therefore it is difficult to pinpoint its impact to all those economic theories that depend on the assumption of full rationality. Ariel Rubinstein pr...

in recent decades, rationality has become one of the important and controversial issues in the intellectual circles. there are many philosophers who have put (and still put) under question the status of reason and human rationality. among those who believe in human reason is popper. to show reason's ability, he rejects positivism and justifying approaches totally; and, designing falsificat...

When established communication systems cannot be used, people rapidly create novel systems to modify the mental state of another agent according to their intentions. However, there are dramatic inter-individual differences in the implementation of this human competence for communicative innovation. Here we characterize psychological sources of inter-individual variability in the ability to buil...

The finite bounds on the rate and duration of physical processes is a natural resource limit for a rational agent, but processes are a not prominent in logical presentations of rationality. Here we consider some of the logical issues in portraying processes in a way which may help explicate linguistic and computational aspects of human agents, assist the design of artificial agents, and perhaps...

beliefs explaining the role the first set of beliefs play in the speaker's plan. Pollack's idea of ascribing a set of additional beliefs based on the intentions contained in the recognised plan is similar to our idea of ascribing additional conversational goals to explain why a plan is apparently inefficient. However, her motivation is to show how mistaken beliefs in dialogue can be recognised ...

METHOD the communicative functions expressed by six therapists in interaction with six patients each were analyzed, constituting 36 profiles of communicative functions expressed by the dyad therapist-patien...

D and normative modeling of decision making under risk and uncertainty have grown apart over the past decade. Psychological models attempt to accommodate the numerous violations of rationality axioms, including independence and transitivity. Meanwhile, normatively oriented decision analysts continue to insist on the applied usefulness of the subjective expected utility (SEU) model. As this gap ...
