Rational choice theory assumes that individuals make prudent, logical decisions that provide them the greatest personal benefit given available options and are in their highest self-interest. It posits that people are rational thinkers who have different interests and make choices in rational ways aimed at maximizing their own utilities or satisfaction, though a person does not fully control outcomes of their decisions.

Rational choice theory (RCT) proposes that all human behavior is rationally motivated to maximize personal utility even if it appears irrational. RCT views individuals as making choices by weighing costs and benefits to optimize outcomes based on their preferences. RCT assumes that individuals make rational decisions to maximize benefits while minimizing costs, and that social phenomena arise from the aggregate of individual choices rather than external social forces.
What is-the-rational-choice-theory
Rational choice theory is an economic principle that states individuals make logical decisions based on maximizing personal benefit and interests. It assumes people actively try to maximize advantages and minimize losses by making rational calculations aimed at increasing pleasure or profit. The theory also posits that social phenomena are driven by rational decisions of individuals. Rational choice theory models human decision making, especially in microeconomics, and helps explain societal behavior through rational choices consistent with personal preferences. It is increasingly applied in other fields like evolution, politics, and warfare.
Unit 2
Rational choice theory posits that people make rational decisions based on weighing costs and benefits to maximize their own utility. It assumes humans are goal-oriented and make choices by rationally calculating how different options fulfill their preferences. According to rational choice theory, social change occurs as the result of individuals making utility-maximizing choices. However, critics argue that people do not always make decisions through strict cost-benefit analysis and that rational choice theory cannot fully explain all social phenomena like altruism.

The rational choice theory, also known as choice theory or rational action theory, is a theory for understanding and often modelling social and economic as well as individual behaviour.
Structural Functionalism
The document discusses Structural Functionalism as a sociological theory that views society as a structure made up of interrelated parts that work together to meet the needs of individuals. Key aspects of the theory include that social systems maintain order and equilibrium through the interdependence of institutions, and that each part impacts and adapts to other parts. The document outlines the theorists associated with Structural Functionalism and its key ideas, assumptions, and criticisms.

Institutionalism
Thorstein Veblen is considered the founder of institutionalism. He developed a critique of orthodox economic theory and argued that human behavior is governed by instincts and habits formed by institutions, which are socially shared mental patterns. In his 1899 book The Theory of the Leisure Class, Veblen analyzed conspicuous consumption as a display of status rather than satisfying real needs. New institutionalism in the 1980s revived a focus on institutions across various disciplines like economics and political science. It views institutions as lenses for understanding these fields and reacted against approaches that neglected historical and social contexts. Traditional institutionalism deals with enduring social structures and the processes through which norms and rules become established guidelines for behavior over time.
DISS - Approaches - Structural Functionalism
The document outlines several dominant approaches in the social sciences, including structural functionalism, Marxism, symbolic interactionism, psychoanalysis, rational choice theory, institutionalism, feminist theory, hermeneutical phenomenology, and the human-environment system. It provides more detailed descriptions of structural functionalism and Marxism. Structural functionalism views society as a complex system with interconnected parts that work together to maintain stability and equilibrium. It analyzes how societal elements function in a manifest or latent manner. Marxism, developed by Karl Marx, focuses on industrialism and conflicts between social classes.

This document discusses the human-environment system. It defines key concepts like environment, system, and the coupled human-environment system. It describes how humans interact with and influence their environment through activities like farming, waste disposal, urbanization, and deforestation. These human actions can cause environmental issues like water scarcity, land degradation, and habitat destruction. The document also examines the strengths of viewing humans and the environment as an interconnected system.

Rational choice theory states that individuals make rational decisions to maximize personal benefits while minimizing costs. It assumes people rationally calculate costs and benefits when making choices to achieve the best outcomes for themselves. Key elements include individual preferences, beliefs, and constraints. Critics argue it neglects ethical and moral factors in decision making by focusing only on self-interest.
Symbolic Interactionism
Symbolic interactionism is a sociological theory that focuses on the relationships among individuals within a society. Communication, the exchange of meaning through language and symbols, is believed to be how people make sense of their social worlds. There are two main generations of symbolic interactionism. The first sees actions as always having meaning, while the second sees social life as a performance of roles. Proponents of symbolic interactionism, such as George Herbert Mead, Charles Cooley, and Erving Goffman, studied how meanings and identities emerge through social interaction and the interpretive processes used by individuals.

