Ecological rationality and human needs

Abstract

O modelo de escolha racional universal em economia distorce a realidade a criar uma profecia autorrealizadora. Enquanto a disciplina economia comportamental tentou conceptualizar comportamento efetivo de indivíduos, dando uma introdução a vários conceitos filosóficos e psicológicos, a disciplina continua limitada em termos de abstrações, descrições e interpretações. O estudo presente explorou várias realidades de escolha ecologicamente racional via a análise da primeira “eco” da mente, o corpo humano, e os seus efeitos em relação à cognição e decisão. Como necessidades humanas têm sido delimitados por vários psicólogos, os efeitos cognitivos serão explorados, analisados e explicados de forma a sugerir uma relação causal entre necessidades humanas universais e valores humanos básicos. Enquanto a metodologia se baseia numa análise de dados secundários, a abordagem pragmática permite criar uma correspondência linguística entre necessidades humanas e valores humanos por vias de raciocínio abdutivo. Ao todo, necessidades humanas aparentam uma variável fundamental de racionalidade ecológica visto que não se limitam a influenciar a consciência e cognição individual, mas também aparentam afetar o bem-estar e valores individuais.

The pervasive Rational Agent Model distorts reality by creating a self-fulfilling prophecy. While behavioral economics tried to conceptualize actual behavior of individuals, giving an introduction into various philosophical and psychological aspects of rationality and human choice, it remains rather limited in terms of abstractions, descriptions and interpretations. The present research explores realms of individual ecological rationality by analyzing the first environment of the mind, the human body, and its effects on cognition and decisions. As human needs have been identified by various psychologists, the effects on the mind will be explored, described and explained in order to suggest a causal relationship between universal human needs and basic human values. While, the method of research was a secondary data analysis, a pragmatic research approach permitted a linguistical correspondence between human needs and human values via abductive reasoning. Overall, human needs seem a fundamental variable of ecological rationality as they not only influence consciousness and cognition but seem to have a tremendous effect on well-being and values.
