Applied Impact Evaluation
Bounded rationality refers to the concept that individuals make decisions based on limited information, cognitive constraints, and the time available to them. This means that rather than seeking the optimal solution, people often settle for a satisfactory one, influenced by their perceptions and mental shortcuts. It connects to how behavioral insights and nudges can be applied to improve decision-making processes by understanding the limitations of human reasoning.