Diss lesson-5-dominant-approaches-and-ideas-in-social-sciences
This document discusses several dominant approaches and ideas in the social sciences. It outlines microlevel approaches like rational choice theory and symbolic interactionism, which focus on individual behavior and decision-making. It also discusses macrolevel approaches like structural functionalism and institutionalism, which examine larger social systems and structures. Structural functionalism views society as a complex system whose parts work together to promote stability. Institutionalism studies how formal and informal institutions influence social behavior by constraining and empowering individuals. The document provides overviews of the key concepts and premises of these different theoretical perspectives in social science.
Symbolic interactionism
Symbolic interactionism is a sociological perspective that focuses on the symbolic meanings that people develop and rely on in social interaction. It analyzes society by addressing the subjective meanings imposed by people on objects, events, and behaviors. According to this perspective, society is socially constructed through human interpretation of each other's behaviors based on the "definition of the situation." Fundamental aspects of social experience and identity like race and gender are understood as social constructs based on socially constructed meanings rather than biological bases. Symbolic interactionism rests on the premises that people act based on meanings of things in their environment, they learn these meanings through social interaction, and symbols like words and gestures acquire shared meaning in a culture through ongoing interaction. An important concept in symbolic interaction

This document discusses the key concepts of culture, society, and politics. It defines culture as the arts, customs, and habits that characterize a society or nation. It then explains some core elements of culture, including norms, ideas, material culture, and symbols. It provides examples of different types of norms like folkways, mores, and laws. The document also discusses concepts like values, technology, beliefs, artifacts, arts, and traditions in the context of defining and understanding culture.
Human environment system ppt
The document discusses the relationship between humans and the environment. It describes how humans and the environment interact and influence each other in a complex system. It provides examples of how human activities like overpopulation, intensive farming, land use, and water use can negatively impact the environment through issues like water scarcity, pollution, habitat loss, and climate change. However, it also notes that the human-environment system perspective highlights the interdependence between humans and nature and how humans can work to protect the environment.
ECONOMIC INSTITUTION
Economic institutions are the formal and informal rules that organize economic activity in a society by answering questions about what goods and services should be produced, how they should be produced, and for whom. They help establish reciprocity through gift exchanges that provide both economic and social gains. Economic institutions also facilitate transfer payments and redistribution through taxation, pensions, and other means to transfer income and wealth.
Topic 5 diss- marxism
- Society is divided into two main competing classes: the bourgeoisie (owners of capital) and the proletariat (workers).
- The bourgeoisie exploit the proletariat by appropriating the surplus value generated by workers and paying them only a subsistence wage.
- This unequal class-based system leads to conflict and contradiction that will inevitably cause revolution as workers gain class consciousness.
- The state is seen as a mechanism for one class to oppress other classes. A Marxist would seek to overthrow the capitalist state and replace it with a dictatorship of the proletariat as a transition to full communism.
Anthropology, sociology, and political science
1. Anthropology, sociology, and political science are academic disciplines that study human social patterns and institutions.
2. Anthropology examines human origins, cultures, and diversity across time and place. Sociology analyzes social groups, institutions, and how they influence behavior. Political science deals with government, politics, and the distribution of power.
3. Each field has sub-disciplines and seeks to understand humanity and social life in order to address challenges and drive progress. They take objective, evidence-based approaches to reveal social dynamics and mechanisms of change over history.

Structural functionalism - DISCIPLINE AND IDEAS IN THE SOCIAL SCIENCE
Structural functionalism was the dominant sociological perspective in the 1950s. It focuses on how social structures shape human behavior and how social institutions work together in a society. Two leading theorists were Talcott Parsons and Robert Merton. Forerunners included Auguste Comte, Herbert Spencer, Karl Marx, and Emile Durkheim. Comte saw sociology as the scientific study of society and its development. Spencer viewed society as like a living organism with interdependent parts. Functionalism examines how institutions function to ensure society's survival. Parsons analyzed society's core functions of adaptation, goal attainment, integration, and latency.

