Rationality is based on having appropriate data, models, and goals given one's context. Behavioral economics often assumes behaviors are irrational without considering individuals' perspectives. The document argues that what appears irrational may be rational for that person given their information and aims. It says rationality varies situationally and is better defined as consistency with one's reasons and optimal decisions given their constraints. Overall, rationality is a complex, relative concept rather than an absolute measure of behavior.
