Explain The Concepts of Rationality and Bounded Rationality and How They Relate to Decision Making

Decision Making in choice phase
                When choosing,  someone needs to make a phase so there will be a better choice that they get :
•          Principle of choice
Based on acceptance of someone that have the power to choose and it based on their solution approach
•          Normative Models
–        Optimization
Based on the after effect of each alternative
–        Rationalization(Reason making system)
•          More of good things, less of bad things
•          Courses of action are known quantity
•          Options ranked from best to worse
–        Sub optimization
Decisions made in separate parts of organization without consideration of whole


Problem
•          Satisficing is the willingness to settle for less than ideal.
–        Form of sub optimization
•          Bounded rationality
–        Humans have a limited capacity for rational thinking
–        They generally construct and analyze a simplified model
–        Their behavior with respect to the simplified model may be rational
–        But, the rational solution for the simplified model may NOT BE rational in the real-world situation
–        Rationality is bounded not only by limitations on human processing capacities, but also by individual differences
–        Bounded rationality is why many models are descriptive, not normative
•          Too many choices

In Decision Support System (DSS) we can make a choice based on our logical (instinct), Ratio (quantity), and based on our reasoning too. That why it have a rationalization and because of it too rationalization is not quite good enough to real world or real time situation so people make a bounded Rationality so people can see how much they depend on rationalization and cut it off to make the ratio is not always correct
