SimonBroader topic: Simon made these limits central to his account of how people and organizations decide.Knowledge problemRelated: Limited capacity compounds the difficulty of acting on information that is already dispersed.Richard ThalerRelated: It helps explain why real choices depart from the fully informed optimization assumed in traditional models.Reinhard SeltenRelated: Selten studied how actual choices depart from fully rational equilibrium predictions.James G.