The document describes rational choice theory and how it can be used to explain individual decision-making and social outcomes. It outlines the central assumptions of rational choice theory, which are that decision-makers have logically consistent goals and choose the best available option given those goals. Experimental methods and laboratory experiments are also discussed as ways to test rational choice theory by studying individual behavior in controlled settings with financial incentives.
Discipline and Ideas in the Social Sciences
The document discusses the differences and relationships between natural science, social science, and humanities. It defines social science as the systematic study of human society established in the 19th century, with branches including geography, anthropology, history, linguistics, psychology, political science, economics, sociology, and demography. Natural science deals with describing, predicting, and understanding natural phenomena based on empirical evidence, with two main branches being life/biological sciences and physical sciences. While social science and natural sciences both employ the scientific model and use empirical data, social science deals with human subjects rather than objects and involves less control and predictability. Humanities encompass the study of how human experience is processed and documented through fields like philosophy,

Sports injuries can be caused by compressive, tensile, or shear forces and are categorized as either acute or chronic. Common acute injuries include sprains from overstretched ligaments, strains from muscle tears or pulls, fractures usually in the upper limbs, dislocations in joints, and concussions disrupting normal brain function. Chronic injuries result from overuse and lack of rest, such as stress fractures in long-distance runners, tendinitis from repetitive muscle-tendon movement, osteoarthritis from joint deterioration due to wear and tear, and bursitis causing sac-like cushions around joints to inflame.

Burns
There are three types of burns that vary in severity: first, second, and third-degree. First-degree burns only affect the outer layer of skin and cause redness, swelling, and peeling. Second-degree burns are more serious as they extend below the top layer and cause blistering. Third-degree burns are the most severe, damaging all layers of skin and potentially causing nerve damage resulting in an absence of pain. Understanding the different types is important for determining appropriate treatment.

The document summarizes Edwin H. Sutherland's differential association theory of criminal behavior. 1) The theory states that criminal behavior is learned through interaction with others in intimate personal groups where attitudes favorable to crime are learned. 2) Criminal behavior can be prevented by involving youth in prosocial groups where positive behaviors and attitudes are learned. 3) Authoritative figures like parents and teachers can prevent delinquency by being good role models, setting clear boundaries, keeping youth busy with constructive activities, and providing supervision rather than trying to be friends.
Law of motion
Isaac Newton developed three laws of motion that established classical mechanics. The first law states that an object remains at rest or in uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force. The second law explains how acceleration changes when a force acts upon an object. The third law states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Previously, Aristotle believed that a force was required for motion, but Galileo discovered through experiments that an object in motion remains in motion without force except to overcome friction. Newton later built upon Galileo's work to formulate his three laws of motion.
Differential Association Theory- Cunningham
Edwin Sutherland proposed differential association theory in 1947, which states that criminal behavior is learned through intimate personal groups and defines crime as a learning process that can affect anyone. The theory has several key principles: 1) criminal behavior is learned from interactions with others who encourage law-breaking, 2) this learning includes how to commit crimes and rationalize them, and 3) how individuals view legal codes is learned from others. Critics argue it does not fully explain why some from law-abiding families commit crimes or account for spontaneous deviant acts. While not complete, differential association emphasizes the importance of social influences on criminal behavior.
Differential Association Theory- Takina Morris
Edwin Sutherland developed differential association theory, which states that criminal behavior is learned through social interactions and exposure to criminal and anti-criminal groups. The theory proposes that individuals learn techniques of crime and motives by associating with others who engage in or reject criminal behavior. Sutherland argued that the more one interacts with those who condone criminal acts, the more likely they are to engage in crime themselves. He supported this with a case study of a thief, showing crime is learned through social circles. Sutherland also applied this theory to white-collar crime among respected professionals.
Routine activity & rational choice theory final project
This document discusses routine activity theory and rational choice theory in criminology. It defines key terms related to these theories such as routine activity, rational choice, victims, victimology, and reduced risk. It also presents survey questions about crimes people fear most, sources used to receive information on crimes, and how often these sources are used. Finally, it asks questions about mapping daily routines, experiences being a victim of crimes, and feelings of vulnerability.

This document discusses rational choice theory and its key concepts. It covers:
- The origins of rational choice theory in the work of Cesare Beccaria and James Q. Wilson, who viewed crime as the result of rational thought processes.
- How rational choice theory sees criminal decisions as being structured based on evaluating risks/rewards, economic needs/opportunities, and targeting vulnerable places and people.
- Criticisms of rational choice theory argue that not all crimes, like drug use or violence, are truly rational decisions.
- Situational crime prevention aims to control crime by increasing guarding potential targets, controlling means to commit crimes, and monitoring potential offenders. This includes techniques like defensible space
