Studies in Ecological Rationality [PDF]
Topics in Cognitive Science, 2021 AbstractEcological rationality represents an alternative to classic frameworks of rationality. Extending on Herbert Simon's concept of bounded rationality, it holds that cognitive processes, including simple heuristics, are not per se rational or irrational, but that their success rests on their degree of fit to relevant environmental structures.

A Generative View of Rationality and Growing Awareness†
Frontiers in Psychology, 2022 In this paper we contrast bounded and ecological rationality with a proposed alternative, generative rationality. Ecological approaches to rationality build on the idea of humans as “intuitive statisticians” while we argue for a more generative ...
